Deuteronomy 31:8 He Will Not Fail Thee

Deuteronomy 31:8 (KJV)  And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed. 

Thank God for the promise of His abiding presence and power with His people as they obey His commandments to walk with Him.

There are conjured up many scenes of defeat that bring fear and dismay to the hearts of God’s people. The Word of God assures His people that He doth go before us. In other words, before we tread upon the path of His leading, He has gone ahead along that path to ensure our security and safety.

Israel will be marching into the Promised Land soon after these words and the giants in the land will prove formidable. And yet, the Lord advocates courage on the part of His people.

Let us not lose courage or lose heart, the LORD has promised that He will not forsake us. Amen.
