He’s Got You
2 Corinthians 1:4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
You got this! A simple three worded phrase that many will use to try and help encourage someone. It’s a phrase Bella will tell me each time I before I go preach. Can I say that God goes above that. It’s not just a you got this, or we got this, but more of a: I got you! Through all the trials and tribulations we may go through, God is always there! No matter how simple or complicated something may seem, God is there to comfort us. However, keep in mind this doesn’t say He will take that tribulation away. It says He will comfort us IN our tribulation. Think of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. God was with them IN the fire! Too often we automatically pray for God to get us out of something instead of relying on His comfort while going through something. You ever look at how a friendship or marriage grows closer when the people go through something together. How stronger a bond will grow! That may just be what the Lord has in mind the next time you go through a trial or tribulation. Just depend on Him and His comfort and see how much closer you might move to Him.
The Bible tells us that He’ll never leave nor forsake us, so no matter what you may be facing today or tomorrow: He’s got you, and He’s got “it” all under control!
God bless you today!
