Savior, and our ever present help!

Isaiah 43:11 "I, even I, am the Lord;and beside me there is no savior"

God's promise to save,to help,and to rescue, has been extended to all humanity through Jesus Christ.The God who rescued Judah, is the same God who is with us today,and he rescues all those who call on him,and he walks with them in each hardship.The Lord looked past the sins of mankind, and seen something of value and significance,so much so that He would send His son to die on the cross for our sins.

We never outgrow our need for the Savior. As christians we trust Christ for our salvation from sin and for the promise of eternal life.When we come to Christ,we are justified,or saved from the consequence of our sin.As we walk with Christ, we are sanctified,or set apart to obey God and live for him,saved from the self-centered living, that trapped us in sin and condemed us to death.And when we go to live with him in heaven, we are glorified,realizing the full extent of our salvation,as we are made complete in every way to enjoy fellowship with God forever,face to face.

We never stop needing our Savior in this journey, and He never stops being there for us. Even though as Christians we are santified, set apart to walk daily with our Lord, we find many struggles, trials, difficulties,sorrows,pains,and all manner of needs for His comfort and intervention along the way. These serve as opportunities for us to grow in our trust for the Savior,as we bring our needs to him ,and wait for Him to intervene.He is our Savior,saving us from all circumstances and situations.

We will never stop having a need for the Savior in our lives.He is here for us right now,whatever we may be navigating, wherever we may be struggling .Calling on him, trusting in his promises,and waiting for him are exactly the right things to do,today and all the time. For he alone is or Savior!
