A CRY FOR MERCY!
Scriptural Highlight: (Psalm 90: 14 KJV) - "Satisfy us early with thy mercy that we may rejoice and be glad all our days."
Mercy is the unfailing love of God towards a man. It is when God overlooks your weaknesses and your deficiencies. Mercy qualifies a man to do or achieve things he may not be qualified for. When mercy is upon a man's life, certain doors he would never have crossed opens for him without sweat. Mercy prepares the way for favour to work in a man's life.
However, when mercy is lacking, men struggle in vain; they labour like elephants and eat like ants. When mercy is lacking in a man's life, just like Cain in Genesis 4:5, even his sacrifices are rejected. Ever seen someone lamenting his ordeal before? How he served people well and did a lot of good, yet the good works are taken for granted; the payment he received after all these good works is resentment. It is likely that mercy is lacking.
People without mercy are never happy. Brother David in our scriptural highlight understood this well when he cried, "Satisfy us early with thy mercy that we may rejoice..." Beloved, may God Himself satisfy you today with His everlasting mercies in Jesus name. Flourish!
Pray: Father in heaven, satisfy me according to your word with your everlasting mercy in Jesus name.
