“…for God has said, “I will never leave you or abandon you”
Hebrews 13:5
Before we were even conceived, before we were formed in our mother’s womb Jeremiah 1:5 tells us that God knew us. Not only does He know us but Luke 12:27 says that he knows everything about us to the minutest detail. God knows us and He has a purpose & plan for our future that is beyond whatever we can ask or think. But it’s easy for us to forget this and feel lonely and abandoned.
Today’s verse helps us to understand that God has a powerful and unique promise to each and every one of us. That promise is that HE’LL NEVER LEAVE OR ABANDON US. It doesn’t matter how savage or destructive the storm are that batters our lives, God is not separating from us. He is sticking with us and His power will be there to help & deliver us out of every circumstance.
We can tend to forget what we promise but God never forgets His promises. If He says He’ll be with us then that’s where He’ll be. He doesn’t forget us and He doesn’t forget what He said He will do. We need to take strength in this and anchor ourselves into this Truth…. “He remembers me, He’s with me and He’s not leaving me!”
This week no matter how tough life’s storms are let’s remember that God is there with us right now and He has a plan to prosper us into our tomorrow. There’s a testimony that’s coming from the trial we’re passing through so don’t stop and don’t stand still in this season. Grab hold of God’s promise instead and race into the future with Him. You’ll be glad you did.
