We give glory to God for the grace He has given us, for the salvation He has given us, even without us deserving it at all. I mean, every believer must understand that grace has been granted, I reaffirm, every believer must know that He has been saved from hell because of the wide mercy that God had for us since before the creation of the world.
It is very popular to pronounce the biblical quote: “If God is with us, who can be against us?” But, the question is: Do you believe or believe that God is really with us? Sometimes we forget that God is with us, and we reflect an illusion in our afflictions that God is coming, that we will find Him at the end of the tunnel, but no, God is at the beginning and at the end.
Do you think you are victorious because you were strong? Do not! You are victorious because God accompanied you all the way, do you understand that?
There is a part of a song by Marcos Vidal that says:
You are not talking about Him if you say that he has not heard you that he has abandoned you, without taking care of you, you do not know him yet … You say that he ignores you, that he does not listen when you cry and that you come to doubt if he was ever here, Who do you think you’re talking about? Take a balance and then …
God, in many verses of the Scriptures has promised to be with us, and sometimes we dare to doubt that He is really with us, and of course, it is normal that sometimes we believe that God is not, but in the middle of all that we must understand that God is with us, and then, if God is with us, who is against us?
The apostle Paul wrote:
What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Romans 8:31
Before Paul says these words tells us about how God chose us in Christ, then he tells us about the high price that Christ paid for us on the Cross. Do you think there is something or someone that can destroy us when the Mighty God is on our side? No way !, and that is why we encourage you to trust in God with all your heart at all times, whether they are good or bad, God is with us and nothing and no one can separate us from His infinite and great love.
Many times our thoughts betray us, especially when we face trials that seem greater than our strength. It is in those moments when we must remember that God has already promised to walk with us. He is not a distant God watching from far away; He is a Father who accompanies His children step by step. Even when our emotions shout that He is absent, His Word reminds us that He is near, sustaining us with His mighty hand.
Throughout the Scriptures we find countless examples of men and women who felt abandoned, yet God was working in silence. Joseph, for example, spent years suffering injustices, but the Bible repeatedly affirms: “The Lord was with Joseph.” This same truth applies to us today. Though we may not see immediate results, God’s presence is constant and His purpose never fails. Every trial becomes a tool in His hands to strengthen our faith and shape our character.
We must understand that victory does not come from our own efforts but from the One who walks beside us. When Paul wrote that nothing can be against us, he also listed tribulation, persecution, hunger, danger and sword. He didn’t ignore that suffering exists; instead, he assured us that none of these things can remove us from God’s hand. This is the believer’s greatest confidence: not a life free of pain, but a life filled with the presence of the Almighty.
And if God is truly with us, then our perspective must change. What we once viewed as barriers now become opportunities to witness His power. The prayers we thought were unanswered are actually being woven into His perfect plan. The storms that threaten to overthrow us are the very experiences that reveal His faithfulness.
Therefore, let us walk each day with the assurance that the Lord is not only watching us, but actively guiding us. Let us rest in His grace, remembering that salvation was given to us long before we even existed. And if He loved us enough to give His own Son for our redemption, how will He not also sustain us in every trial?
Hold firmly to this truth: If God is with us, nothing and no one can stand against His perfect purpose for our lives. His presence is our victory.
