GOD WILL NEVER FORSAKEN YOU
"For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance." Psalm 94:14
Our God is not like a man. God loves you as you are; He loves you because you are His child. A parent does not love their child because there is some benefit they get from the child. A parent loves their child because they gave birth to them, and the child comes from them.
You, too, on this day, think of God differently. The Word says, "For the LORD will not reject his people," if you truly know that you belong to God, you believe Him and depend on Him, be assured that God has not forsaken you and will not forsake you at any time. The Word of God says,
"But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:12-13
If you believe in Jesus Christ, then you have become a child of God. Therefore, you should not fear that there will be a time when God is not with you. No matter your circumstances, even if you have your weaknesses, when you have the true intention to obey and love God your Father, even when you fail, His grace is still upon you to help you return to Him. So when you wrong God, do not condemn or reject yourself; surrender yourself to God with humility. God does not hate you; God loves you.
When you go through trials and hard times in your life, and nothing seems to be going as you want, there are times when thoughts and the voices of your enemies shout within you, just as it was with David. Psalm 71:10-11 says, "For my enemies speak against me; those who wait to kill me conspire together. They say, ‘God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for no one will rescue him.'" Your enemies always say this to discourage you, but you should have firm faith in yourself. Trust in God because He is faithful and can not abandon His people.
"But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. Isaiah 43:1-2"
Prayer: Oh, LORD, I thank you for your faithfulness. I know you are with me at all times. Grant me the grace to continue to believe in you and follow you. May I never forsake you because you have not forsaken me.
