HE is with us

Joshua 1:9-11  Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”And Joshua commanded the officers of the people, “Pass through the midst of the camp and command the people, ‘Prepare your provisions, for within three days you are to pass over this Jordan to go in to take possession of the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess.'”

Last evening we got the news of a dear family friend who has been diagnosed with cancer. It’s been hard to take it in and we are earnestly praying for God’s miracle in Mrs. Thomas’ life. In times like these we are always challenged in our understanding of God and HIS love. We tend to doubt God and lose our focus from the greatness of God almighty.

God’s Word has never promised us a safe journey, but for sure a safe landing. But the journey is indeed troublesome, full of pain with lots of issues. And when the rubber meets the metal, the real worth is tested. Bible tells us to be courageous and strong, come what may. It is indeed hard but that is all that has been told to us, Worship HIM at all times and expect a miracle from God in times of despair and need.

It is indeed hard for us to go through tough times, but let’s be reminded that our good God is always with us. Let us not give up  but  trust HIM for a great deliverance. Nothing is impossible with God. Trusting God for a miracle in Mrs. Thomas life. Do pray for complete healing with the confidence that HE is with us.
