How do we know God is with us?

Answered in 16 sources

We know God is with us through faith in Him, walking in His ways, and the testimony of others who see His providence in our lives.

To discern God's presence, one must first possess a genuine faith that leads to a life reflecting His teachings. As it is stated, 'Fear the Lord and walk in His ways' (Psalm 128:1), which forms the foundation of a believer's life. Second, experiencing trials is not a sign of God's absence; rather, it is through these difficulties that God’s presence is often made manifest. Furthermore, others will notice God's providence in our lives when we exhibit resilience and grace during tribulations—this can be a powerful testimony to the truth of God's working in our lives. Joseph's life serves as a case study where God's presence was noted not just through personal comfort, but through visible outcomes in his service, whether as a slave or in prison.
