Christ is with you and for you and in you

Do you believe Christ is with you and for you and in you?

These are promises in God’s Word.

But if I’m honest, there are times that believing any one of them is not easy for me. Like when hardships and difficult situations come my way.

And I’ve learned it is not “if” but “when” life turns topsy-turvy without any warning. 

Still, these promises never change and always remain true.

So let’s look at what the Bible says.

Christ is with you.

Even though it’s not easy to admit out loud, sometimes it doesn’t seem like Christ is really with me. I may feel alone when I’m by myself or when loved ones are around.

Friend, this is a lie from the enemy of our souls. Because we belong to Christ.

The Lord promises He is with us. And it all started with prophecy that the virgin would bear a child, Immanuel, which means “God is with us.” (Isaiah 7:14) 

“I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5 (ESV)

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 (ESV)

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” Psalm 23:4 (ESV)

“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 (ESV)

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.” Isaiah 43:1b-2 (ESV)

And at the great commission, “And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20b (ESV)
