Go Through

Go Through

When the dark night of misery shadows your way,
Go through, in dark times God leads, as if it were day.

When you must cross life’s rivers that rage,
Go through, God will usher you safely through every stage.

When in the lowest valley where mighty men despair,
Go through, the Lord’s presence will set your mind at rest there.

When your soul is tested in life’s furnace of fire,
Go through, neither heat nor flame will harm; God is your fortifier.

When challenged to a battle by your devilish foes,
Go through, God can grant victory, without you ever coming to blows.

When charged by God to carry out a great mission,
Go through, God will work in and through you to bring His will to fruition.

When faced with suffering for bearing your cross after the Lord,
Go through, in due course God shall bless you with your heavenly reward.

When crossing your wilderness en route to the Promised Land,
Go through, you are sure to make it, the Lord upholds you by His right hand.

Multitudes have gone through the hell and high water of life and lived to tell their testimony. By faith, they experienced first hand God’s awesome delivering power. Whatever challenge is staring you down, rise to meet it in the strength of the Lord, for He is well able to carry you all the way through. Christ went through the torturous cross that He may pay our sin debt. By trusting in Him, we have a Savior that promised to be there to see us through the ever-unfolding but unpredictable seasons of this life into the beyond words, but yet-to-be seen era of life everlasting.

Isaiah 43:2-3a (New Living Translation) - When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
