Proverbs 11:17 KJV — The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
Reflection on God’s Word for Today - 17 Aug 2024
In the kingdom of Jehovah mercy is a huge trump card. Indeed one can boldly declare that, but for the mercy of God the whole of humanity as we know it would have been wiped out because of their persistent rebellion against the Sovereign God who created the entire universe and made humans in His own image and after His likeness. Being a carrier of the divine DNA you have the seed of mercy in you and you can choose to nurture it by using it or you can neglect it and let it wither and die. The choice is yours. But I want you to know that every choice comes with its consequences and you alone are responsible for whatever consequences you get. So, I urge you to choose wisely and your soul shall prosper thereby.
Pray: Everlasting Father, help me to nurture the seed of mercy in me and to be merciful to others as You are to me. #Mok
