God Is With You

In the pain and suffering, it is difficult to see the light in the darkness. This world we live in is challenging. Living life can even be a struggle at times. Yet, through it all, there is Jesus. 

He never promised us life would be easy, but He promised us He would always be with us. 

• Isaiah 43:2 says "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the river, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze." 

• Deuteronomy 31:6 says "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you." 

• Psalm 34:19 says "The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all." 

All three of those Bible verses show that God will be with us through anything and everything. He is our protector, our comforter, and our redeemer. He offers us peace of mind, reassurance, and His truths. 

I had a moment with Jesus last night. I was feeding into the enemy's lies. Bawling my eyes out and believing that I was uncared for, Jesus spoke to me. It was in the form of a very strong thought. I had an urge to read Romans 12:12. "Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer" were the words that resonated with my soul. God knew just what I needed to hear. 

The enemy is everywhere. He's in the world, and can even show in our thoughts. I know my God would never tell me that nobody cares about me or that I'm unloved. My God tells me I am deeply loved by Him.

Sometimes the devil's lies can distract us from God's truths. Jesus is the light in the darkness. He is the way. There is joy in the name of Jesus. 

God's presence is real. Whether you can feel Him or not, He is always with us. He loves us so dearly.  He is such a personal God and cares for us with His supernatural abilities. 

No matter how hard life gets, God is with you. He is for you. He loves you. He will never leave you nor forsake you. 

With love,
