The first thing is whether you Truly had God in the first place.

For when He leaves you, you would surely surely Know, He has left, as happened to Saul, Solomon, Samson, David etc

He's not even there in the first place so there's
no one leaving anyone leaving anyone.

Was God with anyone in the first place?

Job was tested severely and that doesn't mean God left him.

Before the first century only people who have a close relationship with the God of Israel can be sure that they're always in the presence of God anywhere they may go on this planet! Psalms 23:4

After Jesus' ministry only the Christians have the assurance that God is with them {Matthew 18:20} yet we need to continue associating with the holy ones because that's the only way we can prove that we are always with our God. Hebrews 10:24-25 compare to Matthew 18:20

Peter asked Jesus one important question:

“Look! We have left all things and followed you; what, then, will there be for us?” Matthew 19:27

Peter wants to know what will be their gain after loosing so many things in the world just to be with Jesus.
What did Jesus promised those faithful Jews?

“Truly I say to you, no one has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for my sake and for the sake of the good news who will not get 100 times more now in this period of time—houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and fields, with persecutions—and in the coming system of things, everlasting life". Mark 10:29-30

So i often ask myself:

Do i have brothers and sisters throughout the world today who see me as a member of their spiritual family everywhere i go?

The answer to this question matters most to me because Jesus said this is what i will gain first before i can think of everlasting life!

May you have PEACE!

Bros, I for say "for mouth and eye only" but I just wan dey my lane.

Okay I understand where you're going. It's just that I like to think of the Body of Christ as One. With the exception of Mormons, JWs and White Garments all of whom I regard as cult members who are pretending to be Christians.

Where is the double speak, probably in your head. Better check what you are on.

In Job 1:16 or there about God sent fire balls to destroy Job's. But yet he was declared righteous by God when Satan whinned God to punish Job.

Meaning, God was with Job and therefore implying that "There is God", thus, cancelling your former earlier statement implying that "there is no God". Which is called "Double Speak" aka "speaking from 2 sides of your mouth", in Law, it is the offence of "Approbating and Reprobating".

Where did i say there is no God and later say there is God?

Why do you like accusing someone blindly like this?

1. God is not physically with anyone. And He doesn't need to be....
2. Job and many people were tested. And God still approve them even while He still tests them.

I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD (YAHWEH), do all these things. Isaiah 45:7

Continue to see "things" everywhere!

Your church goers don't believe in and trust God who said that He will never leave or forsake those who belong to Him - those who trust and obey His commandments - that is why they say those desperate prayers.

Jesus Christ said those who Love Him are those who obey His commandments and it is inside of them He and the Father will come and make their home in - John 14 vs 15 - 25. It follows that for God to live inside of you, you must submit to living your very life in obedience of His every commandments and God will show up when you do - you will know when God lives inside of you. Jesus Christ put it another way when He said, "if you abide in me, I will abide in you... " - John 15 vs 1 - 11 - so, when you obey God, you will know God is with you. However, if you live in disobedience of God's commandments, you refuse to obey Him, then God cannot live inside of you.

So it isn't so much that God leaves you but that you reject Him by your continued disobedience of His Commandments.

Your relationship with God will determine if He is still with you or not.

For example when Jesus feed 5thousand men in the Bible, he made it clear that whenever he called Him (God), He do answer, this shows that God never leave him. Now compare to when he was crucified "He cried out that Father thou had forsaken me". The reason why God abandoned him was because he bear the sin of the world at that moment.

In as much you are still in line with God's principles and doing His will, then believe God have not leave you.
