Prayer For Divine Mercy

W
hen it comes to the rudiments of the Christian faith, mercy and grace are often mentioned; but in most cases, mercy is underrated. 

Mercy happens to be one of the foundations of Christianity and the pivot of salvation. When the first man fell, without mercy, God would had destroyed the earth together with mankind. But mercy stood up as the compelling force, pleading for a second chance for man. Mercy said, “No, man can't be destroyed, let's give him another chance.”

It was out of mercy that the Father sent His only begotten Son to save the world. When Jesus Christ took it upon Himself to be the sacrificial lamb who brought salvation to the whole world, it was all out of mercy. 

Grace finds no place in the absence of mercy. It was due to mercy that grace came to man, acting as the catalyst for the remission of sin. 

Hosea 6:6 KJV
For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

Even today, mercy still works for us and acts on our behalf. After our Lord Jesus Christ came to the world in the flesh to give Himself as a ransom for our sins, the Bible tells us that when He ascended back into Heaven, He sat at the right hand of the Father (as a High Priest) making intercession for humanity. 

Hebrews 4:15-16 KJV
For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. [16] Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

We can all admit that it is still out of mercy that the Lord went back to play the role of a High Priest, making intercession for us and asking the Father to give us even more time and chances for repentance. 

As Christians, sometimes we might mess up and disappoint God, but that is when the intercessory work of our Lord Jesus Christ intervenes on our behalf to give us yet another chance. 

Brethren, mercy is such a powerful thing! I wish we all understood how much we need God's mercy upon our lives each day. 

Lamentations 3:22-23 KJV
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. [23] They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

You'll notice that during our Lord Jesus Christ's ministry on earth, whenever people came to Him for help.... most of them already understood the principle behind swiftly getting God's help. They knew that if God healed and helped them, it wasn't because they deserved it. It was out of His mercy. 

Luke 18:38-43 KJV
And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. [39] And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me. [40] And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him, [41] Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight. [42] And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee. [43] And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.

So instead of asking Jesus directly for help, these people always asked for mercy. O how much we need the mercy of God upon our lives! You literally cannot separate compassion from the mercy of God. Whenever Jesus had compassion and helped people in scriptures, mercy was always the driving force! 

The help we need from God in our lives is all determined by whether God shows us mercy or not. God's help is a product of mercy; it doesn't just happen. It's not by merit. 

Romans 9:16 KJV
So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

When God shows mercy to a man, we can say that such a man has found favour with God; he is one that God has helped. It never because of a man's goodness, righteousness or perfection. I wish we all took time to pray for mercy, then we would always walk in God's favour, help, forgiveness, provision and protection. 

If you understand how much we need God's mercy, join me in prayer for His mercy below.
