Daily Devotion:
"God Is with Us"
Isaiah 41:10
New International Version
10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Fear and discouragement are partners in crime. They work together and make us forget that God is with us, and try to convince us that we are weak and alone. But, man or woman of God, you don’t have to be a victim of fear and discouragement because you have something more powerful: Truth. And the truth is, God is with you. The promise is, He is your God. When you are weak, He will be your strength.
When you need help, He is there. In God’s hands, you are a victor, not a victim. We can be brave in facing our fears because God is on our side. We can stand firm in our faith and courageous in Christ when fear and discouragement come our way. Fear flees in the face of faithfulness, and discouragement dissipates when we declare God is with us. Turn and face your fears. God is with you and you are held.
