This verse is perfect. Yes, it is God’s Word. So of course, it is perfect, but it is a verse that requires no context. It is a simple, deep, and everlasting truth.
“It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” -Deuteronomy 31:8Some of God’s word requires an understanding of the context or the culture. He can always speak to us through His Word, but some passages stand on their own with the strength of His promises sealed in covenants made with man.
It is a verse that sums up the presence of the Holy One in our lives when we seek His face with our whole hearts.
He goes before us. That is protection!
He goes with us. That is companionship!
He will not leave us. That is commitment!
He will not forsake us. That is loyalty!
We need not fear. That is safety!
We need to be discouraged. He is in the depression busting business.
He goes with us. That is companionship!
He will not leave us. That is commitment!
He will not forsake us. That is loyalty!
We need not fear. That is safety!
We need to be discouraged. He is in the depression busting business.
We are loved beyond measure and never alone. He is faithful. He is with us.
Today, I am grateful for companionship.
