FAITH CAPSULE: <\/strong>The mercy of God is attainable when one trusts God and asks for forgiveness.<\/em> <\/u><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 Samuel 12<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is assurance for one who trusts to receive from God.
2 Samuel 22:31<\/strong><\/em> records: “As for\u00a0God, His way\u00a0is\u00a0perfect; The word of the\u00a0Lord\u00a0is\u00a0proven; He\u00a0is\u00a0a shield to all who\u00a0trust\u00a0in\u00a0Him.”<\/strong><\/em>
Trust God in God to gain the mercy of God.
Always, God is a good God.
With understanding, it is to trust God to attain mercy from God.
The Psalmist declared,\u00a0\u201cBut I have trusted in Your mercy; My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation\u201d (Psalm 13:5<\/strong><\/em>).<\/strong>
Trusting in hope positions one to gain the mercy of God.
With understanding, trusting God is an avenue to receive from God.
Trusting God is looking up to God with no doubt.Trusting God is having hope to gain from Him.
Jeremiah 17:7 <\/strong><\/em>records, \u201cBlessed\u00a0is\u00a0the man who\u00a0trusts in the\u00a0Lord,\u00a0And\u00a0whose\u00a0hope\u00a0is the\u00a0Lord.”<\/strong><\/em>
One who looks to God with trust and hope is set to gain the mercy of God.
Looking up to God with an open heart, one will locate God for His mercy.\u00a0
Luke 17:13\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>records,\u201cAnd they lifted up their voices and said, ‘Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>
God is merciful. He does not run out of mercy for one who knows how to trust and lift their voice to Him.
With sin, no one can reach unto God.
Sin sets one apart from God, but mercy belongs to God; He reverses the irreversible to give mercy.
With repentance, one who asks God for forgiveness will receive the mercy of God.
Understand and know to repent for sin before God to gain His mercy.
With repentance, God’s mercy is available.
David sinned by having Uriah killed after he violated the wife of Uriah.
God sent Prophet Nathan to David for his sin.
Prophet Nathan asked David, why have you\u00a0despised the commandment of the\u00a0Lord, to do evil in His sight?\u00a0You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword; you have taken his wife\u00a0to be<\/em>\u00a0your wife, and have killed him.
In 2 Samuel 12:12,<\/strong><\/em> David was told, “For you did\u00a0it\u00a0secretly,\u00a0but I will do this thing before all Israel, before the sun.\u2019 \u201d<\/strong><\/em>
In 2 Samuel 12:13,<\/strong><\/em> David responded with repentance: “So David said to Nathan,\u00a0\u201cI have sinned against the\u00a0Lord.\u201d<\/strong><\/em>
And Nathan said to David, \u201cThe\u00a0Lord\u00a0also has\u00a0put away your sin; you shall not die.”<\/strong><\/em>
It was the mercy of God in response to the repentance of David, not to die a sudden death.
In every repentance before God, there is the mercy of God that delivers.
Deliverance for David was the mercy of God.
Are you with understanding of God to know how to gain His mercy?
The Bible records,\u00a0\u201cFor You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You\u201d (Psalm 86:5).<\/strong><\/em>
God is good and merciful; no iota of evil can deny the mercy of God that is in place for one with the understanding of repentance that calls for the forgiveness of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prayer for today: <\/strong>Ask that the understanding and knowledge to gain the mercy of God be your portion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
