Never Forgotten

“Never! Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne? But even if that were possible, I would not forget you! See, I have written your name on the palms of my hands. — Isaiah 49:15-16a (NLT) Whenever we go through difficult situations, the lie of the enemy is that we are all alone. Don’t believe his lies for one minute. Our heavenly Father never forgets about you. You are always on His mind. Psalm 40:5 (NKJV) says, Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful works which You have done; And Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered. He knows when you sit down and when you rise up [your entire life, everything you do]; He understands your thought from afar. (Psalm 139:2a AMP). He goes before you and follows you. He places his hand of blessing on your head. (Psalm 139:5 NLT)

Constant Care

Watch out! Remember the three years I was with you—my constant watch and care over you night and day, and my many tears for you. — Acts 20:31 (NLT) Just as the Apostle Paul watched over the early church, our heavenly Father constantly cares for His people. He watches over us as we sleep and He is there to give us new compassions and mercies, every morning. His thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to Him in order; If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered. (Psalm 40:5b, NKJV). He goes before you and follows you. He places His hand of blessing on your head. (Psalm 139:5, NLT). Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you (1 Peter 5:7, NLT).

Light of the World

Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?” “No, Lord,” she said. And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.” — John 8:10-11 (NLT) It is not the heart of Jesus to condemn us. Satan condemns you and accuses you before our God day and night, but Jesus is our advocate. (Revelation 12:10; 1 John 2:1). Jesus calls us out of the darkness, to live on higher ground. He wants us to live in the light. Understand this: just like the woman caught in adultery, we are very valuable treasures to Jesus. We matter to Him. Jesus cherished us so much, He gave His very life for us. In John 8:12 (AMP) Jesus said, “I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” Why choose to dwell in darkness that leads to death when you can walk in the light, that leads to an abundant life of peace and joy, in the Kingdom of God?

Follow Close Behind

Image
When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches. Because You have been my help, therefore in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice. My soul follows close behind You; Your right hand upholds me. — Psalm 63:6-8 (NKJV) Think of the LORD and His goodness as you lie on your bed at night, because He faithfully brings you through each day. Abba Father awakens you in the morning and with His help you have the strength to get up. His fresh mercies and new compassions enable you to overcome challenges and fulfill all that He has called you to. Follow closely behind the LORD and His right hand will be your support.
