The Mercy of God

THE MERCY OF GOD
Pablo Horna
TEXT: Matthew 20:29-34
THESIS: To encourage us to consider the mercy of God and follow His Son.
INTRODUCTION:
1. The mercy of God in one of the key to understand Gods dealing
with humankind.
2. Mercy described a quality and attribute of God.
3. Mercy denotes the compassion, the goodness, the sympathy and
love of God.
4. When we consider this passage, we notice a condition, a need and a
remedy.
DISCUSSION:
I. THE CONDITION.
A. Their condition was blindness (v.30).
B. Such condition of characteristic of them, made them less than
others.
C. There were two persons, two souls, they were important to
Christ.
D. All of us are important to Christ
II. THE NEED.
A. Their need was to be able to see.
B. They cried out (screamed): Have mercy on us O Lord, thou Son
of David.
C. They were asking for mercy to the one that is all mercy.
D. People tried to hinder them in their attemption to get Jesus
attention, but they cried out more (v. 31): Have mercy on
us O Lord, thou Son of David.
E. Once they had Jesus attention, they expressed their need: That
our eyes may be opened.
III. THE REMEDY.
A. So Jesus had compassion on them (v. 34).
B. This reminds me one of the most known verses in the Bible, in
which God shows us His love and mercy for us: For God so
loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life (John 3:16).
C. and immediately their eyes received sight: Jesus was the
remedy for them; He restored their eyes, they received the
sight.
D. The Father had compassioned on us by sending His Son.
E. Christ had compassioned on us by dying on that cross (past

time).
F. Our Father and Our Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us (present
time).
G. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which
according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again
unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the
dead (1st Peter 1:3).
H. Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but
according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of
regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost (Titus 3:5).
I. Our Father saw our condition, our great need of salvation, and
provided us a lively hope through His son, He gave us a
remedy.
J. God is all mercy, that means that there is mercy for all the
souls.
K. But it requires certain thing: to look for it as these two blind men
did.
L. Once these two blind men look for Jesus and received the
remedy, the last part of the verse says: and they followed
Him.
CONCLUSION:
1. Dear friend, if you have not obeyed the Gospel yet, tonight you have the opportunity. What
you need to do to be saved is what the Bible says, not what the men says. What you
need to do to be saved today is the same that the first Christians did to be saved:
a. To hear the word of God: Romans 10:17.
b. To have faith, to believe: Hebrews 11:6.
c. To repent of past sins: Luke 3:13
d. To confess Christ: Romans 10:9.
e. To be baptized (immersed in water) for the remissions of sins: Acts 2:38.
2. By doing these five steps: The Lord, will add you to His church (Acts 2:47).
3. By doing these five steps: you will be in a saved condition (Acts 2:47).
4. Do not go back home with uncertainty in your life, do not sleep tonight without have
been reconciled with God. He is full of mercy but also justice and one day he will
judge the world. Please come forward.
5. Dear Christian, we serve a God of all mercy.
6. Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression
of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger forever, because he
delighteth in mercy (Micah 7:18).
7. For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them
that call upon thee (Psalm 86:5).
8. Dear friend and Dear Christian, Jesus had compassion/mercy on two blind and
restore their sight, their respond was to go after Him, to follow Him. would you
follow Jesus? please come forward, as together we stand and sing.
