2. God promises us that He is with us ALWAYS

Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”

Hebrews 13:5-6 Let you conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we may boldly say: “The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?

He lavishes His love towards us. Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! 1 John 3:1

He gives us hope – abounding hope

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13

He gives us abounding grace And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work. 2 Corinthians 9:8

  • Grace to save us
  • Grace to keep and sustain us
  • Grace to lead us home
