Psalm 106:44-46
New International Version (NIV)
44 Yet he took note of their distress
when he heard their cry;
45 for their sake he remembered his covenant
and out of his great love he relented.
46 He caused all who held them captive
to show them mercy.
This is a beautiful picture of God's great love for His people who deserve only judgment. Fortunately, God's compassion and mercy toward us are not limited by our faithfulness to Him. God was merciful to us in sending His Son to die for our sins. If He did this while we were captive to sin, how much more merciful will He be now that we are His children.
