God's Wonderful Mercy part 1

August 13, 2020

 As sinful human beings, each of us are in dire need of mercy... and an abundance of it.  We can be truly thankful that the Lord not only has an abundance of mercy, but plenty to go around for each of us.  As we look at Psalm 107 on this day, we’re encouraged by the mercy of God and our Lord’s never ending lovingkindness.

So many of the Psalms are purely praise for our wonderful creator, and Psalm 106 is one of the best. There are so many reasons why we should be praising God every day and every minute. He is merciful, He is loving and He is righteous. Those are just three examples! Psalm 106 is a “Hallelujah Psalm”, and so, I urge to be ready to do some old fashioned praising today!

Psalm 105 is going to be the focal point of today’s message. It’s a Psalm believed to have been written by King David, and as an interesting side note - the first verses of this Psalm were sung as a hymn while the Ark of the Covenant was being transported to Jerusalem!

There are many themes that run throughout God’s word, and one of them is what we’ll consider again today - God’s providence. Whether it was God delivering His people from slavery in the Old testament or Jesus dying on the cross of calvary to deliver us from  our sins, God’s providence is something we cannot ignore.

Today - we continue to direct our thoughts toward the attributes of our Great and Awesome God. We find a few of them described for us in Psalm 104. This Psalm’s author expressed his amazement at God’s creation and His providence.

Our study through the Psalms takes us to Psalm 103. David wrote this Psalm as a tribute to God’s loving kindness and His wonderful mercy. When we think of God, do we sometimes forget how merciful He is?

Next on The Dwelling Place we return to our study of the Psalms, and in Psalm 102, we hear a call for justice, and see the abundance of God’s mercy, love and forgiveness poured out on His people. The Psalms provide many examples of the wonderful love God has for us, and it’s always a good thing to be reminded that He loves us so much,

Ever wonder why God allows our enemies to prosper, while we seem to always have some sort of struggle going on? God is in the business of refining us, and teaching us to trust in Him, and in the long run, we will be much better off for the struggles we go through. So if you feel a bit disheartened today, stay with us, as pastor Al will offer some encouragement to hang in there and realize that almighty God is in control!

Al attended Nazarene Bible College in Colorado Springs, graduating in 1977 with a degree in Biblical Studies. In 1991 Al and his family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and two years later he joined the staff of Calvary Chapel Albuquerque as an assistant pastor and co-worship leader. In the spring of 1997 the Lord called Al and his family back to Colorado Springs to pastor Calvary Worship Center. In 2006, Al earned his Master’s degree and in 2012 he earned his Doctorate degree in Ministry from Trinity Southwest University in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
