Joshua 1:9 “This is my command-be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. The LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”
No matter where you find yourself today, God is there. Are you on top of the mountain, celebrating a victory? Are you in the valley facing trials? Are you on the road to recovery after a struggle? No matter where you find yourself, God is there.
Unlike humans, God cannot and will not break a promise. He is a promise keeper and His Word is filled with them. He says in Joel 2:25 “The LORD says, ‘I will give you back what you lost to the swarming locusts, the hopping locusts, the stripping locusts, and the cutting locusts….” Psalm 147:3 “He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds.” Genesis 28:15 “What’s more, I am with you and I will protect you wherever you go. One day I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have finished giving you everything I have promised you.” So, no matter where you find yourself today, you can trust in the One who created you, loves you without limit, and died to save you.
Gracious, omniscient Father, today I choose to focus on the blessings you promise. Father, I thank you for always being with me, guiding me, loving me, and rescuing me. Father, I know that I am where I am today because of You. You have been my strength, guide, and encourager. Thank you for always being right where I need you. Help me to rest in You today and everyday. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
