These Bible verses for Acceptance tell us what God’s will is for our lives. These verses talk about acceptance of Christ, acceptance of ourselves and our own humanity and acceptance of others around us.
When we accept His will, then we can fully know the peace that passes all understanding and become closer to Him.
Finding Acceptance and love for others can be difficult, but thankfully we have the Bible as a source of guidance and wisdom. These Bible verses about acceptance remind us that God loves all people, no matter who they are or what choices they make.
As followers of Christ, we are called to love and accept others, just as God loves and accepts us for who we are. This doesn’t mean that we have to agree with everything they do, but it does mean that we should show them compassion, kindness, and respect.
As Christians, we need to remember that we are all his children and are in need of God’s grace and mercy. Extending the grace of Jesus to those around us, even when we don’t feel like it, is how we grow in our own faith.

Verses
Romans 15:7
Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.
Are there moments when you find it difficult to accept God? Do you find yourself questioning His path for you?
Whether you’re starting your journey with God or if you’re in the middle of it, it’s important to remember the reasons why we must wholeheartedly accept the Lord and His plan for our lives. When you believe in the Lord, you place all of your faith in Him. For redemption and eternal life, you must put your trust in Him.
Your acceptance of God signifies your acceptance of His gift of eternal life. You must see Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior to reach complete acceptance.
John 6:37
All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out.
Accepting Jesus into your heart simply means that you accept how he lives, loves, and directs our life. By accepting Jesus, we are delivered from an eternity of punishment imposed by being enslaved to sin.
Salvation is a gift from God given to us just because He loves us so much; it is not a result of our good actions or anything remarkable that we have done. We must repent for our sins, acknowledge Jesus as God’s Son and Savior, and accept Him as Lord of our life. We receive salvation and eternal life in doing so.
Psalm 139:14
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
There may be moments when we doubt God’s plan for us. We might think that we’re unhappy with our current path. We must avoid this humanistic thinking which leads us to base our happiness on worldly things.
Our Lord is amazing, for He uses both the good and bad for our good and for His glory.
Accepting God’s plan for our lives amid chaos feels impossible and perhaps even a bit dishonest. But refusing to submit to His will for our lives can also make us unhappy and fruitless.
Peter 3:8
Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble.
Accepting God’s plan entails having complete faith in Him. God’s virtues are known to us. Given that our Lord is all-knowing, we must have faith that He is knowledgeable of the ultimate fruitfulness that will result from our trials.
Trust is free from external factors. It is based on a knowledge of God’s nature.
We must learn to be patient. We must remember that God’s timing is perfect, and we would not want to go outside of His will or timing.
John 1:12
But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
Learning to endure is necessary for accepting God’s plan. The result of acceptance is pure perseverance in the face of overwhelming difficulties. God will give us the strength to persevere if we believe in Him and submit to His will.
Accepting His plan ultimately entails our complete submission to Him. As we surrender our will and acknowledge that the creation does not know more than the Creator, God transforms us.
Oddly, it is when life looks difficult that we frequently get to know God best, even if we might not enjoy the difficult times and wish they had never arrived.

Dear Father,
I pray for your acceptance today and every day. I pray that you make my heart a prayerful heart, able to accept what You choose for me. May everyone I meet experience the acceptance of my prayerful words and actions because my prayer is that they be accepted by You as well.
I pray that I accept you into my life. I pray that I accept the choices and actions of others. I pray that you accept us into Heaven.
I pray that I accept the opportunities You make available to me. Accept the challenges you send my way. Accept your will for me, even when it’s hard to understand or doesn’t seem like the best choice.
Amen.
