Pt.6 Showing MERCY

Feb 4, 2024 • Pastor Dave Trimble

What is mercy? a number of definitions that could be used.

- But if we consider all that the Bible has to say about mercy, it boils down

to this definition you can write on your outline:

o Mercy is love in action.

- It's more than just an attitude – It’s more than just feeling sorry

for people –

- It's doing something.

- The Bible says God is a merciful God.

- Psalm 145:8

The LORD is kind and merciful, slow to get angry, full of unfailing love.

- Perhaps one reason we receive mercy when we ourselves are merciful

is because we are, in fact, becoming more like Him.

- As we adopt God’s character traits as our own, we more readily

understand and experience His blessings in our lives.
