Have you noticed that you are prone to sinful behavior when you do not feel loved? Have you ever identified your sinful behavior patterns during times like these? When you do not feel loved, do you start wearing a mask, thinking if you were a different person, you might be loved more? When you do not feel loved, do you run away from situations and hide, because of the oppressing pain in your heart? Do you place the blame on others when you do not feel loved?
I HAVE GIVEN THEM THE GLORY THAT YOU GAVE ME, THAT THEY MAY BE ONE AS WE ARE ONE: I IN THEM AND YOU IN ME. MAY THEY BE BROUGHT TO COMPLETE UNITY TO LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT YOU SENT ME AND HAVE LOVED THEM EVEN AS YOU HAVE LOVED ME
(John 17:22-23).
Precious Child, listen to My Word for you, today: It is MY LOVE that you crave the most, not your mother’s, not your father’s, not your sister’s, not your brother’s, not your husband’s. Stop looking for love in all the wrong places. Come to ME, your Father in Heaven, first. I will give you what you are looking for, because I, the Lord God, love you as much as I love My Son, Jesus. After you have received My Love, other people’s lack of love toward you will not matter to you that much, because My Love will fill you. It will shield you from the evil one—from the negative, destructive beliefs of the father-of-lies that deem you abandoned, shameful, rejected, and condemned.
I HAVE GIVEN THEM YOUR WORD; AND THE WORLD HAS HATED THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD, JUST AS I AM NOT OF THE WORLD. I DO NOT PRAY THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE THEM OUT OF THE WORLD, BUT THAT YOU SHOULD KEEP THEM FROM THE EVIL ONE
(John 17:14-15).
So, the next time you do not feel loved, do not hide your pain, run from your own heart, or blame your state of not being loved on those who do not love you. Instead, come and sit on My lap. Come into oneness with Me. EMBRACE your pain, EXPOSE your unloved heart to Me, and allow Me to EXCHANGE your sorrow for My Love.
Identify the sinful behavior patterns you have concocted for not feeling loved. Find the negative, destructive beliefs of the father-of-lies that manifest in your heart. Then, come to the Father, so He may deposit HIS LOVE into your heart.
PRAYER: How splendid are Your ways, Father in Heaven—to offer me the same Love You have for Your Son, Jesus. I shall not lack. Instead of running away from the pain of not feeling loved, I EMBRACE that pain and bring it to You, Lord God. I EXPOSE my unloved heart to You, making it accessible for Your Love. EXCHANGE the negative, destructive beliefs that make me feel so unloved for Your Love, Lord God, taking what is in my heart…and giving me what is in Yours.
Maintain an Awareness
Woe to us, the rebellious children, when we take counsel from the father-of-lies, and when we cover ourselves with coverings that are not from God. We will add sin to sin.
