November 28, 2025 – God’s Mercy

God’s Mercy
November 28, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Psalm 119:124
Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

     What a brave soul it is, who looks into the face of a Holy God and says, “DEAL WITH ME.” Can you even think of walking into the courtroom of eternal life and looking at the Judge of all creation, who has the complete and true record of everything you have done, and saying, “DEAL WITH ME?” Not only does this Judge know the written record, but also every thought you have had, every word you have said, and every place you have gone. This Judge knows the deepest, darkest secrets about you.

     Then, to make matters worse, the Judge has bound Himself to handing out only one of two sentences to every person who comes into His courtroom. You will receive a sentence of either life or death. Life, if you are one of those who are found sinless. Death if you are part of the number who is not.

     Now you are standing before that Judge and saying, “DEAL WITH ME.” If God were to deal with us according to justice or give us what we deserve, we would all be bound for hell. However, because He deals with us according to His MERCY, we can find grace in the eyes of God through the applied sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ.

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

     God’s mercy is different from man’s mercy in that when God promises mercy, His promises are forever. When we accept His Son Jesus as our Saviour, we can count on everlasting kindness from the Creator of all things. The mercy of God is not explainable, but definitely attainable. “Thank you, God, for your mercy toward me.”

What can you do today that would make God’s role as Judge easier?

IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:

Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this Passage and today’s Devotion?

Do I find within this reading a CHALLENGE for my life?

What are one or two things I WILL DO today or this week to accept that CHALLENGE?
