Topic: God’s Mercy in Our Weakness
Text: Romans 7: 14 - 25
Word From: Mary Ola
I bless God and also thank the Head Pastor for giving me the opportunity to bring the Word of God to you.
We all, one way or the other have a weakness. We have that sin, pain, hurt, burden that we battle with every single day of our lives.
We have a sin that so much ways us down.
Apostle Paul say in Romans 7:15 - I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate.
Just like Apostle Paul we are all fighting a war against the flesh. Sometimes we win, sometimes, we lose.
Tonight, I'm presenting to you God's mercy. God's mercy comes through for us in our weakness 2 Corinthians 12:9-11.
Jesus Christ coming to the earth was because of our weakness. Christ came, felt our pain, our struggles, sin, carried them and nailed it on the cross. That is why He is able to intercede on our behalf. Jesus Christ, like a big brother keep telling God - I've been there I know how it feels, bear with them, give them another chance, another opportunity. So the next time your weakness seems to be overwhelming you, look to the cross, look to Jesus who is seated at the mercy sit and lay it all at His feet. Hebrews 4:16 says, So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.
So, note that the weakness you are battling with, God has already provided a way out.
Brethren, I don't know what weakness is weighing up on you. I can't even guess it but know this, God knows. He knows and yet won't make mockery of it. Tell your weakness to man and they might laugh at you or gossip about it to five, ten or more people. But when you bring them to the Mediator (Christ), at the Mercy Seat, He will turn that weakness into strength.
I want you to take a few minutes to bring that weakness, that burden at His feet right now. Talk to Him about and believe Him. Amen!
God bless you All and have a wonderful evening.
