Today we are actually going to be talking about Jesus promised to be with you and I'll say this I have been with

Pastor Craig as he mentioned for 26 years and I'll tell you what there's nobody

realer there's nobody more spiritually in tune more loving his family and more love

with Jesus and our senior pastor and I love him and honor him in this time and it's an honor to get to be here and share God's

word with you today as I mentioned we were talking about Jesus being with

you our text actually comes from something known as the Great Commission.

This is actually given in the very end of the book of Matthew in Matthew chapter 28

versus 19 to 20 and if you've never seen it it goes like this

he says therefore go and make disciples of all of the nations baptizing them in the

name of the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit,

and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you,

and surely I am with you always to the very end of the age.

Doesn't that just sound good?

When somebody says, I'm with you, I got you, I got your back,

but Jesus says I'll be with you.

It's just comforting, right?

It feels nice.

And Jesus had proven his power many times before

to his disciples, and before this verse pops up.

And we're going to talk today about time

he doesn't just display his power,

but his presence in being with the disciples.
