GOD WITH YOU
GOD WITH YOU
Esther 8:9-17
Devotional:- “The Jews had light and gladness, joy and honor” (v.16) NKJV
There is nothing as beautiful as when God is with a man. All things will just be working wonderfully for him. Such a person enjoys God’s favour and mercy. He enjoys the grace of God. And as a result of grace, God preserves him from all evil and prospers his endeavour. The enemy of such a person will always be put to shame, and because of God’s presence with him, He will always be filled with testimonies of joy. Do you know that this is God’s plan for your life because the Lord is with you? (Isaiah 43:2).
Though the Jews were in a land of slavery, the presence of the Lord was with them. And by this, they were preserved and protected. At one time, a man rose against the Jews to destroy them, but God fought for them (Romans 8:31). A letter went out from the King for all the Jews to be destroyed, but God turned it around in their favour. So they were victorious, and they experienced the time of joy before the Lord.
Friend, you also need to know that God is with you. Whoever is against you is in trouble (Romans 8:31). In every battle you face, there shall be victory for you. Your enemy will be filled with sorrow and shame because everywhere you turn, there shall be joy, gladness and honour. You just need to abide in Christ and arise against whatever is against you with your confidence in God’s presence. Then you will always enjoy the fullness of blessings and victory that His presence brings.
Prayer: Lord, let the joy of your presence always be with me.
“WHEN GOD IS WITH YOU, THE END OF YOUR STORY WILL ALWAYS BE JOY”
