"Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and I will bless thee ..." Genesis 26:3 Isaac was obedient and he was blessed.
Sometimes blessings come from going when and where God tell us to go. Some blessings come from being in the right place at the right time. Obedience to God's word and direction will result in our being blessed.
God is everywhere, all at the same time, but having God "with" us is special. God was "with" Isaac, when he sowed, he received a one hundred fold increase. Genesis 26:12 God blessed him. There are twelve other examples of God being "with" men in the Bible. God was "with" Ishmael, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Samuel, David, Solomon, Jeremiah, Jesus, and Paul.
If we obey God's word, the same can happen to us, we will be blessed and God can be "with" us.
