God Loves You – Yes You!

God loves you, yes you!  I know we hear that a lot as Christians but do we live our lives like we believe it?

Let’s toss this idea around a bit.  When you meet someone your interested in doesn’t it change your behavior?  You try to run into them more, you dress better when you think you’re going to see them and once you meet them you rearrange your life’s calendar to fit them in, right?  All of this makes you happier as you ponder all the possibilities.  Doesn’t this put pep in your step?  But did you do all of these things when you first meet God?  Remember when you first got saved and you loved the idea and you loved going to church?  But how much of that time was spent really getting to know God for yourself in one on one sessions?  How many “dates” did you actually have with God?  Revelations 3:20 (cev);  Listen! I am standing and knocking at your door. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in and we will eat together. tells us that God wants to hang out and spend time with us.

God created you because He loves how He made you and He just wants to spend as much time with you as He can.  I used Joshua 1:8 (amp); This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success to get me started with my “dates” with God.  This scripture tells us to think about the word in all our waking moments of our lives.  I choose to learn about what God has to say regarding the things that were of interest in my life.  I was a mother and a business person so I began to search for scriptures that taught me what God had to say about those subjects.  Then I simply put time on the calendar to ask Him my questions about them. Those conversations were amazing!  They were also the beginning of a wonderful relationship.  Then using Joshua 1:8 as a guide, I simply began to talk and ask God questions throughout the day.  I learned more from God in those moments than in all the time I spent in church.  This was more detailed and more personal.  It has become a great part of my life and even when I disagree and I’m mad at God, I still talk and share those feelings with Him.  He’s a big God, He can take it.

For many, the perception of sin that Satan has put on us keeps us from approaching God on a personal level because Satan has told us that we are not good enough or that God won’t hear us, but Satan is a lie!  All of us have some sin in our past and it has caused us to do things that were not so nice.  So why would God want to spend time with me after all the bad things I’ve done?  How could He love me after that?  The answer is simple – God chooses to love us and He knows we’re not perfect and He loves us anyway!  Isn’t that how you love?  The people in our lives are not perfect but that doesn’t stop us from spending loving them and spending time with them.  OK, I hear you – none of us are perfect so we don’t mind spending time with each other, but God is perfect, why would a perfect being want to be with us?  God wants to spend time with us to give us a chance to get closer to perfection, to be better and to show us His power.  Lets look at Romans 3:23-24: Yes, all have sinned; all fall short of God’s glorious ideal; 24 yet now God declares us “not guilty” of offending him if we trust in Jesus Christ, who in his kindness freely takes away our sins (living). 

God Loves You!

That’s God’s objective, He wants to free us from sin.  I’m an ex-drug addict, an ex-drug dealer, an ex-liar, an ex-ho and I lot of other ex’s.  I don’t have to pretend I didn’t do all of those things (and more) because God’s love and my accepting of that love via spending time with Him and obeying Him has freed me from all of that!  We all know John 3:16-18 (msg); This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him.  God knew every mistake you would make and He sent you to earth anyway.  So there is nothing you’ve done or might do that’s a surprise to God.  It may have surprised you but not Him.  God know how powerful His love is and how it can transform you, you just have to realize it.

God love you so much that He made big plans for you, Jeremiah 29:11 says;  I will bless you with a future filled with hope—a future of success, not of suffering.  Plans for you to live a mighty victorious life.  He wants you to live a “dream come true life”.  Remember all the plans you had for your life that sin has stolen?  It’s time to take them back.  Tapping into God’s love will help you do just that.  God gave you those dreams and His plan is for you to live in them.

God Loves You!

So, what’s your next step?  What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?  I suggest that you go back to place where you used to keep your dreams.  I know Satan and sin has stolen them but God’s been keeping them safe for you.  Then set up some “date nites” with God so one by one you can pull them out, dust them off, and discuss them with God.  Let me give you a helpful tool to use on your dates with God.  While talking with God, sit back, close your eyes and begin to use the power of “daydreams” or “vision casting” & see those dreams!  Keep expanding & developing them, God will help you.  If you need some help getting started simply contact me via this website and I’ll help you.

You will then begin to see just how valuable you are to God and how much he loves you and how powerful He made you.  His love will begin to transform you into the person you previously only dreamt about.  God needs you to help Him save other people.  Haven’t you ever noticed that each of our dreams and desires solves a problem on the earth?

God Loves You!

I know your dreams are big, too big for you alone, but you are not doing this by yourself.  Matthew 19:26 (msg); Jesus looked hard at them and said, “No chance at all if you think you can pull it off yourself. Every chance in the world if you trust God to do it.” so why not find out for yourself just how many of your dreams you and God can make come true.  The bible says in Romans 8:35-39 (msg);  So, what do you think? With God on our side like this, how can we lose? If God didn’t hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn’t gladly and freely do for us? And who would dare tangle with God by messing with one of God’s chosen? Who would dare even to point a finger? The One who died for us—who was raised to life for us!—is in the presence of God at this very moment sticking up for us. Do you think anyone is going to be able to drive a wedge between us and Christ’s love for us? There is no way! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger, not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst sins listed in Scripture: They kill us in cold blood because they hate you. We’re sitting ducks; they pick us off one by one. None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I’m absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.

Get it now, there is nothing that can separate us from God’s love!  You’ve made mistakes and you will make more, I know I will, so let’s stop tripping about it and get moving!

I don’t know about you but the main goal & theme for my life is “Living In My Dreams” and I am using God’s love for me to propel me into the fulfillment of every dream I have, how about you?

God loves you, yes you!  What are you going to do about it?

    This is so on time! I am walking in my vision of my business but I must say that as I am doing this not everyday has been easy but when I get close to God it brings me right back to who I am and whose I am, He said He will never leave me nor forsake me. He promised me this business and that’s all I need is His promise and His love 🙂
