(1 John 4:15 NKJV) Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
God abides in him. Who is the him he is referring to? Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God. God abides in that person.
To confess means to admit and to abide means to live or stay somewhere. So as we admit Jesus is the Son of God, He will live and stay in us.
Even if we are going through a tough time and it is our fault…He’s there! He did not go anywhere; He didn’t leave us to fend for ourselves. We will not have to pick up the pieces and fix it alone.
Some may say how do we know that God is with us? Do we get some kind of feeling? Is there a sign to look for? Maybe He was with us and then left because He’s angry at us for the mistake we made.
It’s not always how we feel or what we see happening. Sometimes there is nothing at all to feel, see or know. It just is.
God will not leave us; He stays. We just have to trust, believe and STAND, knowing that God’s Word is true.
He does what He says!!
