                       He Will Never Forsake Us!

Have I not given My resurrected Son to you so that you would know I am the
God that has no beginning and no end? Know therefore, I will always be with
you for all eternity. Lay aside your fears, cast down your doubts and remove
all unbelief for I am the God who is with you always.

Have I not sent the Truth, the Way and the Life to declare and establish
that you would see Me because you believed the Truth dwelt among you and
received Him? As He was among you, so shall I be with you always. For there
shall never be a minute, an hour or day that I am not with you.

I am as close as the mention of My name. At times, I may be distant from
you but I am never far away. As you draw close to Me, I have promised to
draw close to you. When I am hiding from you, lift up your eyes and you will
see My favor, My grace and My anointing upon you.

When you run away from Me, I'll always find you because you are precious
and I don't ever want to lose you; I'll find you and also protect you from
harm until you return to Me because you are under My wing.

Am I not a merciful God who plucked you out of the darkness and brought you
into My marvelous light, delivering you from deserved wrath and sin through
salvation? Did I not send My incarnate Son for your atonement and My Spirit
for your sanctification? After doing all of this, and so much more, how
could you ever think that I would ever leave you or forsake you?

My grace, mercy and peace are with you because the truth abides in you and
will remain. Rise up, mount up, gird up, cheer up and look up for I have
called you out for a purpose and given you a destiny, and filled you with My
Spirit and My power to operate in your calling and finish the race.

I have birthed you into righteousness and commissioned you to go into all
the nations and preach the word in season and out of season. I have put My
Spirit in you for building up, lifting up and comforting with the truth of
the word that abides in you. Yet, the truth will set them free only if they
hear it!

I will open up ears to hear, doors for you to pass through and minds to
receive the words that I will speak through you. I’ll always be with you My
good and faithful servant for I've entrusted you with declaring the truth of
the Word made manifest through you as My walking Epistles.
