God’s grace and mercy are evident in His dealings with His people, as displayed through His covenant promises and the work of Jesus Christ.
In Exodus 3, God demonstrates His grace by calling Moses and telling him of His intention to deliver Israel from bondage. This calling and deliverance signify God's unmerited favor towards His people, showing that His mercy is not dependent on human effort or worthiness. As stated in Romans 8:29, those whom God foreknew, He predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, emphasizing that divine mercy is rooted in His eternal plan. The beauty of sovereign grace lies in the fact that it operates apart from human will; it is God who initiates salvation and kindness toward His chosen ones, reflecting His nature as the all-sufficient One who provides for our every need in both this life and the next.
