Podcasts about merciful

Just the sound of the word “mercy” is a blessing to one receiving it and one giving it (because they need mercy). Let’s consider this great word.

What we'll see today is more evidence of the Holy Spirit's presence, and more evidence of man's unwillingness to acknowledge His presence. Peter called the people to account for this back then, and his words will remind us today, that acknowledgment begets faith, and faith begets worship and that's why we're here... to glorify and worship the Lord Jesus Christ. 

In this homily The Rev. Dr. James E. Taylor, Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, discusses the readings for the day and how they show God's mercy toward His children even when we are undeserving. He also advises as to the things we should do as children of God.Send comments to: musingsonfaith@gmail.com.

Have you ever experienced something and later realized you'd been set up? That's exactly what's about to happen to Peter and John. They're on their way to the temple to pray and they come across a lame man begging for money. What happens at the Beautiful Gate served to give the people a vivid example of the presence and the power of The Holy Spirit.

In week 2 of our series, Church of the Living God, we dig into 1Timothy 1:12-17 to see three signs of God's mercy and how we canrespond to them to be the Merciful Church we're called to be.Paul was the best example of God's mercy. He literally killed Christians. In fact, he wasn't just the trigger man; he was the one planning and funding the killings! In light of what our nation is going through after the senseless assassination of Charlie Kirk, it is ok to be motivated by anger, but we are to move in mercy.Website:www.experienceredemption.comFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/experienceredemptionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/experienceredemption

The judgment on Rosh Hashanah is comprehensive: every single human has his or her moment of judgment before God. Even the dead are judged again each year. The judgment covers not only our behavior with respect to fulfilling our obligations to God, it also covers interpersonal matters. If we are meritorious, we will be forgiven for all our sins on Yom Kippur, but that atones only sins down between man and God. For interpersonal sins, we are not forgiven until we appease our friend and elicit their forgiveness. But these two domains are not entirely separate. In this short and sweet podcast sourced from the writings of my grandfather of blessed memory, we learn how important our interpersonal behavior is vis-a-vis our status before God. Now is the time to prepare.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Genesis 19:12-29

The Bible is full of stories, outcome testimonies and promises that are for all circumstances in life, and for extreme cases. We believe and rely on them and have expectation.The believer that is made alive in the Lord is always ready to help and pray. Giving is always joy and it makes us feel full of the power of God's love to perform it.However, I want to mark out how there are certain individuals that we come across that are very desperate, in dire straits, facing impossible situations. We spring into action because we love them and want them delivered. But there is a problem. Many times there is frustration because as much intense prayer, and working with them, teaching, sharing the word, they are never better. There is never any change.I have experienced this many times in my life. We are never to be weary in well-doing, but there are things God has to teach us, and show us. Therefore, we are to go through these things ultimately to trust God and Him alone completely for them. This is not a compensatory saying but one of wisdom. We must learn that there is no one more merciful than Jesus Christ Himself. We have to learn to bow and give them up to the Lord with as much joy we had when we first started to believe for them."A whole lot of what we call 'struggling' is simply delayed obedience." - Elisabeth Elliot

“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy." Matthew 5:7Join us to learn what Jesus says about mercy and the Good Life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Monday 1st of September 2025 Systematic and Expository Bible Study on the book of St. James by Pastor W.F Kumuyi at the Deeper Life Bible Church Gbagada, Lagos. Nigeriahttps://dclm.org/sermons/bible-studies/2025-bible-study/preserving-merciful,-peaceful-love-while-earnestly-contending-for-the-faith/

What comes to mind when you think about God? The Bible tells us that God is merciful, but what does that actually mean? What do we do when we don't feel God's mercy? Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson

Psalm 51 shows us that through Christ, our Commander of mercy and unfailing love, we are forgiven, restored, and given strength to fight with a clean heart.

Alan teaches on the Beatitudes from Yeshua's Sermon on the Mount, in Matthew 5:3-10.Blessed are the poor in spirit,for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.Blessed are those who mourn,for they will be comforted.Blessed are the meek,for they will inherit the Earth.Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,for they will be satisfied.Blessed are the merciful,for they will be shown mercy.Blessed are the pure in heart,for they will see God.Blessed are the peacemakers,for they will be called the Sons of God.Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/NRyGS0lm9vwSend us a text

This is message 29 in The Power of God's Name Exodus 34:1-7 God's glory is revealed not through dazzling displays but through the proclamation of His name. To proclaim His name is to declare His character, revealing His mercy, grace, patience, goodness, truth, and justice. This is not simply a title but the unveiling of who God truly is. To know His name is to know His nature, and to proclaim His name is to make Him known in truth, calling all people to worship and trust the One who is holy, merciful, and faithful.

In Blessed Part 3: Merciful & Pure, we explore Jesus' words in Matthew 5:7-8 and what it truly means to live with mercy and purity of heart. Mercy is forgiveness, compassion in action, and love that flows from God's own mercy toward us. When our hearts are purified by Him, we not only reflect His character but also see God more clearly in our lives.

The Israelites in the time of Jesus lived under the heavy hand of Roman rule. That context shapes so much of what we read in the gospels, influencing the meaning of scripture and the dynamics we see in the stories.This Sunday we'll read Matthew 9:9-17, about Jesus calling Matthew to be His disciple. At first glance, “Matthew the tax collector” may not strike us as anything unusual, perhaps just a profession that isn't well-liked. But for a first-century audience, those words would have been shocking.Tax collectors were not simply disliked. They were despised. They worked with Rome to oppress their own people, betraying their families, neighbors, and community. By overcharging and exploiting others, they grew wealthy while their fellow Israelites suffered. To hear that Jesus would not only speak to a tax collector, but call him to follow, was nothing short of scandalous.That is where the power of this passage lies. The betrayal and brokenness that Matthew represented highlights the radical nature of God's kingdom: Jesus steps toward the outcast, the despised, and even the betrayer, offering grace and transformation.Join us this Sunday as we study Matthew together, and discover how Jesus' call to Matthew reveals the shocking depth of God's mercy and how it continues to change our own lives today.Click here for a pdf of the teaching slideshow.

WAR ENDINGS NEITHER SWIFT NOR MERCIFUL:  3/8  Road to Surrender: Three Men and the Countdown to the End of World War II by  Evan Thomas  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Road-Surrender-Three-Countdown-World/dp/0399589252 1942 UKRAINE At 9:20 a.m. on the morning of May 30, General Groves receives a message to report to the office of the secretary of war “at once.” Stimson is waiting for him. He wants to know: has Groves selected the targets yet? So begins this suspenseful, impeccably researched history that draws on new access to diaries to tell the story of three men who were intimately involved with America's decision to drop the atomic bomb—and Japan's decision to surrender. They are Henry Stimson, the American Secretary of War, who had overall responsibility for decisions about the atom bomb; Gen. Carl “Tooey” Spaatz, head of strategic bombing in the Pacific, who supervised the planes that dropped the bombs; and Japanese Foreign Minister Shigenori Togo, the only one in Emperor Hirohito's Supreme War Council who believed even before the bombs were dropped that Japan should surrender. Henry Stimson had served in the administrations of five presidents, but as the U.S. nuclear program progressed, he found himself tasked with the unimaginable decision of determining whether to deploy the bomb. The new president, Harry S. Truman, thus far a peripheral figure in the momentous decision, accepted Stimson's recommendation to drop the bomb. Army Air Force Commander Gen. Spaatz ordered the planes to take off. Like Stimson, Spaatz agonized over the command even as he recognized it would end the war. After the bombs were dropped, Foreign Minister Togo was finally able to convince the emperor to surrender. To bring these critical events to vivid life, bestselling author Evan Thomas draws on the diaries of Stimson, Togo and Spaatz, contemplating the immense weight of their historic decision. In Road to Surrender, an immersive, surprising, moving account, Thomas lays out the behind-the-scenes thoughts, feelings, motivations, and decision-making of three people who changed history.

Join us this summer as we dive into the Psalms. Each week, we'll explore a different Psalm to see how its timeless truths speak into our present lives. From joy and gratitude to sorrow and struggle, the Psalms remind us that God is with in every season of life. So, bring your whole heart this summer—let's learn to pray, praise, and trust like never before. This week, Pastor Karla returns to the pulpit with a timely message reminding us about our place/ranking in the history of humanity. She calls us to a life of faithfulness in passing down the story of God, rather than perfection. And Despite our constant unfaithfulness God suffers with us. Passage: Psalm 103:8-18 We have three worship opportunities for you to experience: 9:00 a.m. - Sanctuary Service 9:30 a.m. - Online Service 10:30 a.m. - Chapel Service  Please consider joining us for one of these services.  To view past worship services along with other digital content, go to our Youtube Channel @PointLomaChurchOnline.  To get involved in what God is doing within our community, please visit our website at www.pointlomachurch.org.
