Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Pastor Rick's Daily Hope with Rick Warren.
Speaker 1: We are so glad you're here with us today. We're
Speaker 1: going to continue our series called the Keys to a
Speaker 1: Blessed Life.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: In these messages, Rick walks through Jesus' Sermon on the
Speaker 1: Mount and shows us how to live a truly hopeful
Speaker 1: and purpose filled life. So let's jump right in with
Speaker 1: part one of your Ministry of Mercy.
Speaker 2: One of Saddleback's values, one of our ten key values,
Speaker 2: is every member is a minister. Not everybody is a pastor.
Speaker 2: But if you're called to follow Christ, you're called to serve.
Speaker 2: To be a servant is to be a minister. To
Speaker 2: be a minister, to be a servant the word serve
Speaker 2: and minister of the same in the Bible, and the
Speaker 2: Bible says every believer is a minister. Now, we all
Speaker 2: minister in different ways, but anytime you help somebody else
Speaker 2: in Jesus' name, that is called ministry. And as they said,
Speaker 2: the Bible says, there are different kinds of service, different
Speaker 2: kinds of ministries, but there is one ministry that we
Speaker 2: all have in common. And that's what I want us
Speaker 2: to look at this weekend. I call it your ministry
Speaker 2: of mercy. God wants you to be an agent of
Speaker 2: mercy in the world. There's not enough mercy in this world,
Speaker 2: and God wants you to be a provider. He wants
Speaker 2: you to be an agent. He wants you to be
Speaker 2: a purveyor of mercy in the world. Now, in the
Speaker 2: fifth Key to a blessed life, Jesus says this Matthew five,
Speaker 2: verse seven. God blesses those who are merciful, for they
Speaker 2: will be shown mercy. In other words, what you give out,
Speaker 2: you're going to get back. What you give you're going
Speaker 2: to get. God blesses those who are merciful, for they
Speaker 2: will be shown mercy. This is the fifth key to
Speaker 2: a blessed life. You got to learn to be a
Speaker 2: minister of mercy. Now, what is mercy. Well, usually we
Speaker 2: think of two things. Usually we think of forgiving people
Speaker 2: who don't deserve it, or we think of helping people
Speaker 2: who can't help themselves. And those are two definitions of
Speaker 2: mercy that we typically think of. But mercy, which by
Speaker 2: the way, is a part of God's character, has so
Speaker 2: much more to say and to do in your life
Speaker 2: than simply those two things. Mercy is really like a
Speaker 2: it's like a diamond. It's multifaceted. And this weekend I
Speaker 2: want us to look at seven facets of mercy, seven
Speaker 2: ways that you can transform your relationships, because I guarantee you,
Speaker 2: if you'll learn how to be an agent of mercy,
Speaker 2: it's going to change your work relationships, your marriage, your friendships,
Speaker 2: family relationships, any other relationship you've got if you learn
Speaker 2: how to be an agent of mercy. But before we
Speaker 2: look at how to practice mercy in a relationship, I
Speaker 2: want to just ask the question why, why in the
Speaker 2: world should I be merciful? So just write these four down.
Speaker 2: This is kind of a little introduction here. And the
Speaker 2: first reason that we need to show mercy is because
Speaker 2: God has shown me mercy. God has shown me mercy.
Speaker 2: The Bible says that God is merciful. It's emphasized all
Speaker 2: through the Bible. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of
Speaker 2: scripture to talk about God's mercy and his love, his compassion,
Speaker 2: and his grace. Let me show you a couple verses.
Speaker 2: One is up here on the screen. Ephesians chapter two,
Speaker 2: verse four or five says this God's mercy is so abundant,
Speaker 2: and his love for us is so great that why
Speaker 2: we were spiritually dead in our disobedience. He brought us
Speaker 2: to life with Christ. It is by God's grace you
Speaker 2: have been saved. God has shown mercy to us. Now
Speaker 2: the point is this, God wants me to act in
Speaker 2: the same way to our other people. He wants me
Speaker 2: to pass on the mercy that I received from God.
Speaker 2: He wants me to pass on. Look at the next verse.
Speaker 2: It's there on your outline, Matthew eighteen. Shouldn't you have
Speaker 2: mercy on others just as I had mercy on you.
Speaker 2: Jesus is telling a story here about an unmerciful employee
Speaker 2: and he owes his boss some money, and the boss says, well,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna show mercy on you. Let's just clear your
Speaker 2: debt and I'm gonna just wipe it off and just
Speaker 2: say we're even. And the guy can't believe it because
Speaker 2: he's been shown such great mercy. But then he goes
Speaker 2: out to some people who owe him some money far
Speaker 2: less money, and he starts grabbing him by the throat.
Speaker 2: He say, pay me or I'm going to have you
Speaker 2: thrown in prison. When the boss hears about it, he goes,
Speaker 2: what are you doing. I was merciful to you, and
Speaker 2: you're not merciful to the people around you. You're a
Speaker 2: wicked guy. And he throws him in prison. God says,
Speaker 2: if I show mercy to you, I expect you to
Speaker 2: show it to others. God has shown me mercy. Second reason,
Speaker 2: God come d me to be merciful. God commands me
Speaker 2: to be merciful. There's a verse in the Bible in Micah.
Speaker 2: I'm going to show it to you up here on
Speaker 2: the screen. It's again one of many verses. God has
Speaker 2: told you what is good and what he requires from you. Okay,
Speaker 2: so whatever comes next is what God says is good
Speaker 2: and is required of you. And here's what's required of you.
Speaker 2: Three things. To do what is right with others, to
Speaker 2: love being merciful to others, and to live humbly in
Speaker 2: fellowship with God. Now leave that up there for a minute.
Speaker 2: That's if you want to summarize what life's all about.
Speaker 2: God says, this is what's required of you. If you're
Speaker 2: going to be in my family, if you're going to
Speaker 2: be my child, you got to do what's right with others.
Speaker 2: You got to love being merciful to others, and you
Speaker 2: got to live humbly in fellowship with God. One third
Speaker 2: of God's requirement for you on this planet is to
Speaker 2: learn mercy. Why because God is let me shock you
Speaker 2: with this next statement. God says that being merciful is
Speaker 2: more important than worship. Did you hear that? God says
Speaker 2: that you being merciful to other people is actually more
Speaker 2: important than worship. Hoseiah six, verse six. God says this,
Speaker 2: I don't want your sacrifices. I want you to be merciful.
Speaker 2: Now what is he saying here? He's saying, I don't
Speaker 2: want your acts of worship. I want you to be merciful.
Speaker 2: This is much more important. In fact, this verse Hoseiah
Speaker 2: chapter six, verse six is so important Jesus quotes it
Speaker 2: two times in his ministry in two totally unrelated situations
Speaker 2: in debates with the Pharisees. This is one of the
Speaker 2: most important verses in the Bible. So look at it again.
Speaker 2: I don't want your sacrifices. I want you to be merciful.
Speaker 2: God is saying, I prefer a flexible heart over in
Speaker 2: an inflexible ritual. I don't care if you come, and
Speaker 2: saying I praise you. I love you, you're great and
Speaker 2: all of that, and then you go out and you
Speaker 2: treat people like dirt. You treat your wife or your husband,
Speaker 2: or your children, or your friends, or the people you
Speaker 2: work with, or or people who are working at fast
Speaker 2: food joints, whatever. He says. If you don't treat people
Speaker 2: with mercy, you've missed the whole point. God's shown me mercy,
Speaker 2: and he commands me to be merciful. There's a third
Speaker 2: reason I need to learn what we're gonna look at
Speaker 2: this weekend, and it's because I'm gonna need more mercy
Speaker 2: in the future. I'm gonna need more mercy in the future.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna be perfect between now and when you
Speaker 2: get to heaven. And the Bible tells us that we
Speaker 2: cannot receive what we are unwilling to give. And so
Speaker 2: in James Chapter two James two, verse thirteen, the Bible
Speaker 2: says this, you must circle that word must. You must
Speaker 2: show mercy to others, or God won't show mercy to you.
Speaker 2: But here's the good news. The person who shows mercy
Speaker 2: can stand without fear at the judgment. Don't you want
Speaker 2: to be able to do that on judgment day? To
Speaker 2: be able to stand without fear on judgment day. It says,
Speaker 2: the person who shows mercy can stand without fear on
Speaker 2: the judgment day. Now there's the fourth reason, and that
Speaker 2: is showing mercy brings or causes happiness. Showing mercy brings happiness,
Speaker 2: it's really the source of happiness. The Bible teaches over
Speaker 2: and over in scripture that the more merciful I am,
Speaker 2: the happier I'm going to be. Remember the beatitude is
Speaker 2: the word blessed also means happy macarios. He's saying, happy
Speaker 2: are the merciful. If you want to be happy, you
Speaker 2: need to learn this quality. And the more you learn
Speaker 2: this quality, the happier you're going to be. Look at
Speaker 2: this verse on the screen. The Bible says, if you
Speaker 2: want to be happy, Roverbs fourteen twenty one, be kind
Speaker 2: to those in need. And then he says, it is
Speaker 2: a sin to despise anyone. And let me show you
Speaker 2: another one. Proverbs eleven seventeen says this, a merciful person
Speaker 2: helps himself, but the cool person hurts himself. So you
Speaker 2: actually help yourself when you are merciful. I love this
Speaker 2: verse Proverbs eleven seventeen. In the Living Bible, it says,
Speaker 2: your own soul is nourished when you show mercy. Your
Speaker 2: own soul is nourished when you show mercy. So these
Speaker 2: four reasons God shown me mercy. He commands me to
Speaker 2: be merciful. I'll need mercy in the future and it's
Speaker 2: the key to happiness. Tell me that this is an
Speaker 2: important quality that I need to build into my life.
Speaker 2: All right, let's look at how can I learn this
Speaker 2: quality of mercy in a world that's not very merciful,
Speaker 2: it's pretty unmerciful. How do I fulfill what God can
Speaker 2: my ministry of mercy. Some of these ways you're quite
Speaker 2: familiar with, but I guarantee you there's a few of
Speaker 2: them that you probably have never even thought of. Oh
Speaker 2: that's a part of mercy, and yes it is too.
Speaker 2: Let's look at them. Number one, be patient with people's quirks.
Speaker 2: Be patient with people's quirks. I'm talking about don't look
Speaker 2: at them right now. They're idiosyncrasies, their peculiarities, their mannerisms,
Speaker 2: their odd behavior, they're irritating habits. You know what I'm
Speaker 2: talking about, right, Okay, you show mercy. You show mercy
Speaker 2: when you don't get irritated and you don't get angry,
Speaker 2: and you don't get uptight with people's personal quirks. And
Speaker 2: we've all got them. You've got them, I've got them,
Speaker 2: and we've all got these little mannerism and irritating habits.
Speaker 2: A way of speaking and thinking and talking and acting.
Speaker 2: When you control your anger and when you refuse to
Speaker 2: get upset by people's quirks, you are showing mercy. It's
Speaker 2: a very practical way. Now, I want to give you
Speaker 2: maybe the most important marriage advice you'll ever get in
Speaker 2: your life. It's the next verse Ephesians four to two.
Speaker 2: Be patient with each other, making allowances for each other's faults.
Speaker 2: Why because of your love circle the phrase making allowance,
Speaker 2: making allowance for each other's faults. You see, you married
Speaker 2: a sinner, guys, and she married a bigger one. Two
Speaker 2: imperfect people cannot make a perfect marriage. You have faults,
Speaker 2: your spouse has faults. And marriage is the great. Marriage
Speaker 2: is the union of two great forgivers. That's what makes
Speaker 2: a great marriage. It's the union of two great forgivers.
Speaker 2: Now it says here, make allowance for each other's faults,
Speaker 2: because your love the number one place you need to
Speaker 2: learn to show mercy is at home. It's at home.
Speaker 2: Why because you see each other's faults far more than
Speaker 2: anybody else does, and you're up close and personal with
Speaker 2: those faults, and you've got to live with them the
Speaker 2: rest of your life. So show mercy. Show mercy, you know.
Speaker 2: And when I used to do marriage counseling, I discovered
Speaker 2: that marriages don't die usually because of one big catastrophe.
Speaker 2: Marriages are buried because of a lot of little digs,
Speaker 2: and they're just little nagging and digging and nagging and digging.
Speaker 2: It says, make allowance for each other's faults because of
Speaker 2: your love. Look over this verse on the screen. James
Speaker 2: two thirteen says, the man who makes no allowances for
Speaker 2: others will find none made for him. None may show mercy.
Speaker 2: The Bible says we show mercy by being patient with
Speaker 2: each other's quirks, our foibles, our weaknesses, are mistakes, all
Speaker 2: of the things that make us make us human. Say
Speaker 2: I really want to do that? How do I How
Speaker 2: do I get more patience with my kids, with my spouse,
Speaker 2: with my friends? How do I get more patient? One
Speaker 2: word wisdom. The wiser you get, the more patient you
Speaker 2: will be. The Bible says this in James Chapter three.
Speaker 2: The wisdom that comes from heaven is pure and peace loving,
Speaker 2: and gentle at all times, circle all gentle at all times,
Speaker 2: and is willing to yield to others. Wisdom is full
Speaker 2: of mercy. The wiser you get, the more merciful you get.
Speaker 2: A lot of people who think they're wise. Aren't there, pompous?
Speaker 2: Pompous you thought I was going to say that worried.
Speaker 2: Wisdom is full of mercy. Now, notice it says there
Speaker 2: wisdom from heaven is peace loving. If you're not peace loving,
Speaker 2: you're not wise. It says it's general at all times.
Speaker 2: If you're easily irritated, you're not wise. It says it's
Speaker 2: willing to yield. If you're unwilling to yield, you're not wise.
Speaker 2: The wiser I become, the more patient and merciful I become,
Speaker 2: the more unbending, the more irritating, the more angry, the
Speaker 2: more I get upset, the more foolish, the Bible says,
Speaker 2: I am. If you're easily irritated, you're not wise. So
Speaker 2: be patient with people's quirks. Number two, the second way
Speaker 2: to practice mercy this week, help anyone hurting around me
Speaker 2: help anyone hurting around me. They're hurting people all around you,
Speaker 2: but too often we're too busy to notice it. If
Speaker 2: you care, you'll be aware. Jesus told the story of
Speaker 2: the Good Samaritan to teach this very point about helping
Speaker 2: the hurting around us is the meaning of mercy. A
Speaker 2: guy came to Jesus one day and he said, Jesus,
Speaker 2: what's the most important command in the Bible? Okay, give
Speaker 2: me the bottom line here. I don't have time to
Speaker 2: read the whole Bible, So what is it that matters most?
Speaker 2: And Jesus said, oh, that's really easy. It's two things.
Speaker 2: Love God with all your heart and love your neighbor
Speaker 2: as yourself. That's the whole Bible in a nutshell. Love
Speaker 2: God with all your heart and love your neighbors yourself. Now,
Speaker 2: the guy wants to get out of this, and he's
Speaker 2: kind of weasling out of us. He says, so love
Speaker 2: your neighbors yourself. Yeah, who's my neighbor? And Jesus says, well,
Speaker 2: let me tell you a story, and he tells the
Speaker 2: story of the famous story of the Good Samaritan, of
Speaker 2: the man who was going down the road to Jericho
Speaker 2: and he is he's robbed, and he's beaten, and he's abused,
Speaker 2: and he's left for dead at the side of the road,
Speaker 2: and three guys pass by him, and two of them
Speaker 2: do nothing, and the third guy of another race and
Speaker 2: culture stops and helps him, nurses him back to health,
Speaker 2: puts him on his donkey, takes him to a hotel
Speaker 2: or motel, checks in, pays the bill for the guy
Speaker 2: and says that if he has any other bills, when
Speaker 2: I come back by, I'll pay for it. And Jesus
Speaker 2: looks at the guy. He says, who's my neighbors? Who
Speaker 2: do you think was the neighbor? And the man says,
Speaker 2: the guy who showed the most mercy, the guy who
Speaker 2: showed the most mercy. You cannot love your neighbor as
Speaker 2: yourself without being merciful. And we help those around us.
Speaker 2: Look at some verses here priors three twenty seven. Whenever
Speaker 2: you possibly can do good to those who need it,
Speaker 2: you got to look for it now. By the way,
Speaker 2: when you are helping people in need, and they're going
Speaker 2: to be people in your area of life this week
Speaker 2: that God intentionally puts in your life to allow you
Speaker 2: to practice mercy. They're going to have an emotional need,
Speaker 2: they're going to have a physical need, a financial need.
Speaker 2: They may just need an assistance. They may need, you know,
Speaker 2: help you to care for him in some way. God,
Speaker 2: when he's watching you, is not simply watching what you do.
Speaker 2: He's watching your attitude. Look at this verse Romans twelve eight.
Speaker 2: When you do acts of mercy, show mercy with what cheerfulness? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Circle that with cheerfulness. He says. You don't do it
Speaker 2: grinning and bearing it. You don't do it as a
Speaker 2: grudging attitude. I love this verse Romans twelve eight. And
Speaker 2: the message paraphrase look up here on the screen. It
Speaker 2: says this, if you work with the disadvantaged, don't let
Speaker 2: yourself get irritated with them or depressed by them. Keep
Speaker 2: a smile on your face. That's good word. Keep a
Speaker 2: smile on you. That, friends, is mercy. Mercy is being
Speaker 2: patient with people's quirks, and it's being helpful with people's hurts.
Speaker 2: Number three third way you can show mercy this week.
Speaker 2: Give people a second chance, and everybody needs that. Give
Speaker 2: people a second chance. We forgive the fallen, especially those
Speaker 2: who have hurt you. You need to forgive now that's
Speaker 2: not normal, is it? Normally? When somebody hurts us, we
Speaker 2: want to do one or two things, either A get
Speaker 2: even or B write them off. Somebody hurts you, you
Speaker 2: don't want to be giving them a second chance, your
Speaker 2: natural inclination. That guy hurt me at work, you know,
Speaker 2: he messed me up. He you know, he put me
Speaker 2: down in front of somebody else. Whatever, you either want
Speaker 2: to get back or you want to write them off.
Speaker 2: But here's what the Bible says Ephesians four. Don't get
Speaker 2: bitter or angry or use harsh words that hurt each other.
Speaker 2: Don't yell at one another or curse or ever be rude. Instead,
Speaker 2: be kind and merciful and forgive others just as God
Speaker 2: forgave you. Now, notice in that verse, Jesus contrast or
Speaker 2: the Bible contrast mercy with six negative responses. You might
Speaker 2: circle those, okay, because he says, if you want to help,
Speaker 2: if you want to be merciful, he says, don't get bitter.
Speaker 2: That's number one. Don't get angry, don't use harsh words,
Speaker 2: don't yell, don't curse, and don't be rude. Do you
Speaker 2: see why mercy is so important today? Because that's the
Speaker 2: way the world acts today. That's the world responds with bitterness,
Speaker 2: harsh words, hurt. If you don't believe it, just go
Speaker 2: on the internet and you'll see that there's very, very
Speaker 2: little mercy on the internet. How would you rate yourself
Speaker 2: on mercy? How would you rate yourself bitter, angry, harsh words,
Speaker 2: you yelled, your courage, you get rude, or you always
Speaker 2: kind and merciful for giving others just as God forgave you.
Speaker 2: How would you rate yourself in this See, we want
Speaker 2: saddle Back to be known, not for our size, and
Speaker 2: not for our great programs or great music or anything else.
Speaker 2: We want saddle Back to be known. That's the church
Speaker 2: of mercy. That's the church of mercy, and when you
Speaker 2: go there, that's the place to get a second chance.
Speaker 2: In fact, it's in our values. You know. We have
Speaker 2: this word saddleback S A D, D, L, E, B
Speaker 2: A C K, and each letter represents one of our
Speaker 2: ten values we talk about in class one oh one,
Speaker 2: and the first s of Saddleback is second chants, place
Speaker 2: of grace. This is very thing here. It's we want
Speaker 2: this to be a church of mercy, a second chance
Speaker 2: place of grace where if you've messed up. You need
Speaker 2: to start over. You need a fresh start. This is
Speaker 2: the Church for you, and so we are to do
Speaker 2: We are to give people a second chance. Number four
Speaker 2: Another way to show mercy, do good to those who
Speaker 2: hurt me. I am to do good to those who
Speaker 2: hurt me. See, if you really boil it down, mercy
Speaker 2: is giving people what they need, not what they deserve.
Speaker 2: That's mercy, giving people what they need, not what they deserve.
Speaker 2: Why because that's what God does with you. God gives
Speaker 2: you what you need, not what you deserve. If I
Speaker 2: got what I deserve from God, I wouldn't be standing here.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be alive. But the Bible says we give
Speaker 2: people what they need, not what they deserve, and we
Speaker 2: do good to those who are Why should I do
Speaker 2: good to those who hurt me? How many times have
Speaker 2: you heard me say hurt people? Hurt people? Yeah, hurt
Speaker 2: people hurt people. And the people who you want to
Speaker 2: love the least are those who need it the most.
Speaker 2: The most hurtful people are those who need massive doses
Speaker 2: of love and mercy. Let me ask you to just
Speaker 2: think in your mind, who's hurt you the most in life?
Speaker 2: Think about that who hurts you the most in life?
Speaker 2: They need your mercy. Let me ask you this, who's
Speaker 2: hurts you the most recently in life? They need your mercy.
Speaker 2: The Bible says this in Luke chapter six, Jesus says,
Speaker 2: love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to
Speaker 2: them without expecting anything back, sa witmute, Why would I
Speaker 2: want to do that? Well, remember those four reasons we
Speaker 2: went over. God shown me mercy. He commands me to
Speaker 2: be merciful. I'm gonna need mercy in the future, and
Speaker 2: it's the key to happiness. Anytime you hold on to hurt,
Speaker 2: you're making yourself miserable. You're not hurting them. Love your enemies,
Speaker 2: do good to them, and lend to them without expecting
Speaker 2: get anything back. You see, if somebody hurts you, that
Speaker 2: puts you above them. If you forgive them, if you
Speaker 2: get even, you're just on the same level. You know
Speaker 2: better than they are. If you get even, if you
Speaker 2: do a hurt, you're beneath them. If you get even,
Speaker 2: you get you're even. But if you forgive them, you're
Speaker 2: above them. Morally, Love your enemies, do good to them,
Speaker 2: and lend to them without expecting anything back. Then your
Speaker 2: reward will be great. There's a motivation, and you will
Speaker 2: be the children the most high. In other words, you
Speaker 2: get the identity because God is kind to the ungrateful
Speaker 2: and wicked. Is God kind to the ungrateful and wicked?
Speaker 2: Just look at the world. God is kind to the
Speaker 2: ungrateful and wicked, and so he says, so be merciful,
Speaker 2: just as your Father is merciful.
