It's You again God,

When new or difficult situations arise, it's so good to know that You are with me and in fact You go before me just as You did with Moses and Joshua. Moses was able to encourage Joshua with these words because he had experienced Your presence in a very real way:

"The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.""
‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭31:8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

These words were so important that the writer of Hebrews quotes them:

"Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
"So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?""
Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13:5-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Lord help me to imitate the faith of these great leaders. So much time has passed by since they lived but You are still the same and I can trust You to never leave me or forsake me! I am so blessed to be able to say that You are my helper, I will not be afraid!

In Jesus' Name,

Amen.
