Joyce Meyer (August 22, 2025) Daily Devotional: Never Forsaken.
The chief priests accused him of many things. Mark 15:3 (NIV)
Before Jesus went to the cross, people made many false accusations against Him. He stood strong in the face of the unfair charges, refusing to answer His accusers.
Perhaps you have experienced being falsely accused. Maybe you are wondering right now if God has forsaken you or left you alone in a certain situation. The answer is no! God did not forsake Jesus, and He has not forsaken or abandoned you today. In fact, He is always close to you, and He always will be. Jesus knows exactly how it feels to suffer, and He can relate to your pain.
Just as God had a plan for Jesus to be gloriously resurrected after His experience on the cross, He has a great plan for you too. On the other side of your struggle, you will be stronger than ever before. He is with you, and He loves you more than you realize.
Prayer of the Day: Father, help me to remember that You never leave me. You are always with me. I never have to go through a difficult time alone. In Jesus’ name, amen.
