Jesus Is Standing With You
And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. – Matthew 28:20
When you serve Christ, you are never alone. Jesus is standing with you. Isn’t that comforting? Isn’t that a great reason and reminder for why we should be totally devoted to Christ? I believe so! But I also believe that sometimes that’s easier said than done, especially when we’re going through a tough and lonely season.
Maybe you are going through dark times right now, and you feel very much alone. Maybe you are alone because of decisions that you have made, or maybe because of decisions someone else has made. Maybe you feel alone because you are walking through a very dark time physically, financially, or relationally.
But trust me, friend. You are not alone, because Jesus is standing with you. Make sure you stand with Him. Be totally devoted to Him. Follow His agenda, not your will, but His will. You will never sense the presence of God standing with you if you are living for your plan and what you want. This is especially true when it contradicts the Word of God.
Many believers want to claim God’s presence; however, they don't feel His presence because they are living out of fellowship with God. Real worship happens when you give everything. That means being aligned with the Word of God. You must be obedient with all your life, all your time, and all your resources. Don’t hold anything back from Jesus.
Is that true for you? Are you aligned with that kind of obedience? If not, I encourage you not to play church. Don’t think you can sing the songs without backing them up with your life. Don’t think that just because you look like a “good Christian” on the outside, everything is just as good on the inside. Our lives are to honor the Lamb! Our goal should be to surrender our hearts to Jesus. May you live in that surrender today!
