We sometimes have a hard time loving ourselves, which can make it difficult to love others and can even cause us to struggle with receiving love. Father desires to wash us and cleanse us of self-rejection, delivering us out of the darkness so that we can receive all of His love. God wants to remove the stains of self-rejection and past hurts by the blood of Jesus, and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit. Father longs to bring us into His marvelous Light, to experience His acceptance.

“He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love”. Ephesians 1:4

The primary way that He causes us to grow in His love is by cherishing us. God wants us to know that He desires us, He cherishes us, and He loves us unconditionally. Father wants us free to both receive and give love.

Break off the spirit of self-rejection!

Jesus wants you to get into agreement with Him that you are beautiful: beautiful in God and beautiful to God. Father yearns for you to know that you are lovelier than the most magnificent flower or the most delicate butterfly. That you are more amazing than a hundred roaring lions, more majestic than a soaring eagle – because you are the crown of God’s creation; the “Apple of His eye.”

“God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” Genesis 1:27

God created you in His own image! Jesus lives in you! The very Spirit of God resides in you! You are wholly desirable to God. He sees Himself in you. Right now, you need to cast-o self-rejection and say: “Yes Father, You desire me, You love me, and You accept me just as I am. I am beautiful to You.” Beloved, you are desirable to God,you are lovely to God, and you are beautiful to God. From the top of your head to the bottom of your feet, you are special to Him (Song of Songs 7:1-10). God loves you and He wants you to overcome self-rejection by embracing how beautiful you are to Him, and how much He desires you. His love for you is a flame of fire. Father wants
to consume you with His love; setting you free to love yourself, to love others, and to be able to fully receive all His love.

“For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things pre ent, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39
