It is good to know that the Lord is always with us. There is no place we can go that He is not there. No trouble that we endure ourselves that God is not right there by our side. What a blessing it is to know that God is with us every step of the way. We need not fear when troubles come our way, even when the enemy comes against us. We are not alone, as God is right by our side. We have a God who stands with us to give us the strength we need, helping us when we need help, guiding us in our journey, forgiving us when we sin, and renewing us when our hearts are heavy. All we can say is, “Wow! What a mighty God we serve!”

“For I hold you by your right hand— I, the LORD you God.  And I say to you, ‘Don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.“

Here, in these moving and compelling words, we see the Lord is making His presence felt. He is there to help Israel and is there to guide them. They are not alone, and they are to take courage. God is present for us, as well. When we think of what the Lord has done it gives us strength to keep going. No one has the power but God, so take courage today that God is right there.
