Father God has promised that He will never leave you or forsake you.

He has not abandoned you.

His perfect love casts out all fear.

Rest in His love. Receive from your heavenly Father all the father’s blessing that you craved from your earthly father.

Be blessed with life-changing encounters with the Father heart of God. Be blessed to receive His perfect healing that can make you whole. Allow Him to bring healing, recovery, and restoration of your broken trust. Your Father’s best healing work restores your heart and soul according to His design that He had for you before He laid the foundations of the world. As you drink in your Father’s love, He will re-innocence you, restoring your childlike faith and trust.

Respond this way:
God, I choose to trust you today. I choose to believe Your heart toward me is kind, good, loving, approachable, and accepting. I choose to bind my will to Your will. I bind my mind to the mind of Christ. I bind my emotions to the Holy Spirit for healing and alignment.

Thank You for wanting to be my Father, not my taskmaster or my boss. You are indeed loving Master, Sovereign, Judge, King, and so much more in Your universe. How majestic is Your name in all the earth (Psalm 8). I am in awe of all You are, but You are first of all my “Abba, Papa.”

Thank You that You created me to be loved as Your child and for me to love You. It’s that simple. You like me and You like having me around. Thank You that the greatest blessing is nearness to You, and You want me near You. Thank You for inviting me to draw near to You so that I may experience joy and peace in Your presence. Thank You for Your promise to hold me in Your everlasting loving arms.

I accept Your invitation to come closer to Your Father heart.

God’s Wings of Healing

thoughts by Sylvia Gunter Thoughts by Women


The grace of God is amazing. His pursuit of us brings awe and wonder as we discover more about the depth of His love for His people. When we fail to trust Him, when we follow Him from afar, when we grieve His heart through disobedience, or when our hearts grow cold, God, our Father, does not give up on us. He convicts us, chastens us, calls to us, comes to us, and seeks to bring us back to Himself.

There is an ache that is carried in the heart of every child of God whose life has gone adrift. There is no joy or peace to be found when we step away from the light and walk into the darkness, or when we say “yes” to what pleases us and say “no” to what pleases the Lord.

One of the great sounds of God’s mercy to the ears of a hurting heart is His call to “return.” Even in the times when we have grieved Him most, God comes to us…He runs to heal the brokenhearted.

The desire of the Lord is to comfort His people who are in sorrow because of their sin. “Comfort, yes, comfort My people.” declares the Lord through the prophet Isaiah. Through the prophet Hosea, God calls out to His hurting people, “Return to Me.” Hosea also reminds us that, “In Him alone do the orphans find mercy.”

Are you hurting? Is your heart in need of healing? Do you need God’s comfort, His hope, and His restoration? Do you need to return to your Father’s arms?

Hear what the Lord is saying to you through the voice of His prophet Hosea…

My love for you knows no bounds…

I will be to you like the refreshing dew from heaven.

You will again blossom like the lily, you will send roots deep into the soil …your branches will spread out like beautiful olive trees, you will flourish and be as fragrant as the cedars of Lebanon.

You will live under the covering of My shade.

Your healing and restoration is in Me—I am the One who answers your prayers and cares for you…all your fruitfulness comes from Me. (From Hosea 4)

A Prayer of Returning:

Lord, I hear Your call to return to You. From my desert place I return to the dew of Your refreshment; From my vulnerable place I return to the shelter of Your covering; from my barren place I return to the fruitfulness of Your vine.

Thank You for unending mercies, for loving me without limits, for Your healing presence, for Your caring ways, for Your complete restoration, and for answering my prayer. Amen.
