Have you experienced being fatherless or abandoned like and orphan or widow? It’s heart wrenching! There is intense loneliness and it’s easy to be overwhelmed. But God is close to these - closer than they know or believe - and He promises to set them back up in a family. Because he created us to be in community, to live among loved ones is God’s design! It’s also a blessing. So many people, even Christians, are choosing to be isolated these days. It’s not good and it sets the

When we don’t understand When evil is all around When we pray for healing and the person dies When we are struggling with _______ (fill in the blank) When we feel afraid When the darkness seems to be closing in When it looks like the devil is winning When people are deceived When we feel alone When we don’t think we can take one more step God is still WITH YOU! He is still in control and doing what is best and reigning and ruling from His throne. He can see and understand EVE

So many people are struggling with anxiety today- maybe even you. Today I pray this for everyone who is facing this battle, I know that our God will come to rescue them and bring them His perfect peace, healing and wholeness. “Nothing is too difficult for Him!” (Jeremiah 32:17) The Lord wants to give us this incredible peace and power - seek Him and believe! He will never leave you on your own - He is with you always! #walkinthespirit #donotbeanxious #trustinthelord #pray #th

I don’t think we can really grasp the concept of never failing. Ever. God’s perfect understanding of everything and everyone is so much bigger than our comprehension, and yet we still try. Why do we get upset when people (or ourselves) fail though? That is our humanity - and we have to be careful not to put too many expectations on people and put them in God instead. He is the faithful One, He is merciful and He is with us! “The Lord is righteous in her midst, He will do no

We all need an Advocate! Someone who will stand up for us publicly and not leave our side. The Greek word actually used here is Paraclete which means even more than that - it means that He will have our back and be our helper too. Our Father and Jesus wanted us to have this incredible gift! It is so amazing that we have the Holy Spirit with us always and that He is always ready to help. We need to learn how to walk in step with Him! The power is there, God IS with us, but are

I’ve heard some of these lies and even believed them for a while in my life. When we are anxious or fearful, we are in the devil’s domain - and he lies and lies and lies to us. He wants us to believe the lies and fall deeply into his darkness, but he will settle for just making you doubt God and your faith. I remember many times, I would cry out because I felt “less than” and like I wasn’t good enough to be loved and treated well. I remember times when I felt so alone that th

What does God say about you? Here is a snippet of the many things He says: You’re His beloved, His child. You’re forgiven. You’re more than a conqueror. You’re a mighty Warrior. You’re chosen. You were created on purpose for a purpose. You’re gifted. You’re called. You’re not alone. Ever. #walkinthespirit #neveralone #calledandchosen #createdonpurposeforapurpose #forgiven #beloved #shalom #yourjourneytobeingwhole #dailydevotional

I have no idea how many times this has been true for me - but I AM A WITNESS! I have faced so many situations and trials wondering how I could possible get through - but the Lord was right beside me every single time. Sometimes He was holding me up and sometimes He was just holding me - but He never left me on my own, even when I deserved it. God is faithful! No matter what, I can do whatever is necessary through Christ who gives me the strength. #godisfaithful #neveralone #t

God is not fickle. He does not forget about you and your prayers, even when it seems like He isn’t listening. He is always listening, even when He is doing it quietly… Think about that lonely ache you have when you feel like no one is listening and look around. I bet there is someone else feeling lonely or excluded - maybe even mourning and isolated. Give them the beautiful gift of being present and listening. Reflect the light and love of Christ to them. #saltandlight #wwjd

This is our faith. When we don’t understand, When we feel lost and alone, When we don’t know what to do next, When we don’t know which path to choose, When all seems lost, God will make a way! He has always been, is now and always will be FAITHFUL. He is always with us and will never leave or grow weary. Put your faith in the One who saved you and loves you completely - let the Lord heal your broken places and lead you on the way! #yourjourneytobeingwhole #shalom #dailydevoti

I get so much comfort from this simple verse. I have walked some long stretches of my life alone, but not really. There were many years when I felt so so lonely for companionship that I ached. But the Lord was with me and helped me to walk in companionship with Him. It took some time for me to “feel” like I wasn’t alone, but then I never was again! I didn’t just read about God being my perfect Father or my friend, or believe it in theory, it was and is my reality. Now, I’m bl

Have you ever felt like the unloved one? Most of us can think of a time that we felt that way - rejected, neglected, abandoned, forgotten… It really hurts when you feel that way, and when you are going through it, it’s easy to spiral into darkness and forget that you’re not alone! Your Father, your friend and brother, Jesus and your Helper Holy Spirit are with you! They feel what you’re feeling and are working to help you ALWAYS. You are God’s believed - always look to Him wh

No matter how you feel, You are not alone and the battle isn’t lost. This means that: No matter how hopeless No matter how dark No matter how frustrating No matter if it seems the enemy is winning No matter if you don’t know what to do No matter if you messed everything up There is absolutely nothing that can separate you from God and His love for you. Turn your face to Him and surrender! He’s got you and He never loses!! #turnyoureyesuponjesus #godisfaithful #neveralone #god

Faith isn’t grown and developed when everything is going well and life is good. It comes from walking (or crawling) through the hard times and the battles, trusting God for every step and every decision - setting your face against the circumstances and knowing that God is with you and that He is still good. “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”” ‭‭Joh

This is your friendly reminder that you’re not alone and you’re not on your own. You are a child of the Most High God who gives you strength! He gives you peace when you’re anxious, endurance when you think you can’t go on, and courage when you’re afraid. God isn’t telling you to do things on your own - He is asking you to do them with Him. You are called and chosen, but never to be alone! #neveralone #godiswithyou #childofgod #goodgoodfather #donotbeafraid #shalom #yourjour

We all those days. When we feel like we’re pushing a car uphill - like our efforts are futile and we’re all alone… even if surrounded by people. But that isn’t the reality. It isn’t true. The truth is what God says, not what we think! The reality isn’t just our circumstances, it’s what God is doing to work them for His good plans for us. The Lord Himself is with you. He is on your side and He loves you. He has not abandoned you - you are not alone. #thelordiswithyou #neveralo

It’s easy to feel like you’re alone. Even if you’re surrounded by people, even if you’re married and even if there’s a smile on your face. I’ve been there - in fact I was there a lot until a @jason_upton song changed it all for me. “You’re Not Alone” was the song and I had a recording of it from one of his concerts almost 20 years ago. God flooded in and showed me that not only am I not alone, but He is with me ALWAYS. He is always real and present and He always will be. Ther

What are you pursuing that is bigger than you? Bigger than your plans and more than you can accomplish in the natural? When God is in it, it is bigger than you are and beyond what you can do on your own. It’s like you’re just along for the ride - and yet, God wouldn’t do it without you… how many times have you stopped because you knew you couldn’t do it - or because you knew the odds were against you and quitting was easier than getting hurt or let down? Or because hoping for

The Lord is with YOU. You don’t have to face anything in this world alone - not even the thoughts that go through your mind that you think no one can hear but you. God hears. The Holy Spirit is with you. They don’t judge you for those thoughts, they want to fight WITH you. Too many times, we expect the Lord to fight for us without our help. Truly, He doesn’t need our help, but He does wait for us to take action first because we are free to choose whether to fight, or not. If

Do ever feel like you’re all alone? I’ve gone through times like that…when I felt completely isolated, unnoticed, and abandoned. But I wasn’t. Those feeling were real, but they weren’t true. I needed to learn the difference - what about you? What I feel can be based on misperceptions and lies. This is the devil’s playground. I have to be able to pull back enough to apply God’s word to every situation and circumstance to discern what is true. And, the truth is God is with me.
