June 7 Devotion - Feeling unloved - Feelings versus Truth

Do you ever feel unloved? Well, you are not alone. So how does God address this feeling? By pointing out the truth and ‘the truth will set us free’.

  

The best way to combat this emotion is to return to The Word of God and see what He says about us or to us.

Whenever we feel unloved, let us remember that God loves us so much that He sent His only Son to die in our place and grant us everlasting life.

 

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

لانه هكذا احب الله العالم حتى بذل ابنه الوحيد لكي لا يهلك كل من يؤمن به بل تكون له الحياة الابدية.

John 3:16

What Jesus did for us by dying in our place is the ultimate type of love, for Jesus said:

Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.

ليس لاحد حب اعظم من هذا ان يضع احد نفسه لاجل احبائه .

John 15:13

Let us remember that Jesus prayed for us and asked God to sanctify us by His truth. Truth about us is what is important not our feelings.

Sanctify them in the truth [set them apart for Your purposes, make them holy]; Your word is truth.

قدسهم في حقك. كلامك هو حق

John 17:17

 

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father,  whenever I feel unloved, remind me of Your love, and Your promises. Sanctify me by Your truth Father and ‘cut’ this feeling of being unloved and ‘paste’ Your love for me deep into my heart and my spirit. Through the truth that Jesus loves me so much that he considers me His friend and He died in my place, I will never ever feel unloved again. Thank You Father God for Your unfailing, inseparable, deep and everlasting love for me and Your abundant blessings in my life and for the riches of Your grace upon my life. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray. To Jesus be the power, the glory, and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Jesus loves you,

In Him,
