Does He Love Me
Good morning
Scripture: Romans 5:6-11
Worship song: You still love me
Meditation:
The hardest thing you might face when you make mistakes or
bad choices is rejection. People may reject, avoid, or even turn their backs on
you because of your constant display of imperfection, mistakes, and bad
choices. You may feel dispirited because you are treated with disdain by
persons who consider themselves righteous and holy. Feeling rejected and cast
down by a brother or sister may cause you to ask, Can God still love me? Yes,
He loves you. The truth is that God still loves us regardless of what we have
done. God knows every mistake and bad choice we would make even before we were
conceived in our mother's womb, yet He still loves us. He still loves us no
matter how many sins we have committed. The fact is, He knows every sin we
commit, and that is why He sent Jesus Christ to die for us, so we can be free
from the shackles of sin. God hates sin but loves the sinner. The Lord is not
slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness, but is longsuffering
to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to
repentance. The Lord GOD has no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that
the wicked turn from his evil ways. Though we falter and make mistakes, God's
arms are open wide to receive us as soon as we repent of our evil deeds.
Sovereign God, your grace and mercies have brought us
through. We are living this moment because of you, O God, and so, Lord, I thank
you for loving us despite our flaws, our mistakes, and our self-willpower.
Father, we thank you for you loved us so much that you sacrificed your only son
to die for the remission of our sins. Almighty God, you came not for the
righteous, but for the sake of sinners, the crippled, and the lame, and for
this, we are grateful. Merciful Father, sometimes we make choices that leave us
with regrets and a feeling of unworthiness. Lord, we sometimes make bad
decisions that leave us facing a torrent of guilt. Father, we repent of our
iniquities, our wicked deeds, and wantonness. Father, whatever is keeping us
hostage, keeping us chained to sin, and preventing us from committing all to
you, we seek your divine intervention for spiritual and physical healing of our
mind, body, and soul. Break, O God, the chains that held us captive, the chains
that bind us to sin, so we can surrender to you and connect to the tree of life
in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Have a peaceful day. Keep safe. 💕🙏
The unconditional love of God takes to the cliff of our circumstances or the pit of our hopelessness. No circumstances too shameful or obscure that He cannot address. If one practice sin, fall in sin, once sin is mentioned He is ready to rub and scrub one clean for the kingdom. He loves us unconditionally. Once we possess that love through our continued relationship with Him, one will also show to others what they received but one must grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and maintain that level of maturity. Oh love of God so rich and pure, so measureless and strong.
