GOD truly is good and his mercy endureth forever. He made us and is working consistently to save man. If we listen to GOD and walk humbly with him their is numerous benefits that one can reap.
1 Peter 5: 5 - 7
5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
Today everyone wants to be the boss no one wants to submit themselves. We want to rule over people but don't want to be ruled over. Let go of pride for it is the opposite of humility.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
The LORD does in fact care for his creation and while you are living, no matter what you have done he will forgive you and heal you. If you humble yourself under his mighty hand.
Micah 6: 8
8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
Do justly, just do what is right and walk with GOD. That's all GOD wants you to do. When GOD says to do something, just do it even if you fail, GOD's mercies are renewed everyday. He doesn't change, he never has changed. GOD has been singing the same song from the time that it was and he is here and always will be, forever.
2 Chronicles 6: 13 - 14, 22- 25, 32 - 33
13 For Solomon had made a brasen scaffold of five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court: and upon it he stood, and kneeled down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven.
14 And said, O Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest covenant, and shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walk before thee with all their hearts:
22 If a man sin against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to make him swear, and the oath come before thine altar in this house;
23 Then hear thou from heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, by requiting the wicked, by recompensing his way upon his own head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him according to his righteousness.
24 And if thy people Israel be put to the worse before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee; and shall return and confess thy name, and pray and make supplication before thee in this house;
25 Then hear thou from the heavens, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest to them and to their fathers.
32 Moreover concerning the stranger, which is not of thy people Israel, but is come from a far country for thy great name's sake, and thy mighty hand, and thy stretched out arm; if they come and pray in this house;
33 Then hear thou from the heavens, even from thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for; that all people of the earth may know thy name, and fear thee, as doth thy people Israel, and may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.
No one is EVER left out when it comes to GOD. He created ALL people for his glory. Israel may have a specific job but that don't make them any greater than the next man. Whoever submits themselves before GOD and walk humbly in his sight will reap mercy.
2 Chronicles 7: 12, 14
12 And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Philippians 2: 5 - 8
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Think like Christ did, we think too much about what we want. I want my spouse to be like this, I want that car, I want that job. Instead of praying and asking GOD for something, ask GOD what can I do for you. Just humble yourself before GOD because there is indeed great benefits to be reaped.
