He Is Always With You
Matthew 28:20 (NLT): “Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
Do you feel alone at times? You try to think of people you can talk to, but they aren’t around, or they don’t listen. Maybe you feel that no one else is there to share the burden with you. So you start saying, “God, I only have you to talk to!” but you wonder if He’s really there. You know in your mind that He is there, but you don’t feel His presence in the room. Trust me on this; everyone has that feeling. In fact, the enemy uses it a lot on everyone. The enemy wants to create doubt in your mind.
Jesus lived on this earth for 33 years. He never lied, and every promise that He spoke came true. So, when He said that He is always with us, even to the end of the age, He was telling the truth. Here is something important you must remember. Jesus taught His disciples how to live in faith. He wants us to believe and trust Him through faith, not relying on what we see, hear, feel, or reason.
A great example is an Old Testament story about Elisha and his servant. The Syrian army surrounded the city where Elisha was. Elisha’s servant was terrified, but Elisha was calm. Why? Because he used his faith to know that there was more with him than what he could physically see. So he prayed and asked God to open his servant’s spiritual eyes so he could see what was already there. Angels on horses and chariots of fire surrounded the city and the Syrian army. God is always working on your behalf. God has an army of Angels busily working for you. You may not see it in the natural world, but a supernatural realm is as real as the physical realm where you live.
Remember the story of the donkey that spoke to Balaam? The donkey could see an Angel standing in the path with his sword drawn (Numbers 22:23), but Balaam couldn’t see the Angel at first. Then God opened his spiritual eyes so he could see the Angel. The Angel was already standing there. My point is that just because you don’t see, hear, or feel God’s presence doesn’t mean that He isn’t there. God is sovereign; He makes whatever decisions He chooses, and there are exceptions.
Never give up hope thinking God isn’t there. What impresses God the most is your faith in Him. (Hebrews 11:6). When you can’t see, hear, or feel Him, but you have faith knowing that He will do what He says He will do.
Always remember, if you ever need Him, He’s standing right there!
Be Blessed!
