As Christians, we need to remind ourselves constantly of who we are in Christ. You have to remind yourself, “I am not alone in this world; God is with me.” We face challenges daily but we ought to give God praise regardless of the challenges. As the Scriptures let us know that “many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivers him out of them all” (Psalm 34:19). He says you are the head and not the tail and you will be above only and not beneath (Deuteronomy 28:13). He says nothing can stand against you, because the greater One indwells you. The Lord Jesus Christ has given us a picture of what our lives ought to be like, no matter what we are going through today, because of the victory that we have received in Him.
As a child of God, have confidence in God’s Word for it is your defense. The Bible says they that know their God shall be strong and they shall do exploits. When you are filled with the knowledge of God through His Word, you can boldly remind yourself what you are here to do. You can confidently declare the great works that are ahead of you to accomplish. Jesus said, “… he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him” (John 8:29). Now, if Jesus has sent you just as He was sent by the Father, it means the Father has not left you alone. The Lord Himself made this sovereign declaration in Matthew 28:20: “…Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” You are not alone in this World!
