TOPIC: God Doesn’t Abandon His Own (TREM Devotional 27 July 2026)
“He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee. And he must needs go through Samaria.” – John 4:3-4 KJV
MESSAGE
Jesus intentionally went through Samaria. There were other routes He could have taken, shorter, easier paths from Galilee to His destination, but it was necessary for Him to pass through Samaria, all because of one woman. Sometimes, God moves toward your direction on purpose because you are always on His mind.
Having seen all that you have endured, the challenges, the tears, and the trials, you can rest in the assurance that He comes to settle you. This is one of the most beautiful truths about Jesus. From the smallest detail to the greatest circumstance, nothing escapes His notice.
It is wrong for you to discount your own significance. There is no person about whom He is unaware. He knows the number of hairs on your head, and you are far more valuable to Him than the sparrows. Even when you feel alone or abandoned, understanding that God honours His promises above His name will remind you that He will never leave you nor forsake you.
He does not abandon His sheep, and He does not turn His back on His own. He is always present, working on your behalf. God will always come through for you.
If God allows you to face difficult or uncomfortable situations, it is not a sign of His absence. Rather, it is because He knows you are able to endure and emerge stronger and better. He is assuring you today: “Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee” (Isaiah 43:1-2 KJV).
Therefore, do not cast away your confidence in Christ. Trust in Him, for your faithfulness will yield a great reward.
