Today's Bible Promise - "I desire mercy and not sacrifice" Matthew 12:7

But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless. Matthew 12:7 NKJV

Prayer
Jesus does not condemn me. I praise You Lord Jesus for showing me mercy when my works or performance do not live up to Your expectations. Please deliver me from Pharisaical legalism that condemns others and crushes the spirit of people. Teach me to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly before my heavenly Father. Empower me with Your Holy Spirit and grant me an opportunity today to show mercy to a family member, co-worker or friend who needs to be redeemed, not condemned. In Your precious name I pray
