"Great are Thy tender mercies, O Lord; quicken me according to Thy judgments."
word for law - judgments; Great are Thy tender mercies, O Lord - how can we ever begin to understand the truth and depths of God's mercies? God is great and greatly to be praised; therefore, everything that proceeds from Him is great. God's grace and mercy is what our souls need so desperately. Praise be unto Him Who is willing to give it and bestow it. when Christians see the mercies of God their soul and hearts rejoice. But many Christians quickly forget the mercies of God and center in on the circumstances at hand. They lose faith and heart. What of the most beneficial things to do is constantly remind yourself of the mercies of God. What are they? Life, breath, ability to think and reason, freedoms, Bible, prayer, Holy Spirit, christ our Savior, churces, brothers and sisters in Christ, provisions, answered prayers, gifts given and bestowed by God and His people, and on an on it goes.
Remember the good hand of the Lord upon you and for you. We did nothing to earn these mercies, this is God's nature to show mercy. Don't think that it was because you was so very good and holy and righteou. No, it is the opposite; we are sinful, vile and offensive unto Him, yet He gives mercy in spite of our sinfulness. This is Who God is. Grace is unmerited (unearned for or not worked for) favor by God for the saving of a soul. Every soul is born in sin, practices sin and rejects God; But God Who is gracious givves the opporutnity, the Divine love for the saving of a lost soul. 'While we was yet in sin, Christ loved us'. Mercy is beyond grace; still having never earned it nor worked for it, God simply gives unmerited blessings upon a soul, a people, a nation or a church. Without God's mercy and grace we receive His wrath, judgment and His leaving us. No soul can afford nor survive without God's grace and mercy. It is impossible for such things to be. Satan is waiting for God to remove Himself so he can step in and seize the moment and the soul.
