But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him.” – 1 Corinthians 2:9

Do you know you are truly loved by God today? If you answer this question honestly, you will discover the foundational health of your spiritual life. Many followers of Christ gladly accept the gift of salvation yet struggle to feel loved by their Creator God.  

The enemy seeks to warp your understanding of God. The original temptation for humanity was to doubt Him. The deceiver plants seeds of shame over your failures and of mistrust toward God’s kind and caring intentions towards you. However, when you choose to believe in the Lord’s intention to bless you, both now and in the future, you discover something amazing. The places that you feel the deepest shame and guilt are also where God prepares His most lavish love and mercy. His gifts of grace have nothing to do with your performance. They are grounded in His compassionate, unbreakable Word and the desire to rescue humans from the adversary’s grip.    

God’s love is bigger than your mistakes and failures. As you accept His love, your testimony becomes part of His plan to display His grace and glory to the world. As you pray for the United States today, ask that people, including governing officials, will come to know, penitently accept, and return the Father’s unconditional and healing love.
