THEME:
Forgive To Be Forgiven. III.
MEMORY VERSE:
“Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.”
Matthew 5:7.
TODAY’S TEXT:
Luke 6:35-37.
“But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the last part of this series, we saw that forgiveness, has to come from the depth of our hearts, not just by saying, *”You are forgiven, but must be as a result of spring of mercy rising from the depth of your hearts to refresh a dried and dying soul with grace and joy.”*
Meanwhile, our today’s text admonishes us to love our enemies, to do good all people, to be merciful as our God is merciful. Judge not, condemn not, forgive and you shall be forgiven.
Furthermore, the gospel of John chapter 3 verse 16, expressly declared the unfathomable love of God to mankind, by giving His only begotten Son to redeem human race. Beloved in Christ, this feat came to be through God’s mercy by forgiveness of our sins, while we were yet sinner.
Conclusively, Jesus, the son of God has made a full and complete payment for our sins. Jesus offered to be a sacrifice that the wrath of God may be appeased, and the punishment we deserve, Jesus bears for us all. So, as children of the merciful Father, let’s show mercy and we shall receive mercy also.
God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
My bowel is full of Mercy and Grace to forgive all wrongdoings.
PRAYER POINT:
Merciful Father, let my bowel be full of mercy. And help me to show mercy to all irrespective of their sins colours and languages in Jesus name. Amen.
Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.
