Have Mercy

"Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death?" (Rom 7:24 NAS95)

 

The holiness of God longs for his children to be holy. When we call on that great name of Jesus he starts working a good work in us to bring us to glory. This work in us fights the against the flesh. The flesh can not please God.

 

Knowing the flesh is unable to honor God causes the conflict that has saints trying to please God and not giving in to the sinful man. When this becomes so overwhelming when we try to do this on our own, that is when we cry for help. The cry is who will set me free from this body of death?

 

Feeling this desperate need for God's mercy puts you in the place God wants you to be. When you know you need God and God alone then you are open to receive his grace and mercy that saves you from death. Turn your life over to God and see Jesus as the only one who can set you free from the slave of sin and the death it brings.
