With Us

Today I had a discussion with a friend. He relayed to me a story of a believer that had a close relationship with God, like friends. In the discussion what came out is that God is always with us. He experiences whatever we are experiencing. What this made me think about is that He is with us in good times, but He also is with us when we sin. That was a sobering moment. I thought about a scripture that might confirm this is true.

Deuteronomy 31:6Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

What is interesting here is that Moses had also said that the people would walk away from God when times were good. God would do things to draw them back. But He never will forsake His people. Ever.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King. Great King, send Your kingdom. Give us provision and forgive our sin. Heal us and deliver us. Be with us. In Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) name. Amen.
