Psalm 91: 14
Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me), knowing I will never forsake him, no, never.
I love Psalm 91 in it's entirety and especially love this verse. "I will never forsake him, no, never" is a powerful promise from God.
There are times when life will present circumstances where we may feel forgotten by God. Typically, when life becomes difficult and stressful, it can be tempting to wonder why we are facing difficulty.
I know in my own life, when difficulty arises I will stop and consider where the adversity has originated. It is the result of God desiring more of my attention? Is it the result of sin (consequences). Is it because I have allowed dysfunction / chaos in my life? Is adversity present because there are areas of maturity that I need in order to progress spiritually? Sometimes one aspect can be true and sometimes all aspects can be at work in my life at the same time. Whatever the reason, I dislike pressure from difficult times and will become proactive in getting past the test and enjoying the testimony that will follow.
No matter what may happen in our lives and regardless of the reason, the comfort we have is knowing God promises to never forsake us. He will never leave us - no matter what. He will be with us to provide strength, peace, wisdom, mercy and grace for the challenge, if we allow Him. God is quite intentional in His place in our lives and equally intentional in who we become in the process.
I'm thankful for the presence of God and pray His blessings in your life today.
