OUR FATHER WHO SHOWS MERCY AND FREELY PARDONS

Isaiah chapter 55 verse 7 says this;

Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts. Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them, and to our God, for he will freely pardon.

This verse sets the templates by which people can obtain mercy from the Lord and be freely pardoned by God.

First, the wicked need to abandon their ways, behaviours and actions.

The unrighteous need to abandon their thoughts which are the expressions of the flesh in the mind.

Having done this,  we can turn towards the Lord and He will respond in mercy and grace towards those who repent from sin and humble themselves before him.

Amen.

7
