Morning by Morning, October 23 - My God is With Me and My God is For Me!
Good morning, Lord Jesus. I speak out Your name and listen for Your voice. ...
"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? ... Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ... Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, no height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord!" (Romans 8:31-39 NKJV)
You are with me. And You're always for me. You're fighting for me in ways I don't always see, walking with me in ways I don't always feel, leading me in ways I don't always know -- at least not at the time. But when I look back, I see Your steps and I see Your hand -- at work to bring my walk into line with Your will. And Your will for me, Your plans for me, they are always for my good, never for my harm, lining up my heart with Your hope and my faith with Your future that You're always working together for me because I love and I'm called according to Your purpose (Jeremiah 29:11; Romans 8:28).
So I will trust You. I will seek to follow You -- to "follow in (Your) steps" and to walk in Your ways (1 Peter 2:21). There's no temptation I'll face today, no challenge I'll encounter today, no step I'll take today that You've not already faced and overcome before me and that You're not also facing and overcoming with me. "This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for He faced all of the same testings we do, yet He did not sin" (Hebrews 4:15 NLT).
If God is with me, who can be against me? "This I know, that God is for me. In God, whose word I praise, in the Lord, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid. What can a mere mortal do to me? ... For You have delivered my soul from death, and my feet from falling, so that I may walk before God in the light of life!" (Psalm 56:9-13) In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
