Wherever you go, Jesus is with you

Live to Love Scripture Encouragement - A podcast by Norm Wakefield

John 2:1-2 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there; and both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. We can’t be encouraged enough to live our lives with Jesus. In this verse, we see that both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. I guess the hosts knew that if they invited Jesus, they had to also invite His disciples. He didn’t go anywhere without them. Or maybe the hosts understood that if they invited Mary, they had to invite her Son and His entourage. Whatever the case, there’s a great truth I want to encourage you with today: If you go somewhere, Jesus is with you, just like if Jesus went somewhere, His disciples were with Him. There’s never a time when Jesus isn’t with us. In John 14:16, it is recorded that Jesus told His disciples, “I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever.” Then, in John 15:5, “I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.” And after giving them marching orders to go to make disciples in the nations, He promised, “I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” The encouragement is this: Wherever you are, He is with you! You may expect to see Jesus do great things because you are with Him, and He is with you. The next few days, we’ll be encouraged by how the Father loved His Son, His mother, and the entire wedding party. Walking in love with Jesus is an adventure. Remember, you are not alone. Wherever you go, Jesus is with you. I invite you to become a partner in our ministry. Would you pray about becoming a regular supporter of Elijah Ministries and the Live to Love with Jesus ministry? I hope you will receive the joy and benefit of “giving it forward,” so others may receive encouragement to turn their hearts to God and to live to love with Jesus.
