MEMORISE:
Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
2 Corinthians 1:3
READ: Psalm 25:1-6
1 Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.
4 Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths.
5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
6 Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.
RCCG OPEN HEAVEN 29 DECEMBER 2025 TODAY MESSAGE
Today’s memory verse tells us that God is the Father of mercies. This means that He is not only merciful but the source of mercy. God is rich in mercy (Ephesians 2:4), and His mercy is renewed every day (Lamentations 3:22-23), implying that His mercy is unlimited. God’s mercy can transform every aspect of a believer’s life that needs transformation.
For instance, if a believer has health challenges or financial problems, God’s mercy can conveniently turn the believer’s situation around. His mercy is not one-sided; it is multidimensional and perfect. When the Father of mercies shows up in a fellow’s life, He can restore any opportunities that he or she might have lost and make everything new for such a fellow.
For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
Romans 9:15-16
You can see that even though God’s mercies are unlimited, they are not accessible to everyone because God Himself decides the people He shows His mercy.
Before God can dispense His unlimited mercies on a fellow, the fellow needs to acknowledge Him as his or her Father. As the Father of mercies, He only releases His unlimited mercies to His children.
While it is true that He causes the sun to shine on everyone, both good and bad (Matthew 5:45), there are certain levels of His mercies that He has reserved only for His children. If you are truly God’s child, your relationship with Him will give you access to His everlasting mercies.
Only God’s children have access to the full complement of His mercies; those who are not His children can only enjoy crumbs. God’s mercy is rich and multi-dimensional; however, a fellow must become His child to enjoy them. To unbelievers, He is a consuming fire, but to His children, He is compassionate and slow to anger (Psalm 145:8).
Beloved, if you are not yet born again, do not waste another minute outside the tender arms of the Father of mercies. He alone can give you a rich and fulfilling life on earth and guarantee your place in His kingdom for all eternity. If you are already His child, live in obedience to His will, and He will shower you with His abundant mercies
PRAYER POINT
Father, please help me to experience Your tender and manifold mercies in every area of my life.
