Lord, have mercy on me, the sinner.

[shortlady]

Lord, have mercy on me, the sinner.

"This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, `Know the Lord,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more."

Hebrews 8:10-12 NIV

Seek the LORD while He may be found,
Call upon Him while He is near.
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 55:6,7 NKJV

He has not dealt with us according to our sins,

For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
So great is His loving kindness toward those who fear Him.

As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

Psalm 103:10-12 NASB

Great devotional sister thank you. Isaiah 55:6,7 sums it up nicely. I need mercy every day for my sins and my daily hope is GOD's grace in Jesus Christ. His Word resets my motives, one day at a time.

If only we all took time to truly mediate on His Word and acknowledge 'quiet time' with GOD to hear His voice, to mature in our walk with Him and gain further wisdom. What better people we'd be and a drastic change we can create with warrior-like prayers and GOD's power!
