#1,084: God Cares About the Lonely

The 5 Minute Discipleship Podcast

I want to assure you today that no matter what you are experiencing or what you feel, God’s face is turned towards you. He does know what you feel and He cares.

Main Points:

1. Perhaps you feel down today, thinking all your hope is gone, that even God has abandoned you. Yes, you may feel those things, but that doesn’t mean your feelings are true. The God of Heaven knows what you are feeling. He understands the pressure you are feeling. Most of all, He is there. He cares and He is with you.
2. In your loneliness, stand on this great truth from Scripture. God is with you. He has promised to always be with you.
3. What is it that lifts our spirits when we are lonely? What encourages our hearts? I believe the answer is found in worship. When we worship Jesus we experience a change in perspective. Our focus is no longer on our loneliness, the absence of friends and family, and what we do not have. Our focus now is solely upon Jesus, his comforting presence, his love for us, and his promise to always be with us.

Today’s Scripture Verses:

Genesis 2:18 - “The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone.”

Proverbs 18:24 - “There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.”
