He saw the slavery of the Israelites and was concerned for them. — Exodus 2:25 (GNB)
Sometimes, the devil wants you to believe that God does not care about you because of the difficult situations you face. But the truth is, no matter what you go through, God is concerned about you and loves to help you. The question is, do you believe this? Are you convinced that God truly cares about you and is willing to help?
I have discovered that not many people truly believe God cares about them. They use their experiences to rate God’s care. They fail to separate their life situations from the love of God. They feel that if God truly loves them, they should not experience hardships, but it doesn’t work that way.
You must come to a place of certainty where you understand that going through difficulties does not change God’s position toward you. He still loves you, and you must believe this. In fact, challenges in life do not reflect the absence of God’s presence; they reveal God’s strategies for your next level!
You might ask, “How are you so sure of all this?” Well, I am certain because my Bible tells me so. When you study the Scriptures closely, you will realize that many people in the Bible faced trouble, yet God remained with them. A perfect example is Joseph. The Bible records that even though he was a slave in his master’s house, God was with him (Genesis 39:2).
When he was in prison, God was still with him, and He gave him favour (Genesis 39:21). Where? Right there in the prison. Did you see that? Joseph’s situation did not stop God from being with him and granting him favour.
God was with him all the way and strategically brought him to the palace, where he became second-in-command. My point is, it doesn’t matter what you are going through; always remember that God is concerned about you and is with you. It was this concern that led Him to send Jesus to pay the ultimate price for you and give you an abundant life. So, rejoice and trust in His love, because He truly cares for you. Hallelujah!
