ANCHOR OF LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE For THURSDAY, 8TH JUNE, 2023.
TOPIC: DIVINE MERCY.
MEMORIZE: “But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us.” Ephesians 2:4
BIBLE READING: Romans 9:15-16
“For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.”
EXPOSITION:
The only reason you and I are still alive today is God’s mercy. Divine mercy is that important (“Through the LORD'S mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23). We can rejoice however, that God is very rich in mercy and as a matter of fact, He is the Father of mercies, He gives His mercy to us as a gift every morning (2nd Corinthians 1:3 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort.”).
His mercy guides you in your journey through life. In His mercy, you meet certain people who help you fulfill destiny; you also avoid certain people or actions that might lead you astray. It is by this same mercy that we enjoy many things other did not. Exodus 15:13 says: “Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.”
God does not need permission from anyone to show you mercy. Romans 9:15 says: “For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.” While others may struggle, He can promote you effortlessly. If you ever want to get results, His mercy is the most essential factor.
“But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.” Genesis 39:21. Joseph enjoyed favour even in the prison because of God’s mercy. If you need anyone to favour you, seek God’s mercy first. He will grant you favour before them in the mighty name of Jesus.
PRAYER POINT: Father, show me mercy in every area in the mighty name of Jesus.
DAILY BIBLE READING IN A YEAR – Psalms 16-18.
