God Is With You Through The Storm

by Hazel Straub

Many times, when we are in a narrow tight place, we cry out for rescuing from our situation. We think, “If only God would quickly change our circumstances, everything would be fine.” Instead, God does not deliver us out of our difficulty but walks with us, through our predicament.

God is always with us, so we will not fear. It is on the journey with him, that our character is refined, we are humbled and become more like Christ. Also, hardship teaches us to focus on Yahweh, who is present with us, not on the water that seeks to overwhelm us or the flames that leap at us. He has promised that we will not drown nor will the fire burn or scorch us. He is our help and strength, in the midst of trials. He will make us a powerful testimony of overcoming, with the help of Yahweh God, to many who do not know him yet.

Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. (Isaiah 43:1(b)-3(a) NIV)

  5. These words from the book of Isaiah reminds me of a song called I Am by Crowder, I am holding on to you, I am holding on to you,, in the middle of a storm I am holding on to I Am, and through those difficult days I too am holding onto I AM

  9. I find that it is in the difficult times that I learn to dwell and abide in Him. Those times are amazing for knowing how much He loves and cares for me.

  10. As I pass through the deepened waters stretched out before me, I will cross safely to the far side, for I am comforted in knowing our precious Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, is with me always.

    May our Lord bless you and keep you in His mercy and Grace.
