Psalm 31:7 (NKJV) 7 I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy, For You have considered my trouble; You have known my soul in adversities,
Most of us never fully comprehend the effects of God’s mercy over our lives.
Without His mercy, we would all be in serious trouble. Some of us may very well no longer be alive had it not been for His mercy over our lives. I’m sure this is the case in my own life, as I look back at some of the stupid things I did early on in my years here on earth.
Just as important, though, His mercy impacts our lives every single day, as we face various troubles and trials (adversities).
Some of these trials can hit us pretty hard, leaving us reeling and wondering what just happened.
In fact, some of these trials can cause us to lose our way in our walk with God if we’re not careful to stay focused and close to Him.
The pressures of life will wear us down if we let them. So, it’s important that we allow the mercy of God to act as a shield to guard us from the onslaught of the enemy, preventing us from faltering in our faith.
It’s up to us to allow Him to protect us.
While that may sound crazy to some, we need to understand that we sometimes make choices that put us in harm’s way and tie the hands of God in His efforts to help and protect us.
So, let us move carefully, discern sharply and make our choices wisely.
And may we let God’s mercy continue to protect our soul in adversities.
