DAY 30: SONGS OF MERCY III

 THE RHEMA WORD FOR TODAY

(A DAILY DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM)

 


TOPIC: SONGS OF MERCY III

DATE: 30 SEPTEMBER, 2021

BIBLE READING: PSALMS 25:1-22

VERSE FOR MEDITATION: PSALMS 25:7 NKJV

Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to Your mercy remember me, for Your goodness’ sake, O LORD.

 

As we have thoroughly explained that God does not forget. But when the Scripture says, “I [God] will forget your sin”, and the Psalmist here says, “Do not remember (that is, forget) the sins of my youth nor my transgressions”. Simply means, “Clear off every record of sins of my youth nor my transgressions”. And the Psalmist added, “… According to Your mercy remember me, O Lord, for your goodness’ sake”. Simply means, “According to Your promises take action, for your goodness’ sake, O Lord”. What action? We can find that in the next consecutive verses.

To teach us in the way, for all the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth (vv. 8-13). The reason for such teaching is so that we can inherit the earth (Ref. Matt. 5:5).

To reveal the secret of the Lord and show us His covenant (vv. 14-15). All that God wants from us is to call out to Him for mercy (Ps. 86:5 c.f. Isa. 55:7), and He will answer us. And in addition to Him answering us and showing us His tender mercies and loving-kindnesses, the Scripture says that He will show us great and mighty things, which we do not know (Jer. 33:3).

To bring us out of distress (vv. 16-17). In one of our devotionals, we saw how the mercy of God brings us rest.

To bring healing; that is another dimension of the mercy of God. Healing in the body (vs. 18), healing in the soul (vs. 20) and healing on the land (vs. 22 c.f. 2 Chron. 7:14).

The mercies of God provide for you all these benefits, and even much more. Why not embrace the Father’s love and let it fill your heart today. This is an opportunity you won’t want to miss.

 

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I accept you this day into my heart and I embrace your love. Help me to love you more than I love myself.

 

DECLARATION: THE BENEFITS THAT COME WITH THE MERCIES OF GOD ARE MINE THIS DAY AND FOREVER. AMEN AND AMEN!

2024: THE YEAR OF ESTABLISHMENT

Hosea‬ ‭2:23‬ ‭GNB I will establish my people in the land and make them prosper. I will show love to those who were called “Unloved”, and to those who were called “Not-my-People” I will say, “You are my people,” and they will answer, “You are our God.” The Lord is about to prosper us in all areas of our life, but He must first establish us in Him. It is until we're established in Him, our prosperity will have no root to last long. The Lord has said to us, “I will establish you.” Another area of God's establishment this year is in the area of His love. Ephesians 3:17 NIV So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love. The Lord has said to us, “I will uproot every plant that I have not planted. And get you rooted and established in My love.” (Matt. 15:13; Eph. 3:17). Falsehood will die as Truth will thrive. Every wind of doctrine will vanish, because the full knowledge of Christ will be established.  Strange practi

 PHRONESIS DEVOTIONAL 30 DAYS DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM September 22, 2023. Topic: TRUE RICHES Bible Reading: Matthew 6:19-34 Verse for Meditation: 1 Timothy 6:6 NLT Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. About sexual temptation, if you are struggling to break free, you must first be saved so that you can be given the Holy Spirit to empower you to live above sin. But breaking free and living constantly above sin; especially sexual sins, it take discipline and consistency. You don’t stay fit on the first day you go to the gym to work out; it takes consistent exercise and discipline to achieve that, so does exercising ourselves towards godliness (1Tim. 4:7). When you fall, you need to rise again to continue with the exercise. It was a constant practice that made that sexual habit called addiction. So you need to deliberately keep at it constantly till the appetite to sin dies. Spiritual attack is real, but what we call spiritual attack is actually a lack of knowle

I John 5:4-5 [4]For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

Our last year theme—our subject of discussion for last year was “WALKING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF CHRIST.” And we shared some lovely articles that correlate with that theme.
