I am Not Alone! Exodus 14:14—“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” There are so many hard things we face on this side of heaven. Songs that minister to me the most are ones that remind me God knows and sees where I am and is working on my behalf. It’s real and it’s life. What a sweet reminder that we are not alone and that we have a mighty God who goes before us, and never ever leaves us. This song inspires us to “draw near to God and He will draw near to us” (James 4:8). I began writing this song in Australia with Marty Sampson and Mia Fieldes. We found ourselves singing one part over and over again. The chorus, which says, “I am not alone, I am not alone.” I took the song back to the states and felt led to finish it with my band. While my band and I were traveling and ministering, we felt a common theme telling us to remind people in the congregation that God goes before us, fighting for us (see Exodus 14:14). We spent some time praying while staying in a cabin in rural Tennessee. We prayed over the album; about what songs should go on the project; for miracles; and for a breakthrough in worship. It was such a sweet day that really unified us as a band. So then we started diving into “I Am Not Alone,” and we felt the presence of God sweetly fill the cabin. The verses all come from Psalm 23, Exodus 14:14, and Isaiah 43. It is our prayer for you that you will be reminded youre not alone and that “God fights for you . . . you need only to be still.” Kari Jobe
