Leviticus 1:1-17; Psalms 96:1-98:9; Acts 24:24-25:12
His mercy is on those who fear Him from generation to generation. Luke 1:50 NKJV
How rich is the heritage of those that fear His name (Ps. 61:5), including all believers! Despite Mary’s low estate (Luke 1:48), she could say, “He that is mighty hath done to me great things” (v. 49). That same mercy awaits every generation that reveres her Saviour. Despite our “low estate”, He that is mighty has done great things for us! Our God “who is rich in mercy,…has made us alive together with Christ” (Eph. 2:4-5). The beloved psalmist could sing of His mercy inthe morning (Ps. 59:16) because His compassions fail not (Lam. 3:22). That same compassionate heart greets us daily. —David W. Oliver
Morning by morning, new mercies I see,
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided,
Great is Thy faithfulness Lord unto me. —Thomas O. Chisholm
