Mercy Found Me

 John 5:1-9

The man by the pool of Bethesda was found by God's mercy.

Jesus Christ is the mercy of our heavenly Father personified.

He was full of grace and truth.

John 1:14

Grace + Truth = Mercy

Grace is the God factor in a human life.

Truth is the person of God and the revelation of God.

John 14:6

When a person benefits from God's grace and experiences God's truth, it can be said that Mercy found that person.

If you are saved, if you have Jesus, mercy has found you.

Everyone who received miracles from Jesus was a beneficiary of God's mercy.

Mercy causes miracles.

Mercy makes miracles happen.

Miracles brings a new joy.

Acts 8:7,8

A new joy causes a new song.

Psalm 33:3

The mercy of God preserves lives and destinies.

The mercy of God can also bring people into their destinies.

David would have remained a shepherd boy in his fathers' service , perhaps all his life if not for God's mercy.

David was a great beneficiary of God's mercy.

Isaiah 55:3

God's mercy brought the anointing to David.

God's mercy took David from following sheep.

2 Samuel 7:8

David wasn't seeking to be anointed king.

Mercy brings to you what others fight and kill for.

The anointing meant David would be king and he became king against all odds.

The anointing is an empowerment money cannot buy.

Money cannot buy the anointing but mercy delivers it.

The man by the pool of Bethesda got a healing and deliverance other afflicted people had to struggle to get into the pool for and wait till the next time the angel stirs the pool.

He was singled out by Jesus out of many afflicted people by that pool side.

John 5:1-3

Mercy grants us what money cannot buy.

There's nothing we can do to earn the mercy of God.

This is why there's no room for envy and jealousy in the kingdom of God, we are who we are by God's grace.

We are beneficiaries of God's mercy.

If it is from mercy, grace, or faith you can't boast about it. It's from God.

When Jesus healed and delivered the man by the pool, the man became positioned to make progress in life.

He could now move on from where he was to better things.

Mercy positions us for progress.

Mercy brings healing and deliverance.

Mercy singles us out for what others want and labor for.

Mercy makes our dreams come true.

By mercy, we can flourish.

Jesus came for you.

He didn't come for angels, He came for you.

Hebrews 2: 16-18

That is the mercy of God.

Mercy places value on us.

If you choose or have the salvation Jesus offers, mercy has found you.

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...
