Mercy

Song three in Finding God on your iPod 2015 is "Mercy" by Muse. The cry, show me mercy from the powers that be, is actually this cry: Show me the church! Show me the body of Christ that is characterized by compassion and looks like Jesus! Without knowing it, Muse is actually being very prophetic; they’re saying, Please, church, won’t you act like Jesus so we can see mercy!Which is why the church in America can be neither Democrat nor Republican. If we import their politics of power into the church, we import the spirits of the principalities and powers into the church and we become deeply compromised.As Christians we don’t follow a donkey or an elephant…we follow the Lamb!
