FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> The mercy of God is His loyal love for His caring for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exodus 15<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

God is at a distance where sin exists and does not accommodate sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With sin, one is short of the presence of God but without sin, one will gain the fullness of the presence of God. Romans 3:23 speaks to all, \u201cfor all have sinned and\u00a0fall<\/strong>\u00a0short<\/strong>\u00a0of the glory of God.\u201d\u00a0
With sin, distance from the presence of God will provoke unwanted, unexpected painful challenges that will take charge of all. However, with repentance from sin will seek the intervention of God, the mercy of God that will answer for regaining the presence of God, for coming out of the painful challenge.
Day after days, week after weeks, month after months, year after years, the mercy of God has been consistent to see you this far, not to become a victim of the wicked world.
Just as power belongs unto God, mercy also belongs to God.\u00a0
The mercy of God means God is compassionate and kind.
His mercy is with forbearance that does not runs out.
Only God that is in the position to render mercy unto all, unfailingly.
The mercy of God is no man’s merit but the goodness of God.\u00a0
God cannot be intimidated or manipulated by any of His creation for the release of His mercy.
God testifies to His mercy in\u00a0Romans 9:14-16, \u201c\u2026I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion. So, then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>
God\u2019s mercy is in place for all and nothing under heaven can displace or deny one which God is set to visit with His mercy.
It was with mercy that God led the children of Israel out of the bondage of over four hundred years. The Bible records,\u00a0\u201cYou in Your mercy have led forth the people whom You have redeemed\u2026\u201d (Exodus 15:13)\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>
In this wicked world, understand and know to live life to attain the mercy of God as the Bible records His word.
As much as God alone can have mercy on who He will have mercy on, the option is to plead for God’s mercy over one’s life undeniably.
AMONG WAYS OF PROVOKING GOD TO OBTAIN HIS MERCY ARE:<\/strong>
The mercy of God is attainable when one asks or plead for His mercy<\/strong>
God identified Job as a man with none like him on the earth; a blameless and upright man who fears God and shuns evil but yet Job was in need to plead for God\u2019s mercy saying,\u00a0\u201cFor though I were righteous, I could not answer Him; I would beg mercy of my Judge\u201d (Job 9:15).<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Despite God\u2019s testimony of Job, there was no excuse for Job to receive the mercy of God without pleading for His mercy.\u00a0
Just like Job, pleading for the mercy of God, Psalmist did the same saying,\u00a0\u201cHave mercy on me, O LORD! Consider my trouble from those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death.\u201d (Psalm 9:13).\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>
Know to plead for God’s mercy to receive from God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
