S - Scripture
Psalm 86 v. 15 But thou, O Lord, art a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger
and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
O - Observation
I love this verse. There are so many words and phrases to dwell on. But today,
I love the three words, "Slow to Anger." Contrary to what the world's
perception is of God, you know - smiting, smoting, commendation, the reality is
- since God is abounding in steadfast love, he is Slow to ANGER. Lamentations 3
v. 22b- 23, His mercies never come to an end, they are new EVERY MORNING; Great
is thy faithfulness." God will forgive you. God will pursue you every day,
even after a day of Great sinning. Why? 2 Peter 3 v. 9b, "The Lord
is not slow about his promise as some count slowness but is forbearing towards
you, not wishing THAT ANY SHOULD PERISH, but that all should reach
repentance."
A - Application
Do I appreciate, am I thankful for God's - Slow to Anger?
P - Prayer
Jesus, Thank you for your steadfast love and faithfulness. Love Will
