God Desires Mercy, Not Sacrifice

“For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.” (Hosea‬ ‭6:6‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The Law of Moses is not God’s main agenda. He doesn’t look at the system of the Law and feel pleased about it.

What He loves is to show mankind mercy. He made a way to do that through the New Covenant of Grace. Under Grace, God can be merciful to us because Jesus righteously received all the punishment for sins that we deserved.

God is not impressed by rituals and rites. He does not delight in the rivers of blood that flowed from the multitudes of animals offered as sacrifice.

This is what He wants: for us to know Him as our loving Abba, Father.

To truly know God is to know that He is love, and that He is pure light, without any darkness at all.

Are you still seeing God through the tinted lens of the Law and how He dealt with Israel under the Old Covenant?

Let the gloriously radiant Gospel of Grace remove those lens so that you can see God for who He is—that He is full of grace, mercy, truth and love.

“The city has no need for the sun, neither of the moon, to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb. The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.” (Revelation‬ ‭21:23-24‬ ‭WEB‬)

The Book of Revelation is a beautiful book, and it is filled with glorious hope for a believer’s future. Understand it: https://bit.ly/bookofrevelationexplained
