Hebrews 13:5(b)... For He himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." The Amplified Bible says God will never abandon us or leave us without support nor leave us helpless. Three times He says 'He will Not!'
If ever we're tempted to think God has gone off somewhere and left us to our own devices it's good then to stop and ask ourselves is there any part of 'never' we're not understanding? When God says never He really means never and if we have any sense of insecurity it will be washed away by that truth. God wants us to be secure in Him and we can be if we'll believe what He says.
God is never taken by surprise by what's happening, or by what we've done or not done. He's never stressed out by any situation because He's the One who holds all of time and space in place. He's never at a loss to know what to do because He already has the answers to our problems before we even get them!
The bottom line of all that is we're not 'Home Alone', not even for a second! We have the Great 'I AM' on our side, the Prince of Peace living in us, equipping us and empowering us by His Holy Spirit wherever we are and wherever we go.
So let's relax and remind ourselves 'God is never going to leave me, so I'm going to be more than OK'.
God really wants us to get a hold of this truth. He's never going to leave us, not ever, not for all eternity because of Jesus. We can be totally secure in Him and it's such a wonderful thing to celebrate this Christmas season don't you think? Thank You Lord.
