What does the Bible say about fetching grace?

Answered in 1 source

Fetching grace is illustrated in 2 Samuel 9, where King David shows mercy to Mephibosheth, symbolizing God's grace to sinners.

Fetching grace is a profound biblical concept exemplified in 2 Samuel 9, where King David reaches out to Mephibosheth, the crippled grandson of his enemy, King Saul. This act symbolizes God the Father’s merciful initiative towards sinners, who, by nature, are at enmity with Him, much like Mephibosheth was initially estranged from David. God seeks out those who hide from Him due to the guilt of sin, similar to Adam hiding after the Fall (Genesis 3:8), demonstrating that grace is not initiated by the sinner but by God Himself.
