Romans 14, V. 7-9, We are not alone

God’s plan for the church was never to have lone wolves or individuals feeling like they are going through life on their own. In fact, it is a plan of the enemy to isolate Christians and have them fill like they are alone in their walk. Therefore, being a part of body of believers is so important to every Christian because we all need love and support at times from our brothers and sisters in Christ. But no matter how great our local church is, there is still going to be times when you feel alone. You feel isolated and feel as if no one understands what you are going through. We seen this with Elijah as he sat beside the brook in 1 Kings 17, he literally felt as if there was no one in the earth on his side and he was all alone. Paul reveals the truth of the matter in verses 7-9 when he tells the church of Rome that we are never alone because Jesus is always with us.

We may fill like our friends, family, and possibly even our church has abandoned us by we can be confident that Jesus is always with us. Hebrew 13:5 says that Lord has promised that he will never leave or forsake us. It should be refreshing to know that we have someone who loves us so much that no matter what we do or where we go, they will be by our side. Life has a way of kicking us in the face and beating us down but know that you are not alone, and you never will be. If we live, we live unto the Lord and if we did, we die unto the Lord. (V. 8) We are winners on both sides of eternity.
