The Book of Deuteronomy
Bible Promises  
Old Testament
God Promises He Will Carry Us Through Every Trials - (Deuteronomy 1:31)

Bible Promise
I will carry you in My arms just like a father carries his child.

Bible Verse
And in the wilderness where you saw how the Lord your God carried you, as a man carries his son, in all the way that you went until you came to this place.

Reading Notes
The fledgling nation of Israel had to endure forty years of trials, battles and hardships because of their sin and rebellion against God. That was forty years of day to day trials, for each person from the time they entered the wilderness, until the time that entire generation, who went into the wilderness died. And it was their children who entered into the Promised Land. Even though it was their sin that caused them to wander in the wilderness, and it was their sin that prevented them from entering the Promised Land, God was with them every step of the way. God led them by a pillar of clouds shielding them from the desert heat by day. And watched over them with a pillar of fire for protection and warmth by night.

They were fed directly by God with manna every morning, and at the end of the day they took off their shoes and clothing which never wore out. Their clothes never got old during the forty years of wandering, because the Lord kept them in His care. This generation of people saw first hand the miracles of God performed both in Egypt and in the wilderness. This generation witnessed first hand the actions of God on their behalf and heard the voice of God from Mount Sinai. And no matter how many battles they faced, God was there, He carried them through each and every trial. This is also true for us today. The Holy Spirit is with all of God's children, He indwells us and carries out God's process of spiritual growth in us. Now this doesn't mean we won't have trials, because Jesus told us we will. But it does mean He is there to carry and see us through each trial. He is there to ensure that we will never have more than we can bear, with God by our side.
