Today's Reading: Genesis 28
Today's verse is part of a promise made by God to Jacob as he sets out on a journey to find a wife. It is God's reminder that He is always with us, guiding and protecting us on our journey, whatever that may be. It highlights the idea that God is always present, and that He will never leave us or forsake us, which is a great comfort and reassurance. It also reminds us that God is faithful to his promises and He will fulfill them. He will always finish what He has started!
We are not alone in our journey! We can trust in God's presence and protection wherever we go. So, trust in God's faithfulness to fulfill His promises to you, even when things may be difficult or uncertain. Remind yourself that God is with you and will guide you, and that He will bring you safely to the place He has promised us.
Additionally, this verse can remind us to stay obedient to God's plan for our lives, and to seek to honor Him in all that we do. God's presence and protection are not only for our physical safety, but also for our spiritual well-being. By obeying God, we can trust that He will guide us and protect us on the path He has for us.
Jesus confirms God's promise when He teaches that He is always with his followers, and that He will guide and protect them. In Matthew 28:20 Jesus said, "I am with you always, even to the end of the age." This passage reinforces the idea that God's presence and protection are always with us, no matter the circumstances.
God will not leave you until He has done all that He promised you! "And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." Philippians 1:6
