He delighteth in mercy. - Micah 7:18

The proper object of mercy is misery; sin has rendered us miserable, and God has revealed Himself as merciful. He delighteth in mercy; it is a pleasure to Him to have mercy upon us; He delights to pardon our sins, relieve our necessities, and save our souls.

His own glory being secured, He delights to bless His people. He is styled, THE FATHER OF MERCIES; and as a father takes pleasure in his children, so does our God in showing mercy.

He always delights in mercy, therefore He does so this morning; go, then, and mourn over thy sins, which have grieved Him and rendered you miserable; go, and plead for mercy at His throne, nor doubt for one moment His pity, His kindness, or His grace.

Have you obtained mercy? Be zealous to glorify God in the day of visitation; be honest, and ascribe all to mercy which is her due; and be active to spread the good news abroad, assuring poor, miserable sinners, that GOD DELIGHTETH IN MERCY.

With this, check thy fears, repel thy temptations, and comfort thy heart. Believe it as an undoubted truth, plead it as a powerful argument with God, and daily rejoice in it. It is sweet to be an infinite debtor to mercy.

‘Tis mercy in Jesus exempts me from hell; Its glories I’ll sing, and its wonders I’ll tell; ’Twas Jesus, my Friend, when He hung on the tree, Who open’d the channel of mercy for me.
