God Has Not Forgotten You! – By Iwalola(Lola) Ademodi Oshinowo

God’s love towards us is so intense that the Bible compares it to the love that a mother has for her nursing child.

If you are a child of God and feel your heavenly Father has forsaken you, your feelings are lying to you. Isaiah 40:27 asks, “Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, ‘My way is hidden from the Lord, and my right is disregarded by my God”? There are times when our feelings of despair, depression, and discouragement need to be rebuked by the truth of God’s word.

In fact, we read in Isaiah 49:15-16 (AMP)

✝️ [The Lord answered] “Can a woman forget her nursing child And have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you. “Indeed, I have inscribed [a picture of] you on the palms of My hands…”

This passage is one of the strongest declarations of the loyal love of God in scripture. God will never forget those who TRUST in him.

✝️ Isaiah 49:15 is a remarkable promise: “I will not forget you.” It is first a promise to Israel. It is a promise to the church of Jesus Christ. And it is a promise to everyone who trusts in the Lord. A godly mother does not play favorites. Yet the one who is in need, pain, or trouble gets her special attention. So it is with God. God loves you as if you are the only one to love. You are unforgettable to God. Sin, sickness, sorrow, suffering, or Satan can not cause God to forget you. It is the Father’s unique, unconditional, and unchanging promise: “I will not forget you.” I am a mother to three children, and I can relate to this comparison.

✝️ Lamentations 3:22-23 says, “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”

One of my favorite Christian writers, Charles Spurgeon, wrote
“HE WHO COUNTS THE STARS AND CALLS THEM BY THEIR NAMES IS IN NO DANGER OF FORGETTING HIS OWN CHILDREN”

LET US PRAY
Loving Father, your love for me is truly amazing! You love me with such intensity of a mother’s love toward her nursing child that you can not forget me, in spite of my sins. Thank You for the comforting thoughts that I have in the knowledge that You, the God of the Universe, can not forget me. I love you, Lord! Abide with me today as I strive to please You with my life. In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray. Amen 🙏🏾

Have a blessed day ❤️

Share your love
