He’ll Never Let You Down
…There is a friend that sticketh closer than a
brother (Proverbs 18:24).
We all have friends, relatives and loved ones—
people we relate with, talk with, share with,
pray with and whose company we enjoy. Whereas it’s
possible for your friends or loved ones to disappoint
you or let you down in your hour of need, there’s
ONE who never gives up on you. He never fails or
disappoints those who trust in Him; His Name is Jesus!
What you need is to develop a personal relationship
with Him—an intimacy.
The beautiful thing is that you don’t need to
look for Him; He lives in you through the Holy Spirit!
Before He ascended, He said, “I will not leave you
comfortless: I will come to you” (John 14:18). In the
preceding verses 16 and 17, He said, “And I will pray
the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter,
that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit
of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because
it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know
him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.”
So today, you fellowship with Jesus by fellowshipping
with the Holy Spirit and with the Word.
The Holy Spirit takes the place of the absent Jesus
and fosters the extraordinary oneness and communion
we have with divinity. You can talk with Him, and He’ll
talk to you. He can talk to you inside you, and also talk
to you from the outside! He’s the dearest friend you
could ever have, and He has the wisdom and ability to
guide and lead you triumphantly every day.
He’ll go any length to help you. He already proved
it through His death for you on the cross. He never
condemns you. Rather, He plucks you out of trouble
without laying blames on you, irrespective of the cause.
He said, “I am with you always, even unto the end of
the world” (Matthew 28:20). What a friend we have
in Him! I love Him so much!
Prayer
Blessed Lord Jesus, you’re my life, and my all; the very air
that I breathe: my lover and best friend. Thank you for your
wisdom that guides me, and your grace that’s superabundant upon
me. Your Word has transformed me, causing me to ride upon the
high places of the earth. What a wonder you are, precious
Saviour! Thank you for your love and eternal kindness towards me.
I love you with all my heart!
