God is always with us! He will never leave us! (Deuteronomy 31:6)
As we go through trails and temptations in our lives, it is up to us to admit our helplessness and turn to God for strength and perseverance. "Consider it pure joy, my brother's and sister's, whenever you face trials of many kinds because you now that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. (James 1:2-5.) God gives us trials so that we can grow more like Christ, that we will keep our focus on Him, and that we will only relay on Him. We must not rely on ourselves, or let ourselves be tempted by Satan. When we ask God for Help and we truly believe He will help, and not doubt, He give us what we ask for as long as it is in his plan and timing for us. If not, God will change our heart and desire toward His will, we have to just, trust Him, and Him alone.(Psalm 37:4; Romans 8:28; Matthew 6:33; Proverbs 16:9) And not be tempted or enticed by the evil one. Who wants to derail us and put us on a path towards unhappiness, destruction, and even death. James 1:1-18
As David wrote in Psalm 63:7-8, "Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. I cling to you; your right hand uphold me." Because all that we have to face in life are so very hard, the only way to get through life, and not fall apart or do the wrong thing, is to totally depend on Him. The days I don't start off with prayer and in His word are the days I stumble or do the wrong thing. Doing what you want is always easier. But doing what God wants us to do is much harder. We have to rely on his love and strength. This always brings the Joy He only can give, His love, and to remember the difficult times are times to be thankful for. God is with us and is reminding us to depend on Him, cling to Him, and that His love and faithfulness for His children will never change or go away.
I pray that god will hep those of us who love, trust, and believe in Him! Show Himself in a might way and open hearts, eyes, and lives. Always in all things remember to rely on You and Give You all the glory! In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

He is always with you!
My devotion for the day, March 6, 2013, from "Jesus Calling:" Continue on this path with Me, enjoying my Presence even in adversity. I am always before you, as well as alongside you. See Me beckoning to you: Come! Follow Me. The One who goes ahead of you opening up the way, is the same One who stays close and never lets go of your hand. I am not subject to limitation of time or space. I am everywhere at every time, ceaselessly working on your behalf. That is why your best efforts are trusting me and living closer to me.
Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to god through him, because he always lives to intercede for them, Hebrews 7:25;
Trust in the lord and do good; dwell int he land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:3-4
Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalm 23:6
I bought Chris Tomlin's CD, "Burning Lights" two weeks ago. I love #3 song, "Whom Shall I Fear
(God of Angel Armies). Today's devotional reminds me of this song. God has placed this in my
when it is so tough he carries us. Instead of turning to something you know is not what God
wants for you or would approve of. Let him carry you. He has a whole Army of Angels to help
fight against evil. He is everywhere helping us, even if we can't see it at the moment. I could
not get through my days with out Him. Psalm 23"6 tells us he is with us all the days of our lives and that we will be with Him in heaven foreve. If you have not accepted Christ, and realize you need to, stop and pray, asking forgiveness, asking him to take charge of your life and that you will Trust and follow Him. He is there waiting for you. Thank you God for loving us so much, you will carry us
through our trials For dieing on the cross for all of us, to cleans us from our sins so that we can be with you all of our days on earth and in heavern. We all need you, help us all to find you and to trust and follow you, keep the evil one away from your children. Hold us and carry us when we can't walk, when we can't get out of bed and face the new day. I prase you for who you are and for who you are guiding and modling us all to be. In Jesus name, amen
