Potent Attributes

Potent Attributes 

Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your steadfast love. According to Your abundant mercy, blot out my transgressions. Psalm 51:1

When King David was in crisis mode following his lapse in judgment and moral failure, he took firm hold of the attributes of God in prayer—His steadfast love and abundant mercy.

Which one of God’s innumerable attributes does your soul cling to today?  His truth, patience, long-suffering, grace, humility, tenderness, compassion, veracity, immutability, love, care, grace, glory, power, wealth, and wisdom all stand before you. When you enter Christ-encountering prayer today, reach for God’s potent attributes and declare them loudly.

Father God, I declare today Your steadfast love and abundant mercy. I rest in Your character.
