Do You Believe God Loves You?


PRAY OVER THIS


“I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.” John 17:23

 

PONDER THIS


How much does God love you? God loves you as much as He loves His Son, Jesus Christ. That’s hard for me to take in. When the Apostle John was speaking about this love he said, “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God” (1 John 3:1)! Do you know why John said, “What manner of love”? It seems like he was grasping for an adjective suitable to use. What colossal love, what stupendous love, what … I just can’t even think of a word. He just finally had to say, “what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God.” God loves you dear friend, and you are secure in God’s sovereign love.


How hard is it for you to believe God loves you as a father loves a child?

What makes this difficult? What helps you believe this?


PRACTICE THIS


Make a list of various passages that describe the love of God for His people, starting with the two verses in today’s devotion.
