You are not Alone
Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
Have you ever got to a junction of life where everything seems so difficult that you begin to ask questions like... Where is God in my suffering?, Has He forgotten about me?, does he even exist to know what I am passing through?
But believe me, God understands every situation of life every man will pass through, He Does know there would be time we will be overwhelmed with fear and uncertainty of what tomorrow will bring. He does know even when we find ourselves in circumstances that negates his promises and will for our life..
The scriptures revealed to us that God is with us in every situations of life no matter how difficult they may be.
Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
God spoke to the whole of israel through prophet Isaiah, giving assurance of being with them in all seasons of life they may go through.
You are not the only one going through the same difficulties, yours may even be less than what others are passing through. You may have even asked God why you are going through so much, despite your faithfulness and heart of service to Him.
One thing you should remember is that, God once created a problem free world, a world without pain and sorrow, but was overturned by the devil. And man's life has been subjected to seasons of life filled with both happiness and sorrow, laughter and weeping, life and death.
But in all, God is with man...
Joseph knew God from the start of his life, he trusted God of His father and never departed from it. He experienced a life of pain, disappointment, rejection, hatred and betrayal from his own family, he was sold into slavery and remained in prison for many years, yet in all, he did not deny God... But when the appointed time came, God brought him out and place him on the throne. God was with him.
Job 1:1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
Job, a man who feared God and eschew evil, blessed all round but suddenly experienced the worst of life any man would ever experienced.. All his investment crashed in a day, all his children died afterwards.. He could have mocked God and cursed Him to his face... But he didn't.. His life later received a total turn around.
You are not alone in your trouble, Christ is with you... For he said... John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
Christ is with you, so also the Holy spirit, the comforter who shall teach you, guide you, and bring peace from the Lord to fill your heart in time of trouble.
Do not give up on God because of the present trouble, hardship, pain and sorrow you are going through. It won't last... The end of it is right at the door.
Don't give up.
God bless you.
