In times of supreme test, God has revealed Himself to me and I have found Him so real that I could shout with absolute confidence, “I know whom I have believed!”¹

God has promised, “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.”² “So we may boldly say: ‘The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?’”³ “If God is for us, who canbe against us?”⁴

In sudden emergencies and prolonged trials, God fulfills His promises today just as surely as He did in the past. He is saying, “I will not fail you. When you are in the midst of trouble or under great stress, just keep courage. I will not under any circumstances forsake you.” And He means that for you.

That’s the God I know, the God whom I have proven year after year under all conditions, and He’s standing ready at this moment to meet you in any trial that you may be passing through. He’s speaking to you now. If you feel that you can go no further unless your load is lightened, this message is for you.

God is faithful. No matter what your age, no matter what your trouble, you are a particular concern of God’s at this very moment. You are the one that He longs to help. “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”⁵
