Surely Goodness and Mercy
There’s a phrase in Psalm 23 that is probably familiar to you, but perhaps, like me, you have never taken time to really apply it to your life.
Breaking up the Brazen Serpent
Have you ever wondered why God didn’t preserve more of the original artifacts of Bible history? The account of the brazen serpent gives us a hint—and an important warning.
Justice, Mercy, and Omniscience
Deuteronomy may not be the first book that comes to mind when you think of the attributes of God, but God’s Word is full of glimpses of His character. Deuteronomy 4 displays several attributes of God in a striking way.
God Knows and Cares
Whenever I feel overwhelmed or anxious, Psalm 103 helps me. But one set of truths from this comforting psalm recently came alive to me like never before.
The Merciful Stranger
Jesus told of an unlikely man who showed mercy on a wounded man. What can that story from so long ago teach us about showing mercy today?
The Merciful
Jesus said that the merciful are blessed, or happy, because they shall obtain mercy. So what does mercy look like?
Satisfied with God’s Mercy
Psalm 90 has often been called “the Revival Psalm”. It begins with a display of God’s goodness and majesty, contrasted with our own fleeting lifetimes. It speaks of God knowing our iniquities and our secret sins, and then goes on to stress the importance of keeping the brevity of life before us as a motivation to apply our hearts to wisdom.
But then, the Psalmist makes a plea that I find quite striking.
Daily Mercies
God’s mercy is not limited to salvation. He has sprinkled His mercy throughout each day.
