HE NEVER LEAVES US OR FORSAKES US

[The troubles that often surprise us, giving us no time to arm ourselves by thought, and prayer; are the ones most likely to put us into confusion. Abba Father; do not let the wise and good forget themselves, and then we will not give way to fear that has torment, and be the alarmed ever so suddenly!] “Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, for THE LORD WILL BE AT YOUR SIDE and will keep your foot from being snared.” (Prov. 3:25-26) [It would be good for us to put the word of God in one scale, and what we are about to do, in the other, and SEE HOW THEY AGREE; be serious in examining whether your way is good before the Lord and whether it will end well. We must consider our past and examine what we have done, what are doing and where we are going, and see that WE WALK CAREFULLY!] “The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and BE STEADFAST IN ALL YOUR WAYS.” (Prov. 4:18, 26) [Our Abba Father does not watch our ways every now and then, but WE ARE ALWAYS IN HIS VIEW AND UNDER HIS INSPECTION; Why? He is our Abba Father who CONSTANTLY CARES FOR HIS CHILDREN! Remember, your:] “…ways are in full view of the Lord, and he examines all your paths.” (Prov. 5:21) [Because we are always under our Abba Fathers care, and because He is omnipresent, He is also omniscient (all-knowing); heaven and earth include the whole creation of God, and the Creator fills both; he not only knows both, and governs both, but HE FILLS BOTH.] “Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, YOU ARE THERE; if I make my bed in the depths, YOU ARE THERE. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, EVEN THERE YOUR HAND WILL GUIDE ME, YOUR RIGHT HAND WILL HOLD ME FAST.” (Psa. 139:7-10) [Please, Abba Father, order my steps, direct my path and know my heart! It is MY DESIRE TO WALK IN YOUR WAY!] “Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and LEAD ME IN THE WAY EVERLASTING.” (Psa. 139:23-24)

Be blessed as you praise The Lord, knowing that WE ARE ALWAYS IN THE RIGHT HAND OF OUR ABBA FATHER! -Bill Stockham
