Deuteronomy 31:6(KJV)
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
It is crucial to recognize that using fear as a weapon is a tactic commonly employed by the devil to facilitate defeat. While fear may be prevalent in the world today, we, as children of God, must be of good courage and void of fear. We should have confidence in knowing that we should never be afraid of what any man or woman can do to us, for God is always with us. The I AM THAT I AM has promised to always be with us and never fail or forsake us. Our God can never forget us; He has us so close to Him that He ensures everything works together for our good, gives people for our sake, and protects us as the apple of His Eyes. No matter how many children He has around the globe, He knows every single one by name (Isaiah 43:1). The Scripture assures us that God will always go with us, not fail or forsake us. Whenever we feel afraid, God promises to give us strength, help, and support us with His Mighty Right Hand. The Lord leads and never forsakes. He already knows the way when we face difficulties and will lovingly guide us.
In the darkest moments of life, the assurance of His Loving Presence gives us confidence that we are not alone. The Lord goes before us, leading the way into uncharted territory. He knows the path intimately and never forsakes His children. 2 Chronicles 32:8 says, “With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.” Under the influence of the Holy Spirit, King Hezekiah told the people to be courageous in the face of the threats of war from Sennacherib, king of Assyria. The action the people took made God release His angel to annihilate all the fighting men in the camp of the Assyrians. Life’s challenges confront us differently, but our faith and confidence in God determine the results. Deuteronomy 20:1 says, “When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them: for the Lord thy God is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.” The Scripture promotes courage and trust in God’s Presence during times of conflict or adversity; even when facing overwhelming odds, we can find strength in our faith.
Beloved, our God is a dependable refuge for you when everything around you seems to be falling apart. He is our Strong Tower against the enemy, a defense for His people. El Elyon is the only One who can get you out of tight places when you are boxed into a corner and threatened on every side. Whenever the enemy comes against us as a flood, the Spirit of God is readily available to lift a standard against him. Fear not, nor be afraid of those constantly fighting you spiritually and physically because Elohim is with you and will never fail or forsake you. Trust in His unwavering presence, even when circumstances seem uncertain. Jesus Christ shall give you comfort and companionship. Be strong and courageous, for courage is a virtue that is not optional for those who want to fulfill destiny! Today, courageously step into the unknown, thanking Jehovah Nissi that it is not unknown to Him, for He is already there. Remember, El Roi will always give you the Grace to endure and the wisdom to know He is working in your favor.
O LORD, thank You for Your Word, give me the spirit of courage, and help me never to lose my faith in Jesus’ Name.
