THEY SHALL OBTAIN MERCY
Matthew 5: 7
We get the true spirit of mercy and of mercy's assurance when we read a scripture such as Proverbs 19:17. The merciful will actually provide for the needy, but the thing that makes for true mercy is the confidence that their mercy is in the hands of their heavenly Father. How does the LORD pay the merciful again? Seeing that they have such an High Priest that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, those who have been made merciful are fully assured that they have been freely given liberty to approach the throne of God's grace where they shall obtain continual, never-ending, new mercies (Heb 4:15, 16; Ps 18:25.) This is the Origin of their mercy, the Supply of their mercy and the Strength of the merciful. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
