DAY 6 OF 9

With God On Your Side

With God on your side…. you can fill in the blank. Let your imagination run wild. When God is with you, you can actually do the impossible. The magnitude of that statement is enough to change your life. Do you fully know how much His presence makes a difference? If you commit to knowing God and walking with Him, He will walk with you. God sticks by your side in every sphere of your life. He will give you the power and the ability to do things that you are not qualified for. He adds a touch like no other, He gives you wisdom and His Spirit augments your efforts.

When God is with you, be sure of these things:

  1. You do not need to fear anyone or any situation
  2. He will train / teach you to succeed in everything and in every place
  3. Favour becomes a part of your brand - you are known for supernatural favour

David was a shepherd boy, yet the Bible says that God gave him success on the battlefield. He had never been to war, but He knew God. He won the battle that qualified soldiers were not prepared to fight. His strength was built in God’s company and God trained Him. Likewise, Joseph was sold into slavery as a teenager into a foreign land, not speaking the language and with no experience in leadership. Yet when God was with Him, everything He did was successful and he was elevated to being Prime Minister of Egypt.

You are anointed because you are not alone. Understand that if God is with you, you will stand out from the crowd. Don’t discount or discredit yourself because if you are intentional about your relationship with God, He will make you different in this life. You will be a leader and not a follower, the head and not the tail, above and not beneath. What sets you apart is His Presence before you, beside you and behind you. Moses understood this, and refused to advance on the journey to the Promise Land unless God Himself was present amongst them. Moses knew the journey and destination would not be the same, if God was not by their side.

Now reflect on this - as much as you want God to be with you, is it obvious to God that you want to be with Him? Do your preferences, your priorities and plans demonstrate your desire to be with Him? Jesus said seek God first and all other things will be added. He will send you into places that He has prepared for you - that might be taking you into the boardroom, or taking you into ministry, or expanding your business. Don’t underestimate the presence of God. He is faithful and as He said it, just believe it!
