MAY ANSWER WITH THE MERCY OF GOD!
Seeing a new day demands giving a heart of thanks to God.
Giving thanks is not just thinking thanks, but opening the mouth and heart to give thanks to God, which will count before God.
At the time one is living, one is at the mercy of God.
Call or meditate that the moment is at the mercy of God.
JUST AS POWER BELONGS TO GOD, MERCY ALSO BELONGS TO GOD.
The word of God makes it known that out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. (Luke 6:45)
Proverbs 18:21 states, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”
This hour, day, week, or month, meditate on the mercy of God over your life.
The mercy of God is over law or power, and it delivers and preserves.
Meditation is communicating with God.
Prayerfully, one should meditate on the mercy of God over life, enabled by God.
Understand that the favour of God provokes His mercy.
Also, mercy provokes His favour.
Lot and his family were about to die a sudden death, but the favor of God granted mercy for their deliverance.
Genesis 19:19 records the testimony of Lot, “Indeed now, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have increased your mercy which you have shown me by saving my life.
Also, Genesis 39:21 records, “But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.”
When asking for favour, mercy answers, and when asking for mercy, favour answers.
Mercy, the favour of God, delivers from destruction to escape sudden death.
Lot testified that INCREASED MERCY answered for his deliverance from sudden destruction at Sodom and Gomorrah.
What prompted INCREASED MERCY for Lot not to be a victim of sudden destruction?
At the time of judgment for the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, God sent an agent to act as God commanded for destruction.
Lot received the angel sent by God, but he was reluctant to follow through for deliverance, so as not to be destroyed at Sodom and Gomorrah.
One point of disobedience, not to move in the direction of God, is an attempt to become a victim of disobedience to miss out on the mercy of God.
For Lot, the increased mercy of God answered for the escape of Lot.
Genesis 19:16 records, “While he lingered, the men took hold of his hand, his wife’s hand, and the hands of his two daughters, the Lord being merciful to him, and they brought him out and set him outside the city.”
The increased mercy of God is always in place to deliver the chronically disobedient to the word of God.
Lot experienced increased mercy not to be a victim of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.
In this wicked world, meditate on the increased mercy of God.
The mercy of God is above any law or government of the land that can work against the hand of God.
When the law of the land wrongly locked Joseph up in prison, the mercy of God answered with the favour of God for his deliverance.
Genesis 39:21 records, “But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.”
In the place, there was no help, but the favour of God answered with mercy for Joseph.
Daniel and his three brothers were to be terminated by Nebuchanezer if they failed to interpret his dream.
Daniel 2:16-19 records the act of Daniel, so as not to become a victim of Nebuchadnezer,“So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him time, that he might tell the king the interpretation. Then Daniel went to his house and made the decision known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. So Daniel blessed the God of heaven.
Evidently, the documentation of Lot, Joseph, Daniel, and his three brothers testifies to the truth of God.
The truth of God is His mercy, which answers for their deliverance and preservation in the hand of Nebuchadnezzar.
The mercy of God endures forever, and it is above all the laws and the makers of the law.
Throughout the Bible, the power of God is in His mercy.
Obedience is the character of love for God.
Jude 1:21 informs all: “Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.”
Live for God, know that God will have mercy.
Romans 9:15 records what God said to Moses: “I will have mercy on whoever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whoever I will have compassion.”
Ask that the mercy of God, that is above every law over the land, will not elude your life in keeping you.
Prayerfully, meditate on the mercy of God over your life in the days He has given you.
