When Mercy Rises!

Mark 10:46-52

Blind Bartimaeus is a scriptural and real life example of a man who mercy rose up for. Through a cry for mercy he received his sight.

Jesus Christ is the mercy of God personified.
The coming of Jesus to the earth is the highest mercy of God to mankind.

It is sad when people don't take advantage of these times of grace we are in by accepting Jesus Christ and His message.
When you accept Jesus Christ into your heart, the morning star rises in your heart.
Jesus Christ is the morning star, He is the magnificent star that shines during the day and at night!

David the shepherd boy enjoyed God's mercy.
It is mercy that turned a shepherd boy into a king by the anointing.
David knew God's mercy. Psalm 23:6

From David's life we see what mercy does:
When mercy rises for you and within you, the kingdom of God comes alive to you (for David, the kingdom came alive to him by God making him king instead of Saul. God gave David the kingdom!)

When mercy rises, grace works for you.
It was grace that made David kill Goliath. Naturally David could not kill Goliath. Goliath had all the advantages. The five stones David picked up by the brook before killing Goliath represents grace.

When mercy rises in your life, your status changes for the better.
David went from a harpist who sings songs in the wilderness during his spare time when he isn't tending the sheep to an anointed musician whose ministration ministered to King Saul. This brought him closer to royalty which was his destiny. His status was starting to change.

When mercy rises in your life, your enemies cannot prevail against you.
David was a king who had so many battles to fight in his life yet he never lost any on the battle field.

When mercy rises in your life, you will not be at the mercy of men.
King Saul in his madness and jealousy wanted David dead. God never left David at Saul's mercy, in fact it was king Saul who was at David's mercy twice but David refused to kill him.

When mercy rises  in your life, you become enlightened to fulfill your prophetic destiny.
2 Peter 1:19
Mercy will give you a sense of destiny, direction, insight and identity.

When you show mercy, you are blessed.
Matthew 5:7
With mercy comes blessing.

Blind Bartimaeus received the blessing of a miracle in the form of his heart desire - the receiving of his sight.
The Jesus who restored sight to blind Bartimaues is till alive today, He hasn't changed.
Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever!
Hebrews 13:8

So our Lord is still in the business of granting miracles, restoring people, and working wonders in people's lives.
When Jesus was on earth He went about doing good, blessing people, and showing mercy.
In Christ Jesus, God has chosen you for mercy.
Romans 9:15

Be blessed!

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...

Healing For Your Soul Wounds!

Malachi 4:2 Your soul is a vital part of your life. Your soul is part of who you are. Your soul needs to function well for things to go well with you. Your prosperity is linked to your soul. 3 John 2 Your soul is the decision making center of your life. God cares about the state of your soul. God created your soul and wants your soul to function well. It is the will of God that your soul is preserved until the coming back of Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Your soul is made up of your will, your mind and your emotions. You need your will, your mind and your emotions to function properly and to be regarded as a well balanced human being. Your soul is valuable and the enemy wants it. Your soul is part of the reason you are saved and a part of God's kingdom. 2 Corinthians 4:3,4 We are spirits who have a soul and live in a body. When your soul is wounded As our natural bodies can be affected, so can our souls. As we can have physical wounds and sores caused b...
