In this blog post, I will be discussing about the mercy of God. Mercy of God is what every believer will always pray for God to have. And anything that will separate us from the mercy of God, it will lead to disaster. Though God show mercy to the one He wish to show mercy to, it does not depend on that person request only. No one can work to earn God’s mercy, but we can do things that will please Him so that we can obtain mercy from Him.

confesses and forsake them shall have mercy.” If that is so, we
don’t want to prosper? Then why are we doing things that drive away God’s mercy
from us? Prayer, Lord Jesus, forgive all my sins, I don’t want to miss your
mercies and prosperity, purge away anything that will drive away Your mercy
from me, Amen.

we can overcome sins. Let pray with determination, because He judges the heart
