How do we know God's mercy is always available?

God's mercy is described as the 'sure mercies' He offers through His covenant with Christ. This covenant, established before the foundation of the world, guarantees that God's mercy is not only available but is also unwavering. The Apostle Paul emphasizes that we have obtained mercy through Christ, ensuring our access to God's grace and help in times of need. This is reinforced in Hebrews 4:16, where we are encouraged to approach the throne of grace confidently to receive mercy. Thus, believers can trust that God's mercy is ever-present and reliable in every calamity they face.
