The 'With-ness' of God
Isaiah 43:1-5a
1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
5 Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
These times in which we live are troubled times. It is a fact that we have troubles on almost every platform of life: from global to personal. Never forget that God did not promise that we would not have to negotiate trouble, but God does promise to be with us. It always matters who you have with you, especially in a world of uncertainties. Notice that the text says, 'when you have trouble' and not 'if you have trouble'. This suggests that trouble is something that we all shall have to confront, but we do not have to confront it alone. In this psalm the Lord says, “I’ll be with you". Let us not be worried about the things that are happening around us, but instead, have confidence knowing that God is with Us.
