“I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”

[Genesis 28:15 NIV]

Devotional

God spoke this promise to Jacob in a moment of vulnerability and uncertainty. Jacob was leaving home after deceiving his brother and was heading into an unfamiliar future. He slept under the open sky with a stone for a pillow, unsure of what awaited him. Yet in that lonely place, God revealed His presence through a dream and spoke words that would anchor Jacob for the rest of his life. God promised to be with him, to watch over him, and to fulfill every word He had spoken.

This promise shows us the depth of God’s faithfulness. He does not abandon us when life feels messy or when we are unsure of our next steps. He watches over us with protective care in every place we go. Even when we feel unworthy or uncertain, God remains committed to His work in our lives. He does not stop halfway. He continues until His promises are complete.

In your own journey, you may face seasons where everything feels unfamiliar. You may wonder if you are alone or if God still sees you. Genesis 28:15 assures you that He does. His presence goes with you into every new chapter. His watchful care surrounds you in every season. And His promises follow you wherever your feet may go.

Let this truth comfort your heart today. The God who began His work in you will not leave you. He is with you, watching over you, and faithfully completing every promise He has spoken.
