Isaiah 41:10 10 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.
Most people have some level of day-to-day anxiety which, leads to fear. Sometimes we may even get the blues when we become discouraged. When life drives us here, we need to collect ourselves.
The good news is we never have to collect ourselves in our strength. We can always trust God. We can trust God just as God encouraged His faithful ones too in Isaiah 41. We are also God’s faithful ones. God wants us to know that when we are afraid, He is with us. Despite the terrors of this life we live on earth, God is always with us. He is by our side, in our corner, leading us through the fear.
God also wants us to remember his sovereignty in our discouragement. Often discouragement causes us to consider giving up. There are also times when it leads to doubt. God, however, doesn’t want us to give up or fall into doubt because He is our God. With our God, all things are possible. There is no need to be discouraged or doubt what He can do.
When we need to collect ourselves, we can utilize God’s strength and help. His mighty hand will hold His faithful ones up and bring us forth victorious.
So, I encourage you to hold onto this powerful verse. Hide it in your heart so that when fear, anxiety, discouragement, and doubt sneak up on you, this verse comes to you immediately.
If you struggle in any of the areas I’ve mentioned, I challenge you to memorize some encouraging verses like Isaiah 41:10. The Word of God is a powerful weapon! Don’t be afraid to use it.
Pray this week:
Dear God,
Thank you for your Word that stands with me through the joys and sorrows of life.
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen
