YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER LOVES YOU INTENSELY
By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi
Luke 11:11 - "If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?"
The statistics of victims of parental abuse is on the increase .Most victims suffer verbal, physical , emotional and even sexual abuse and the worst of them all , spiritual abuse (parental curses ,exposure to mediums ,false prophets and other demonic activities) Abuse leaves a bitter, long- lasting impressions on us and forms part of the building block of a human being from where character is formed. This results in an overwhelming fear of the unknown and suspicions , consequently , we are most inclined to embrace doubt instead of godly faith and more tolerant to falsehood than truth; this is the reason behind so many failed relationships .
One of the consequences of parental abuse is the inability to trust God's ability to provide for us ,we are quick to adduce all manner of reasons for not receiving from God instead of putting our trust in His unfailing love. We have been trained to trust in self instead of God and haven been exposed for so long to other victims of abuse, the concept of true love is seen as an illusion by many . Research shows that abused persons in turn become abusers too with an insatiable craving for self-pity.
Our salvation by Jesus Christ was not out of pity or a lack of choices by our maker and Creator. He saved us because He loved us (John 3:16). It was the "good pleasure of his will" for us to become adopted sons and joint heirs in the family of God Rom 8:17” And since we are His children, we will share His treasures-for all God gives to His Son Jesus is now ours too.TLB (Eph.1:5). We are desired and accepted by our heavenly Father. Hallelujah!
None of us truly deserve to be forgiven by God however, beyond mere forgiveness we are given the same rights and privileges due Jesus Christ , this of cause is beyond all expectations but He did it anyways out of His good pleasure because of His unconditional love for us.
Precious and dearly loved child of God, you occupy a special place in God's heart, and He has gladly chosen you as a member of His royal family{1Pet.2:9}. The Lord does not just tolerate us; He actually loves us and rejoices over us with joy (Zeph. 3:17).
We are expected to daily walk in the consciousness of God's love for us. Whenever we acknowledge His love, the chains of self pity, rejection, depression are demolished .
Prayer : Heavenly Father, forgive me of my sins against you, I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation and I receive him as lord and saviour and receive grace for uncommon access to God's provisions in Jesus name.
