Golden Nugget Number 356
God then is for us in giving, for us in justifying, for us in caring for us in everything; even as with the children of Israel, He took care of their very clothes as they passed through the wilderness. God is for us through everything. If death stares me in the face, well, Christ went through it. If evil powers are against me, well, I have a love with me that has been tried, and destroyed that power. I learn in these very things the perfectness of the love of God. It comes out in the minutest circumstance, in every little detail. I come up boldly to this truth, that “If God be for us who can be against us?” There is nothing that can make me say, I do not know whether He be for me or not. If it be difficulties and trials, I say, Well, it just shows what pains God is taking with me.
