Praise God from whom ALL Blessings flow!

No matter the situation, no matter whether you are by yourself or surrounded by friends and family, you are in the company of the Almighty God! For He is our Emmanuel which means “God with us” and He was called that for a reason!

Matthew 1:23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “GOD WITH US”).”

To be “with us” is His deepest desire. That is the reason for the season actually. That is why He came as a Savior.

He came to rescue us because He wants to be “with us” forever in Heaven.

He doesn’t want to wait to be with us either, He wants to start now, today, this minute. He is happy that you are taking the time right now to be “with” Him too.

One more thing before you go, He is always “with” us whether we know it or acknowledge it, or not.

Matthew 28:19-20 “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. AND SURELY I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, to the very end of the age.”

Deuteronomy 31:6 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD YOUR GOD GOES WITH YOU; HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU nor forsake you.”

Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD YOUR GOD WILL BE WITH YOU WHEREVER YOU GO.”
