God Loves Me, Even in My Deadness

When a person accepts Christ, we communicate how much God loves them as they enter in. We may even tell them that God loves them right where they are at. But after that, so many believers lose sight of the vast love.
Did God's love for you vanish or lessen, once you became a believer?
I know for me, I knew in my mind that God loved me, but I didn't experience that in my heart in an ongoing basis. Most of my life, I felt that God just tolerated me, more than loved me. Until I learned that God loved me as my Father, even in my deadness and struggles.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2:4-6 (NKJV)
He loved me before He raised me . . . He did not love me when I accepted Jesus. He loved me even before I made that decision. Maybe you are struggling with some dead areas of sin and trespass now.
Are you still aware that His great love is there for you? Isn’t it so easy to think, “He loved me when I was a sinner and received me in. But that’s my one shot. If I screw up, that love may not be there.”
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 (NKJV)

I have decided to stop listening to sermons on the internet because listening to different people has brought all this performance. I took a decision that am going to 1.Read my bible and trust how the Holy spirit interprets the scripture for me, 2. Listen to mark only on the internet as my Christian physiologist, 3. Going to my church the new precher teaches grace. Until the Holy spirit says am ready to listen to sermons on the internet ❤. Thank you very much Mark.

I always ask where is God when I sin , if he actually left and how to regain his presence or love, I still don’t understand how in churches don’t teach stuff like this and only give more condemnation.

Thank you for this life changing teaching Mark. As you were talking about our Father's love for us at all times, no matter what we do or don't do. And that He even likes and accepts. I thought of the first few verses in Ephesians where Paul writes about how God took pleasure in us while saving us through Christ Jesus. Your teaching about our Father's love, and how it permeates all aspects of our being has made my journey much more enjoyable! Thank you!

I find much help in your videos. I think your honesty is great. I recognize your saying true, now I hope I can again enjoy my loveability again as I did in my early years and later at some points for shorter periods in my life. Now I miss it for a long time. I need it very much. Since I miss it I’m not nice to others either. I feel often a sin to be happy and love myself… or simply to spend time with myself. But I recently feel some seed of confidence to say no to this as an unchangeable truth to this in my life. I experienced too much wrong as a fruit of it, maybe this is why I start to not believe to this lie.

Thank you for such good word from God. I'm trying to live a Godly life. My way didnot work. But why is it that some people who think they know more about God then you do. Try to make you feel condemned if you make a mistake. Especially, if you have ask God for forgiveness and His Grace on your life. They are quickly to tell you, "You are not living right" even if it was just a bad thought about somebody? I agree eith you. God's love is more important and it is always there for all of us! Thank you🌷

I struggle with receiving and accepting and the next step. It is like I'm just taking some and using others or not taking it at all. And the thought gifts are given but you need to use it correctly or it doesn't work or you lose it. Its usually targeted God has forgiven your past but what if it's still current state too.

@glendagajsek-shears3890 Жыл бұрын

I have come to realise how it is needed a deeper work of heart soul and spirit healing... I ask cry get frustrated because I cannot humble myself and become so stubborn trouble with listening or being teachable because being on guarding or seeing how easy the devil can trick us etc and I also may twist the truth 😔 and even attack or judge others too. Know I and we all got issues with this battle or who's "side" we are on.

I disagree somewhat that we can’t expect people to love us. Some people I would say. We can expect family to. Can’t make them do it though. The belief we shouldn’t expect love shuts us down to where we don’t think about receiving love. Enjoying your videos.

I hate the thought how words have power even when saying bad or negative but wish they didn't have power and only wishing that the good positive words only did bring life to everyone. And do feel how and like a broken record in this state plus how much negative words sinful acts and dead words and rage that have Hammered my mind because I stopped "trying" and really wanted to slow down and always feel the disconnect and seeing my actions towards others... and don't but do at the same time want to relate. I do see how kind He has been but I still feel and see how I'm abusing it, the grace etc. And towards what God has created.

I have a problem with just being angry with God, mad at Him. For years I haven't been able to get past being upset with him, what He did to me, I can't seem to get past. I feel it's God's fault for the condition I'm in. Feel like everything bad that's happening to me is because God always punishes me sin but doesn't punish the mean people who have hurt me all my life. I have lived the worst nightmare of a life starting with a bad child hood and never stopped being abused. People are mean and hateful and it's rare if Im not afraid of some one. I have allot of disabilities including learning disability so no matter what I was dealt a very bad hand and have never stood a chance in life and than God showed up in my life and I was a new person, I wasn't afraid I was full of Love just like a little child literally, God used me to show a bunch of very mean elderly people how to love but these people plotted against me in secret and would find ways to attack me, then they found the perfect way to get me I lost my children in my old life, and God made my calling at this congregation to teach the children, I brought them all into relationship with the Lord not law, but the spirit taught them right from wrong but allot of Love and these people hated me for it, they wanted me to teach the children The Ten Commandments and the law, they ended up taking the children from me by believing lies that were set traps for me, there's no such thing as a pit to the Palace, there's only the pit. At the same time that these people were coming against me my husband was beating me at home for 7 years and I finally broke to the point where I became angry at God and all I could believe was God hated me. Why would God take someone like me who has been abused her whole life and use them in these places and allow all this horrible hurt pain, and come to them and tell them I love you, why would a good god a God that loves you, a father, to allow his own people to destroy you. I used to hold on to the fact that God would recompense and take me from the pit to the palace but God never saved me, there was no palace. I no longer go to that congregation and my husband no longer beats me. After I broke, my husband stop beating me, but it was to late, in my eyes I lost my salvation and God never Loved me.

Amy, I pray you're doing ok. I pray your heart has softened, forgiveness has begun, and you're continuously healing. Your life has definitely had its challenges. I hope you've found strength in the midst of it all. Sometimes we don't understand why God allows heartache, mistreatment, and pain. I don't believe that it's necessarily what God wants for us be He allows people to be themselves and do whatever they choose. I believe it was the people, not God who chose to cause you harm. We ALL have some type of disability or disfunction in our lives. God doesn't promise that to give us a happy life but that He'll be with us in the ups & downs. In every moment of our lives we can find God and learn of Him in a different way. We also have to be careful not to blame God for unwise decisions we've made. God will guide us if we acknowledge Him and paintiently wait for Him. God isn't in every decision we make so we must deal with the end result. Despite of ANYTHING you may have done or said, God is still there waiting for his Prodigal daughter to return. Make a choice to forgive God, forgive those who have hurt you, and forgive yourself for not always making the best decision. Your only human. Amy, everyday is a new day. You don't have to carry yesterday's pain into today. I encourage you to seek counseling, we all need someone to confide in. Also, start going to the park or take a walk in nature and talk to God at least 3 times a week. Be open and honest with God. He already knows what you're feeling and thinking so talk to him about it. Lastly, listen to some motivational speeches on KZfaq, start consuming a healthier lifestyle in what u eat and exercise. Sometimes we need a spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical makeover. You have the power to change your life. You must believe in yourself and be patient with yourself. You can do it. You have to keep fighting Amy. One day God will use your struggles to be a blessing to others. God Is With You! God Is For You! He will never abandon You. Talk to Him daily. Be patient. Make the positive changes I've mentioned. Surround yourself with positive people, positive music, positive quotes, and read the book of Psalm. I pray for healing and renewal in your life. You can make it! Love you Honey.

Regardless of whether He loves me, I don't love Him. Why? Because He's been a liar from the beginning. I don't like lying in ANY form. "Ask what you will..."--Jesus Christ lying to all of humanity. "I come quickly."--God the Father lying to all of humanity.

Hello Custer244. I hope this message finds you doing well. According to what you've written, sounds like you've experienced some disappointment in your life. I'm guessing God didn't act, answer, or do what you wanted Him to do within your timeframes. I totally understand how that can be frustrating. I've been walking with God for a long time. I've learned to talk to God honestly about what I need or want. I can tell him how or when He should act on behalf. But what I've learned to be best is to release that concern to God and allow Him to freely act how and when He wants. Like Jesus, when we pray, we must end with "not my will but your will be done." Not everything we want is God's will for us. His timing usually isn't the same as ours. Although it's frustrating, God usually makes us wait for various reasons. He wants to grow patience within us. He wants to strengthen our faith. He wants us to completely depend on Him and His plan. He doesn't want us to see Him as Santa Claus or a Genie. He wants us to learn how to live a Surrendered life to Him. Sometimes God does say No and sometimes He says Not yet. All we're supposed to do is give our request to God and go on with our lives. Let Him move how and when He's ready. Sometimes He doesn't move but instead give you a different desire. God really does know best even when we don't agree with it. Sometimes I have to ask God to make His decision well with my soul because I may not like it. It may take some time but eventually I may be able to see how God's decision was best. God is trustworthy. It takes time to build strong faith. Faith comes from hearing/reading His Word and listening to other belivers' testimony. I pray you reconsider how you view God. Take off some of the expectations you have of Him because they may cause you to become upset. God is who He is. He doesn't change based on our expectations. Try releasing your thoughts, concerns, and prayers to Him. Remember to end with... God do as You see fit, in Your time and in Your way. Not my will but Your will be done. I hope this message helps you my Friend. I wish you the best.
