Day 1: God is compassionate, merciful, and gracious
In a world that’s quick to gossip and judge people, it’s easy to confuse the loudness of cancel culture with the gracious voice of God.
Our God is compassionate, merciful, and gracious—he sits with us in our suffering, he gives unlimited second chances to the humble, and he even goes as far as to comfort us and free us from our shame. Through Jesus, we experience favor even in the times that we’ve done nothing to deserve it—that’s why it’s called the gift of grace.
Reflection:
- Are there areas in your life where you need to witness and experience God’s compassion, mercy, and grace?
- What would it look like if we could bring the same compassion, mercy, and grace that we’ve received to the world of broken and hurting people around us?
About this Plan
Every January at Favor Church, we pray and fast together for five days. This year, we’re starting off with bearing witness to who God is so we can be effective witnesses of his character to others. Follow along each day by reading through the plan and the provided verses, and reflect on the guide questions for deeper revelations!
