How can believers have confidence in God's mercy?

Confidence in God’s mercy stems from His covenant faithfulness and the assurance of His promises. Psalm 69:16 highlights the psalmist's plea, 'Hear me, O Lord, for thy lovingkindness is good; turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.' This demonstrates a deep trust in God’s character, knowing He is merciful and compassionate toward His people. Believers today can mirror this confidence because God's mercy is displayed supremely through Christ, whose death and resurrection secured our salvation. Titus 3:5 reminds us that 'not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us.' Therefore, through faith in Christ, believers can be assured of experiencing God’s steadfast mercy in their lives.
