The Light Daily Devotional – The Vessels of Mercy
Focus: The Vessels of Mercy
WORD FOR TODAY
Every man used by God to be a vessel of His Glory is a vessel that has received His mercy. Whatsoever you are or can become; you never can merit it, because no man can become something in the hand of God because of his merit – Gbile Akanni
Scriptural Reference
“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 9:15 NKJV
There is nothing you are or achieve that is not by God’s mercy. Whenever a man forgets or fails to acknowledge the mercy of God in his life and attribute his achievements to his strength, effort or intellect; he becomes proud. God will never walk nor work with the proud and scornful. Hence, such will not be usable for His Glory.
Whatever you merited you will likely claim; therefore, God most of the time does not use men with merit but vessels of mercy because He will never share His Glory with any man. The likes of Gideon, Moses, Saul, Paul were vessels of mercy because they were used to proclaim God’s Glory when no man gave them the chance. God must have mercy on you if you must bear His Glory.
+ What are your credentials? Are you a vessel of His mercy?
Prayer: Lord! I am nothing without you, do not hesitate to show me mercy in the journey of destiny in Jesus name. Amen!
Emphasis: A man will not bear the Glory of God until His mercy becomes his credentials!
Have a Graceful Week Ahead!
