It was so clear as I did my bible study this God is unexplainably and undeservely such a merciful God
I use the word unexplainable because the natural human mind cannot comprehend this and I use the word undeserved because man could never be "good enough" for his mercy.
As I read through many of the chapters in the book of Jeremiah this morning, revelations of God's great mercy pierced my heart and mind.
God pronounced the judgement for his people, yet he spoke of better things to come. God's message from his Prophets stirred new Hope in his people. Though they would have to endure much hardship as a consequence for their choices.
I then recalled the story in the garden of Eden when Adam and Eve had sinned. God pronounced the consequences of the sin but in his first action towards Adam and Eve he extended such great love, grace and mercy. God covered their nakedness with animal skins. Thus instituting a propitiation for the sin with shed blood from the animals and setting the tone for the ultimate propitiation by the spotless lamb Christ Jesus.
You don't have to stay in the place of sin and condemnation today. I pray God will extend such great mercy to you, but that he would also bring you to a place of being uncomfortable in sin. So that you can truly walk in freedom and enjoy such intimacy with him
Thank you Abbah Father for your great grace and mercy that prevails in our life.
May you have mercy on our families and children and draw them close in Jesus name. Amen
Walk good in Christ
Till we meet again
