FIRE SCRIPTURE: Luke 10:25-37 (KJV)
25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,
34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.
36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?
37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

MFM Devotional For Today 2024 MESSAGE:
The dictionary defines compassion as a strong feeling of sympathy for someone who is suffering, and a desire to help him or her. There cannot be compassion without love and mercy. The compassionate love of God is the central theme of the Bible. It reflects God’s own nature, which we are to emulate in our dealings with others. Compassion is a powerful force.

God was moved by compassion to save mankind from eternal damnation through the great sacrifice of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, on the cross (John 3:16). There are many instances in the Bible where Jesus was moved by compassion to attend to the needs of people. Matthew 9:36 says, “But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.” And also in Mark 6:34, the Bible says, “And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.” If you read further down this passage, you would observe that apart from teaching the people, He also fed them so much that they had leftovers. Lamentations 3:22 says, “It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.” This passage of the Scriptures tells us that God’s compassion is renewed every morning. It never stops until a person by himself puts a stop to it. Look at what Psalm 103:13 says, “Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him.” So, the fear of the Lord perpetuates His compassion over a person. Those who do not fear the Lord are not assured of His compassion.
Compassion is indeed a powerful force that is why the Bible instructs us to show compassion. Colossians 3:12 enjoins us to: “Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.”
