THE VOICE OF MERXY FDAVOUR AND GRACE

THE VOICE OF MERCY FAVOUR AND GRACE
TEXT: Heb. 4:16, Ps.5:12, Rom 9:16
Mercy is the prerogative of God exercising His sovereignty. that is to say, Mercy is God breaking protocol and helping man even though he might not have, or should not have done it.
No matter what you do in life, where you are or who you are, you can never succeed in any thing without the grace and favour of God. I have seen people with outstanding academic certificates rotting away in the labour market. There are people with enough money but could not buy peace, a home or a child. Thus the preacher in says, "
Mercy is the reason why Esther a Jew could become the wife of a Persian king. No body remember to question her ancestry until the day they were in trouble. Yet the king, rather than getting furious, saved her race and condemned their enemy (Hamman) even though he was the king's right hand man.(Esther 2:15-17; Est 7)
God is the God of mercy. Mercy is his nature. The scriptures calls him the Father of mercies. ( 2cor 1:3 )
Whenever the mercy of the Lord is engaged, miracles happen immediately. In mark 1:40-42 When Jesus responded to the plea for mercy, he healed the leprous man instantly. When Jesus respondent to the plea for mercy in Matt 14:13 He gave the men a blank cheque He said "What will you have me do for you" He was ready to do anything because of mercy. If you will engage God's mercy today, your age long challenge will come to an abrupt end. Your life time question will receive an instant answer. What have you been struggling to achieve without result? Mercy will deliver your expectation into your hand without another ounce of struggle.
God ended 400 years of slavery one night because of his mercy which endureth forever. When you engage the mercy of God, the Lord who parted the red sea will use uncommon means to solve your uncommon challenges.  If you will engage His mercy today, The God that swept away Pharaoh and His host in the red sea will suddenly overthrow the stubborn pursuer of your life by in a most dramatic way. If you can engage God's mercy, the God that destroyed famous kings for Israel's sake will destroy the giants on your way to success in Jesus Name. (See Psalms 106)
The Lord says we should come to the throne of mercy and there obtain mercy and race to help in the  time of need. Mercy can only be received at the throne of Grace. Until you approach God through grace you may not be able to access His mercy. Grace comes by Jesus(John 1:14) Look to the finished work of Jesus and cry to God for mercy The Lord will arise on your behalf in the name of Jesus. 
PRAYER
Worship the God of mercy, grace and favour
Cry to God for mercy on any issue in your life
Pray that the mercy of God will rest on you and the country

GO IN THIS THY MIGHT

TEXT: Judges 6:14 And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee? MESSAGE: While Gideon was still sckeptic of ever being able to engage his oposition in battle God gave him the battle instruction. God already told him that His presence with Gideon will ensure his easy victory. But he added one very key instruction that ties up everything together. He said GO IN THIS THY MIGHT What might was the Lord talking about? This might God says is the presence of the Lord by which he will defeat the enemy as though they were just one man (Judges 6:16). The Lord was saying that he should advance against his opposition being strong in the Lord. We shall explore this phrase in a couple of days, but one thing that we must get today is that we must go in the strength of God alone. There is always a tendency to engage your challenges with other forms of strength. It is wrong to engage your challenge...

SEIZE THE MOMENT 2: HOW TO ESCAP JUDGEMENT

Image
TEXT: Luke 23:39-42   39  And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.  40  But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?  41  And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.  42  And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. MESSAGE The malefactor (as he is called in our text) is actually crucified and facing his last moments on earth, he seizes the moment. In one desperate cry he turned the course of his destiny. He is on the brink of everlasting torment in hell. But just before he falls into eternal doom, one sentence saves him. He calls to the Lord. He didn't have the time to weep over his sins and the consequence. He had an audacity of faith and dared to ask for life in paradise. Guess what? He g...

THE MANUAL FOR ETERNAL LIFE

TEXT: 2Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness MESSAGE Most people today, especially in this part of the world, buy appliances and never bother to go through the manual. The result is that they either soon damage the appliance or grossly under utilize it. Someone once bought a very expensive android tablet and all he could do with it was to make and receive calls. he ran everywhere to send e-mails. He spent hours at business centres trying to get his documents typed. Many other things he suffered because he never knew that his tablet could be used to solve all of those issues. In much the same way, when we receive eternal life into our spirits, it will be foolish of us to just assume that we know what to do with it. Just as the wisest thing anybody that bought an applicance would do is to check for the manufacturer's instruction in the manual, so also...
