God’s Mercy

March 21st – Psalm 51:12

Psalm 51:2

If there’s anyone in the Bible that shows even the greatest can fall, it’s king David. Even though he was personally chosen by God, David committed horrendous sins. But what David’s story also shows, is God’s never ending love and forgiveness. For when David truly wanted to make a change and come back to Him, God eagerly welcomed him back. And God promises to do the same for us. When we return to God in true sorrow and repentance, He will forgive our sin, welcome us into His open arms, and faithfully cleanse us of our iniquities!

March 7th – Titus 3:5

Titus 3:5

What a wonderful God we serve. Knowing how wicked and sinful we are, God still wanted to save us. Not because of anything we did or could ever do to earn it. But all because of His amazing grace. And out of that grace, not only does He offer us salvation, but He refuses to leave us in our filthy rags of sin. Instead, through the Holy Spirit, God washes us clean, declares us righteous, and renews our hearts and minds. And all of this God does out of His great mercy for all who receive His precious Son, Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior.

Romans 5:8

Once we lived in darkness, eternally separated by sin from God. But because of His great love, God refused to leave us in that hopeless condition. So He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to provide reconciliation. Now, because of Christ’s death on the Cross, we are declared innocent and righteous before God. And through the blood of the Lamb, we become adopted sons and daughters in God’s family and heirs to His wonderful promises. And all of this is only possible through the amazing love God has for each and every one of us.

Psalm 63:3

Throughout his life David faced trials and tribulations. Yet time after time, God delivered him from his hardships. And out of a heart filled with thankfulness, David couldn’t help but praise God for all He had done. For David knew that a life without God isn’t a life worth living. God is our Protector, Comforter, Defender, Father, and Friend. And separate from Him and His lovingkindness, it would impossible to go through life and it’s difficulties with a heart of joy and peace. So David did as we should, and gave thanks and the glory to God for His continued love and deliverance.

Once we were eternally separated from God, dead in our sin. But because of His great love, God refused to leave us there. So He sent His only Son, Jesus, to become our sin payment.

It is only through the blood of the Son, that we are once again reconciled to the Father, welcomed into His loving arms, and can look forward to an eternity spent at His side. A gift that we cannot earn, but because of God’s grace, is offered to us freely and lovingly.

February 12th – Jeremiah 31:3

Jeremiah 31:3

Many times throughout their history, Israel rejected God. Yet in His grace and mercy, when the people repented and turned back to Him, God always joyfully welcomed them back. Why? Because in His unfathomable grace and love, God wants nothing more than to have a close personal relationship with His children. That means no matter what we’ve done, or how far we’ve drifted from Him, when we come back to God in true humility and repentance, He will receive us with that same joy. Nothing, absolutely nothing can separate us from God’s love, so don’t walk, run back into His loving arms!

Each morning is a gift from God lined with fresh opportunities. And there is no better way to start the day than in prayer. A prayer for God’s wisdom, guidance, and lovingkindness.

For God’s mercies are new with each dawn, and He will always lead us in the right direction. So today and each day, start your morning with God, trust Him to perfectly guide each of your steps, and give thanks for His  never ending tenderness and devotion!

As fallen beings living in a fallen world, we make mistakes. But no matter how badly we mess up, when we confess and repent, God is faithful to forgive our sins. And regardless of the mistakes we made the day before, each morning God gives us the gift of a fresh start. In His love and grace, the Lord offers every dawn as a blank slate and a new opportunity. And although some days will be good while others bad, every day we get to spend on earth is a gift.  So each morning thank God for His faithfulness and say, “This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it! “
