What kind of God do the saints think of when they think of God? When does God appear to us, and how does He relate to us?
God is always with you
Who is the person you spend most of your time with? People who go to work in the morning and leave in the evening can be co-workers, wives or husbands. Just because we're together doesn't mean we're all good. There are many uncomfortable things. God is a God who is always with you, as if He is not there, as if He is not there for 12 months in a year, 365 days, 24 hours, neither minute nor slumber nor sleep. The Lord came to this earth to be together.
Why is God with us?
Why is God with us?
He is a God who helps. God is a helper. You help me, you help my family, you help my life.
Yay Jireh! God is a God who prepares. He prepares material things, prepares the way ahead, prepares people.
Yay Nissi! True victory is promised in God.
Yay Shalom! There is true peace in God.
Who is God with?
He is with those who please God. He is with those who abide in the promises of God. If you go beyond God's fence, you cannot be protected. Jesus Christ is God's fence. You must be within the protection of the shepherd.
The church is God's fence. God's 66 books are God's fence. No matter where we are, what we do, or where we live, if the saints are in the Word, just as a flock is in us, God is our strong fence.
