God is for me

"You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book? Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call. This I know, that God is for me. In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me?" (Psalm 56:8-11).

As I face a difficult trial (please pray for me) what great encouragement I receive when I'm reminded that I'm able to say as the Psalmist did, "This I know, that God is for me." The God that created the universe, the God who knows every hair on my head, that keeps count of all my tossing and turning, that saves every tear that I shed in a bottle, He is with me and for me. The Apostle Paul put it this way, "If God be for us, who can be against us?" (Rom. 8:31). So no matter what I'm facing I know that God is going to see me through. He's done so countless times before and he will do it again. I don't know what the future may hold, But this one thing I know for sure, "God is for me." (Psalm 56:9) Can I get a witness?
