A Scripture and a Prayer: “God’s Great Mercy”

“Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22-23)

Prayer:

Lord, thank you for Your wonderful mercy, compassion, and forgiveness towards me, even though I don’t deserve it, because I deserve death due to my sin, not everlasting life. But because of Your mercy I am not consumed, that is, I will not perish because of Your faithfulness and love. Therefore, help me keep my eyes upon You and my heart open to Your word, revealing Your perfect plan and purpose. Therefore, may I wake up every morning with a song of praise on my lips, my mind filled with Your word, and my heart fully in love with You. And this I ask in Jesus’s name. AMEN
