Some problems will go away when you forgive such person. It doesn’t work that way! No matter their offences, as a child of God, it is very important for you to forget and forgive him or her. And yet they want the Lord to forgive them of their sin. To some people, forgiveness is a difficult task to do. The evident of God’s mercy was shown in John 3:16 when He sent Jesus Christ into the world to die for man. In I Kings 11:13, God was merciful to the wayward Solomon God was merciful to Israel in captivity (Psalm 106:45 Nehemiah 9:31). He knows that he didn’t deserve forgiveness, he plead first for divine mercy and made his confession accordingly. In Psalm 51:1-2, David cried out to God for mercy. In a clear term, God’s mercy and love comes with ful grace. In this 100 days prayers of mercy and forgiveness, you must take it upon yourself to forgive.ĭivine forgiveness is a step towards receiving the mercy of God. But when someone you care about hurts you, holding on to anger, resentment and thoughts of revenge would not help. Inability to render mercy and forgiveness to your fellow person, it could be one of the reasons why you are passing through some attacks.
Many people sees forgiving others as a form of weakness or being guilty. To forgive a person comes with love, emulation, to look beyond the offences and stick together like brothers. Forgiveness is to pardon, vindicate a person, or to dismiss all offences. It is also true that God might forgive you of your sin, but that doesn’t mean that He has showered you His mercies. Judgment and punishment comes when we refuse to hearken to His words (Jeremiah 26:5). God doesn’t punish us for every sin that we committed, but there is a severe warning in Romans 6:23, the wages of sin is death. So, Jesus hates sin in man.įor example, a man who has been condemned or neglected by men, but the Lord is likely to remember such a fellow through his prayer of mercy. A sinful man cannot inherit the kingdom of God. The mercy of God comes when we fully realize that we have offended the Almighty God and repent from it (Matthew 4:17). The mercy of God comes when God didn’t punish us for our sin. He said, Matthew 5:7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy (Matthew 5:7). Jesus confirmed the importance of God’s mercies in our daily life. God’s mercy is so great that He will forgive us, provided that we forsake both our way (our wrong behavior) and our thoughts: “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts let him return to the LORD, and He will have mercy on him and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon” (Isaiah 55:7). The mercy of God is given to man by love. To obtain the mercy of God is not by right but its by grace.
But the Bible also said something very striking here: What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace of God may abound, God forbid (Romans 6:1). However, the Bible says, Lamentations 3:22, It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. We commit sin deliberately hoping that the God’s mercy and forgiveness will speak or save us from eternal destruction. In our world today, sin is highly a common practice among Christians.
