KNOW TO BE PLEADING FOR THE MERCY OF GOD

It is a great privilege of God, His mercy but not a right for one to be seeing the light of a new day or the new month.
The breath of life is the doing of God, the mercy of God, not because of the right of one.
Job 12:10 points out, “In whose hand is the life of every living thing, And the breath of all mankind?”
Job 33:4 testifies, “The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.”
Without a doubt, it is the mercy of God to see day after day, week after week, month after month, or year after year.
One alive should resolve to praise God for His mercy, the privilege of the breath of life.
Psalm 150:6 speaks to all, “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!”
It is an abuse of the privilege of God to be alive and be reduced to not thanking God, praising God for the mercy of having a life.
The challenge of life reduces one not to be praising God for His mercy at every breath of life.
All should know that challenges are bound to cease where it exists, and the word of God encourages, “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all.” (Psalm 34:19)
With the mercy of God, the affliction of life, the challenge that persists can be a glimpse that is not permanent.
It is worthy to consistently acknowledges God for His mercy.
Praise and thank God at every moment for mercy to be alive.
It is not beyond God for His intervention in times of challenge in life.
Job 14:7 records the encouragement to know that there is hope for one not to abuse the privileged of the mercy of God to be alive.“For there is hope for a tree If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease.”
The mercy of God is enough to reverse any irreversible because God is the unchanging changer, and always good not to ignore when and where He desires to intervene over any challenge.
In this season of life, know to call on the mercy of God.
The mercy of God is not cheap, not of no one to command God for His mercy.
Assuming instead of asking for the mercy of God is an error.
Pleading, asking for the mercy of God in all areas of life, is evidence of not assuming in the place of asking, seeking, and knocking for the mercy of God.
With faith, ask and not assume but plead before God for His mercy in all endeavors.
At this moment in time, all should be pleading before God at the breath of life.
What does one know and not be pleading for the mercy of God?
All should learn and know as documented in the pages of the Bible.
For example, the psalmist knows better to be pleading for the mercy of God, “Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.” (Psalm 123:3)
Learn in the word of God, know to be asking for the mercy of God, not acting like one that is qualified for the mercy of God.
Romans 9:15 record the word of God, “For He says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.”
Romans 2:11 makes us know, “For there is no partiality with God.”
However, the mercy of God is attainable when one asks or pleads for His mercy. 
Job is one that God declares as none like him on the earth; a blameless and upright man who fears God and shuns evil.
Job recognizes to plead, not assume for the mercy of God as Job 9:15 states, “For though I were righteous, I could not answer Him; I would beg mercy of my Judge” (Job 9:15). 
The testimony of God about Job did not excuse Job from receiving the mercy of God without pleading for the mercy of God. 
Like Job, Psalmist pleads for the mercy of God, “Have mercy on me, O LORD! Consider my trouble from those who hate me, You who lift me from the gates of death.” (Psalm 9:13). 
All should know to plead for the mercy of God to receive mercy from God.
Looking up to Him is trusting in Him.
Lift voices in crying to Him for His mercy. 
Luke 17:13 records, “And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” 
God is merciful and never runs out of mercy.
Plead for the mercy of God!
Ask that from this hour, the mercy of God shall begin to answer for you more than ever in the life He has given you.
Ask that the mercy of God that brought you this far shall not expire all the days He has given to your loved ones.
