The Lord will never leave nor forsake me!

In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory. - Ephesians 1:13-14

When Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "It is finished!", He has borne all our punishments for sins on His own body. In one instance, the divine exchange has taken place: His righteousness for our sin. A child of God has his or her sins totally forgiven at the cross because of what Jesus has accomplished.

We are cleansed so clean within that the Holy Spirit is able to indwell in us forever or till the coming of Lord Jesus. It is like an official receipt that all our sins are forgiven. Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." - Hebrews 13:5. Jesus Himself has declared He will never leave nor forsake us.

Know this truth and cultivate His presence within and without. Be conscious of His divine intervention at every crucial junction of our lives. Be aware of what the Lord is doing behind the scene to turn things around for our good. For this is one promise which the Lord will carry out.

When things of the world seem to be heading southwards, look to Christ for He is the Answer to our every need and want. On the day of His ascension, He bequeathed His shalom peace to His people. This peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guide our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Even in the midst of a perfect storm, Jesus was simply sleeping at the stern of the boat. The disciples were fearing for their lives when they cried out to the Lord that He didn't care. The Lord awoke to calm the boisterous sea and to calm their hearts. Isn't it interesting that Jesus was sleeping at the stern of the boat they were on. Jesus is always working things, behind the scene, out for our good even when He seems to be doing nothing at all. Though He may seem to be late at times, His timings are always perfect!

Rest in Jesus and His finished work at the cross. He has already provided for our every need and want. He has blessed us with His riches. He has blessed us with His health. He has given us His peace. Just be aware the good Lord is there with us, all the times. Hallelujah!
