*WE HAVE OBTAINED MERCY*

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

James 2:13

 'For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment."

 God is not with great anticipation and excitement looking forward to judging anyone , he would rather forgive us all and save us from our sins . That was what he did through Jesus Christ. However, man has the right to chose between God's judgement and mercy through Jesus Christ. 

  Rejection of Jesus Christ is  an indication of the rejection of God's mercy , it is on this  basis that many will come under judgement. They chose hell over heaven and God respects their choices . 

    The mercy of God is a profound theme throughout the Bible, revealing His compassionate nature toward humanity. Mercy, in its essence, is God's willingness to withhold the punishment we deserve and instead offer forgiveness and grace. In Ephesians 2:4-5, Paul writes, "But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ."

Through Jesus, we have obtained mercy, not by our own works but by God's grace. Titus 3:5 reminds us, "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us." This mercy brings us into a relationship with God, transforming our lives.

In 1 Peter 2:10, Peter declares, "Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy." As recipients of this divine mercy, we are called to extend it to others. Matthew 5:7 says, "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy."

God’s mercy offers us hope, redemption, and a new beginning, a gift we are meant to share with the world. 

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to forgive .
