Mercy and Grace at the right time!
“We may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” (Heb. 4:16b)
Grace and Mercy to you from God!
Grace means to get something that you do not deserve; unmerited favor.
Mercy means you do not get a punishment that you deserve instead you receive; compassion and forbearance.
God is abundant in grace and mercy!
“Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)
His greatest act of grace is the gift of salvation available for all people through faith in Jesus
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.” (Eph.:8-9)
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by His grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.” (Rom. 3:23)
When the gift of salvation is accepted, eternal life is promised to the recipient
“But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ— by grace you have been saved.” (Eph. 2:4)
