“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 NLT
God’s word consistently challenges us to trust Him. Will I believe His promises? Will I trust that what He says is true? Will I accept that God is good, that He really loves me and that His plan is the best plan for my life? Often our circumstances will make us question this but read again what He is actually saying: in telling us not to be afraid or discouraged it’s because we will face fearful and discouraging situations! Jesus said that in this world we will face many trials? What’s the point of knowing Him them? Well with Him or without Him we will go through these things, but with Him we can experience His strength and His help. With Him we will know His amazing presence that brings peace. With Him, we will see that all things work for His good purpose! Only with Jesus will we know what it is to be overcomers. Lord Jesus, whatever I face today help me to trust You, to be alert to You and obedient to You. Amen 🙏🏼
