“EXTENDED MERCY ONTO ME” – Part I

Ezra 7: 28

"And hath extended mercy unto me before the king, and his counselors, and before all the king's mighty princes. And I was strengthened as the hand of the Lord my God was upon me, and I gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me"

This is our month of Exceeding Grace in Amazing Grace Sanctuary and we are celebrating our season of Great Grace as we do every year. This year, it is from Thursday August 28-31 2014.

It was after 80 years that God used Zerubbabel to rebuild and restore the ruined Temples of Israel, still the people were not rebuilt and restored because many Kings were not leading the people to worship God until the reign of King Artaxerxes.

The time of King Artaxerxes coincided with the time that Prophet Ezra was raised. Let us refer to Ezra 7: 12 which says “Artaxerxes, king of kings, unto Ezra the priest, a scribe of the law of the God of heaven, perfect peace and at such a time.”

The timing, the kind of king on the throne, and the people, etc were all perfect for the restoration and rebuilding of the people. Why? Ezra was chosen among the numerous prophets, because his heart had been rightly prepared to seek God in earnest and do God’s will without deviation and God granted him EXTENDED MERCY before every one that was important and influential in the land. Extended mercy is like extended warranty/guaranty/assurance. Not as the world would offer, but by the extraordinary hands of God that break every barrier and protocol. Praise God!

Prayer points for the day
