Abundant Mercy!
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who need abundant mercy. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Psalm 51 was written by David after he had an affair with Bathsheba, ordered her husband, Uriah the Hittite, murdered, and was confronted by Nathan the prophet. David was convicted by his sin.
Psalm 51:1-3 (ESV) gives us a glimpse into the mind of a man pleading for mercy from Holy God;
“Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your steadfast love;
according to your abundant mercy
blot out my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
and cleanse me from my sin!
For I know my transgressions,
and my sin is ever before me.”
Ever feel the need for mercy? Draw near to God, confess the sin, and experience his abundant mercy.
