THEME:
When You Pray For Mercy. III.

MEMORY VERSE:
Psalms 86:5.
“For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.”

TODAY’S TEXT:
Luke 15:17-18.
“And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise and go to my father and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we brought to the limelight the first stage towards receiving mercy. The question is, what do I have to do before praying for mercy? Beloved, the first thing is to forgive others their offences against you and you will receive mercy also. (Matthew 6:12)
Nevertheless, today we will consider the expected results of praying for mercy or while we need mercy. Why do I pray for mercy? When you pray for mercy, you are simply asking for pardon and restoration.
However, our today’s text speaks of the importance of self-realization, the need for a change in status and a better relationship with our heavenly Father. For mercy give birth to restoration.
In summation, it is good to recant what the scriptures say about our Eternal Father, *” For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.”* What a great privilege, call on God today and He will restore you through His infinite mercy. Shalom!

God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I will not joke with my self-realization, the need for a good change in my status and a better relationship with God; my heavenly Father.

PRAYER POINT:
Heavenly and merciful Father, help me to always remember the child of whom I am. That I may not be lost in the wilderness of life in Jesus name. Amen

When You Pray For Mercy. II.

MEMORY VERSE:
“Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.”
Psalms 85:7.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Matthew 6:12.
“And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the opening of this series, we considered what Mercy is, the importance of asking for mercy. So, mercy is simply asking for pardon or giving pardon to others as the case may be.
Meanwhile, today we want to remind ourselves, the first thing towards praying for mercy. As our today text states, we must put in mind, this scripture daily, *”And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.”* (Matthew 6:12)
More so, when we pray for mercy, we must be ever ready to forgive others. Mercy is a two-way currency, once given out, it comes back to you. It cannot be lost in transition, it must surely locate its owner.
In conclusion, when you pray for mercy, you are simply asking for the harvest of the mercy sown. Don’t forget, the measure you sow, you will receive in return. Be merciful to others and you will receive mercy from God. Shalom!

God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I will show mercy, that I too may receive mercy from God.

PRAYER POINT:
Merciful Father, through Your grace, help me to be merciful as You are and in Your mercy, have mercy on me, whenever I sinned against you in Jesus name. Amen.

THEME:
When You Pray For Mercy. I.

MEMORY VERSE:
“Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according to unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven these people, from Egypt even until now.”
Numbers 14:19.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Deuteronomy 13:17.
“And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to thine hand: that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In this first part, we will be looking at what mercy is all about. Let us not forget that, as Christians, we were taught and nourished with the word of God, for our elevation and spiritual growth. Nevertheless, Mercy or to be merciful is one of the Christian virtue a child of God Must display at all times.
Meanwhile, Mercy is that benevolence, mildness or tenderness of heart that disposes a person to overlook injuries or to treat an offender better than he deserves. And the scriptures say, *”Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.”* (Matthew 5:7) When you show mercy, you will receive mercy in return.
Furthermore, Mercy is a distinguishing attribute of the Most High God, and as Gods children, to be merciful is innate. “The Lord is long-suffering and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty…” (Numbers 14:18)
In conclusion, when we pray for mercy, we are asking for compassion, for reconsideration and restoration. As you ask God for mercy today, may He be merciful unto you in Jesus name. Amen. Shalom!

God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
Through the Lord’s mercy, I receive mercy, compassion and restoration.

PRAYER POINT:
Almighty and Merciful Father, in Your mercy, let mercy always prevail over every judgement set against me in Jesus name. Amen.

THEME:
For The Wrath Of Man.

MEMORY VERSE:
“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.”
James 1:19.

TODAY’S TEXT:
James 1:20-21.
“For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which can save your souls.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
When we say the wrath of man, what is the benefits or the consequences of it? Well, wrath is referred to as violent anger, a vehement exasperation of indignation. The effects of anger and some call it, the just punishment of an offence or crime.
However, what do the scriptures say about the wrath of man? *”For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.”* This implies that you cannot achieve God’s righteousness through wrath.
Meanwhile, we are encouraged to lay aside all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness. We must get rid of all that makes us appear dirty before God, our immoderate lifestyle, our malice and wickedness. All are engineered by wrath against man or God.
In conclusion, we must receive with meekness the engrafted word of God, which can save our souls. After which, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath. Simply because, the wrath of man, only leads to destruction. Shalom!

God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
By God’s grace, I will be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath and receive God’s word with joy unto salvation.

PRAYER POINT:
Almighty God and Father, through Your grace, help me be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath and daily receive Your word and instructions with joy unto the salvation of my soul and that of all people in Jesus name. Amen

THEME:
The Lord Is My Stay.

MEMORY VERSE:
“For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.”
Psalms 18:22.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Psalms 18:17-19.
“He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me. They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.
He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me because he delighted in me.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Are you troubled or faced with massive battles from unrepentant foes? It could be that the stormy wind coming your way is beyond what you can personally handle, and you are at a point of a great tumble.
However, in 2 Corinthians 10:4, the scriptures declared that “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.” Do know that your salvation is beyond you.
Dear friend, are you contending with powers mightier than you? In all of these, if I may ask, who is your stay? To whom is your protection? For the Psalmist says, *”He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me.”*
In conclusion, our memory verse established one important fact saying; *”…and I did not put away his statutes from me.”* That is, obedience is paramount to God’s protection. Are you in any way working against God’s instructions for your life? I beg of you, desist from it today and God’s protection will never leave you. Shalom!

God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus love.
