Have mercy upon me

Have mercy upon me


"Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your loving-kindness." Psalm 51:1

The psalmist commence his prayer under a deep sense of his sin. Nothing but divine mercy can meet the case of the guilty. Transgressions committed under peculiar aggravation—need peculiar mercy, such as Divine loving-kindness alone can show.

God in His infinite grace has made a provision for cancelling sins of the deepest dye! He has sacrificed His only-begotten, His well-beloved Son, whose blood cleanses us from all sin. On the ground of the sufferings and death of Jesus on the cross—every penitent sinner is freely and fully forgiven forever!

" Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven , whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him!" Romans 4:7-8

"O'er sins, unnumbered as the sand,
  And like the mountains for their size,
  The seas of sovereign grace expand,
  The seas of sovereign grace arise!"
