"Brief Instruction: when you come across a verse move the cursor over it and you may read the verse"
It really clear to me why Jesus used these beatitudes in his message introducing his Kingdom principles. [1.] Because it is not in the heart of man to be merciful. [2.] To show the need for change in our hearts. We know that he was merciful because he has saved us by he mercy and grace. Therefore he does not want us to be unmerciful to anyone. It is so hard to change and yet it is our responsibility. If you lack mercy in your life then it is obvious that you are not showing mercy. The test says if we are merciful we shall obtain mercy. That my friends is a fact. This is the nature of God. Nehemiah:9:31 If you have an concordance look up the word merciful and see what the bible says about it. Obtaining it is a promise if we do the first part of the verse. How and when should we show mercy? I would say by our good works before people and to people. Go out of your way today when you read this little devotion and show some kindness which is mercy and help somebody to do. One song writer said in his lyrics "if I can help somebody along the way, then my living will not be in vain. That should be our prayer to the LORD today. Help us oh Lord to be a Christian that you would have me to be Amen
