Mercy is kindness bestowed as forgiveness by God. It is undeserved by the recipient and freely given by the giver.
Deut. 4:31 "For the LORD thy God is a merciful God"
Neh. 9:31 "Nevertheless, for thy great mercies' sake thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them, for thou art a gracious and merciful God."
Dan. 9:9 "To the LORD our God belong mercies and forgiveness, though we have rebelled against him."
Lk. 6:36 "Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful."
Ps. 25:6 Remember O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindness; for they have been from old."
Lk. 1:50 "And His mercy is on them who fear him from generation to generation"
Eph. 2:4 "God who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)."
God is rich in mercy. It is boundless in Him. Even before creation, when He had no cause to be merciful within the Godhead, as there was no sin between the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, God chose to express mercy towards creation in the everlasting covenant forged before anything was created. He purposed to be merciful to sinful humans to forgive their sins due to the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus, "slain before the creation of the world."
His mercies do not fail. They are sure for those who believe in the Son. We can be confident in the forgiveness brought to us in Christ because God has determined to be merciful on those He chooses to me merciful (those who are saved by His grace).
We can know that when we sin God is faithful and just to forgive us on account of the sacrifice of Jesus. When we bring to God our sin seeking forgiveness and cleansing, we can know that we have received mercy from Him. He is good to us. We are His children by adoption and heirs with Christ to all the blessings given Him for His perfect life.
Because of this mercy, we are to be merciful to others.
He is MERCIFUL
