IMMANUEL: GOD WITH US

Devotion:
Jesus’ abiding
Presence is with us always.
His comfort is ours;

His encouragement
Strengthens in difficulty,
Upholds in weakness.

God promised to us
A Helper Who would remain
With us forever.

The Holy Spirit
Abides in believers’ lives –
The Lord is with us.

He delights in us;
He rejoices over us;
His love quiets us.

Do not be afraid –
God will never forsake us;
We trust His promise.

Our Immanuel,
Our God is with us always;
He gives us His peace.

Bible Readings: Ephesians 2:13; Hebrews 13:5,6; Zephaniah 3:17

“But now in Christ Jesus you, who once were far off, have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:13”

“…He has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’ So we can confidently say, ‘The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?’ Hebrews 13:5,6”

“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you by His love; He will exult over you with loud singing. Zephaniah 3:17”
