Mercy is the Lord

2 Samuel 24:14-25
The Lord relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was afflicting the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand.”
David built an alter to the Lord. Araunah wanted to devote his threshing floor and oxen, but David don’t like sacrifice to the Lord burnt offerings that cost him nothing.
Why?
God has mercy to his people, Israel, but there were seven thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died. This is the punishment of the Lord to David.
The Lord has mercy as David mentioned when he chose the way of punishment to his sin. God did not pour more disaster to David.
How?
Honest repent may earn the mercy of the Lord, for God is mercy and righteousness.
