The Promise of God’s Presence

Isaiah 43:2, “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.”
 
Ever felt as if you were drowning or about to be consumed by fire? In this promise from God He lets you know that you are not going through the water or the fire by yourself! The greatest treasure in this verse is the promise of God’s presence. “I will be with you.” God says. Are you in deep water? God will be with you! Are you crossing a raging river? God will be with you! Walking through fire? God will be with you! Don’t look for ways around the water or the fire. Trust God to carry you through on to the other side.
