Grace – Mercy – Peace
By: Robert A Searles
To every Christian believer is given grace, mercy, and peace, from
God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
Grace: God pours out upon us his unmerited favor because he loves us.
He gives us all the good things from his storehouse of compassion and
love, even though we deserve none of it. “God so loved the world that
he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should
not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16.
“For by
grace are ye saved through faith: and that not of yourselves: it is a
gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast “Ephesians 2: 8,9.
God has promised to make his grace sufficient for us to meet our every
need. “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” - this is grace.
God is the giver, we are the receivers of all things freely to enjoy in
Christ- this is grace. We are joint heirs with Christ forever, though
by nature we are outlaws from the kingdom of God – this is grace. Oh,
my friend, when God wraps his arms around the prodigal, and puts a ring
on his finger, and a robe on his back, this is God's amazing grace.
In mercy God shields us and puts a hedge around us to protect us from
judgment, and wrath, and the results of our own folly. God keeps from
us by his mercy, the things that we deserve. He keeps from us the wages
which we have earned. “The wages of sin is death”. But by grace he
gives us the gift of life.
What person can ever really
fathom the depth of God's love and mercy? How many of us really know
how close we may at any given time have come to complete disaster except
for the mercy of God? Oh Lord we thank you for your mercy which has
kept from us our just deserts.
Oh the peace of God that passes
all human understanding when our hearts are right with God and in proper
fellowship with him-Peace with God and the peace of God that assures
our hearts that all is well with my soul, and there is nothing between
my soul and my Savior.
Thank you dear Lord this day for your grace, mercy, and peace.
