A Mercy

By Bro. Gabriel Bamgbose

Mercy is an attribute of God. It is one way God manifests Himself to us and one dimension He makes Himself known to us.

And in fact it is His divinity and miraculous pact with his creations. When we consider the registers of mercy, we find goodness, love, kindness, grace, generosity, thankfulness, forgiveness, and in fact  salvation and provision.

This means that  to obtain mercy from God is to embody the  fullness of His diverse manifestations. And of course, the nature of  God’s mercy is that it is multitude, infinite and everlasting.

But we should pay  attention to the singularity of “a mercy”. When we obtain a mercy from God, what do we do with it?

The Psalmist proclaims: “Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits” Psalm 103:2. A clear injunction to forget not His mercy!

The forgetfulness of a mercy is a grand obstacle to many of His everlasting mercies we should have received. Our God reigns in the abundance of mercies.

 As we validate a mercy by telling its glorious tale through the words of our testimonies and the continuance of our thanks and praises in the fullness of joy, we receive mercies.

May we experience God in the fullness of His mercies!

You will have good success this 2016.

 Remain blessed.

Shalom.
