“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 NKJV
The awareness of God’s presence gives us the strength to overcome fear,
anxiety, worry and discouragement. God does not merely watch from a distance;
He promises to strengthen, help and uphold His people. Every believer in Christ
can therefore face difficult circumstances with confidence, knowing that Jesus
is always present (Matthew 28:20). Your situation is not hopeless because you
are not facing it alone. Even when you pass through deep waters, overwhelming
rivers or intense fire, God has promised to remain with you and preserve you
(Isaiah 43:2).
Peter walked on water while his attention remained on Jesus, but he
began to sink when fear replaced his consciousness of Christ’s presence. The
moment he cried, “Lord, save me,” Jesus immediately reached out and caught him
(Matthew 14:30–32). Peter then walked on the same water that had threatened to
swallow him because the hand of Jesus was holding him. In the same way, you can
rise above circumstances that appear impossible when you remember that Christ
is with you. The One helping you cannot fail; therefore, celebrate your victory
even while the battle is still raging.
Prophetic Word: You will not sink under the pressures of
life. The hand of the Lord will uphold you, strengthen you, and bring you safely
through every storm. You shall enter the boat, and every contrary wind
troubling your life shall cease. Your present battle will end in praise, in
Jesus’ name.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for assuring me that I am never
alone. Help me to remain conscious of Your presence in every circumstance.
Deliver me from fear, worry and anxiety, and strengthen my faith to trust You
completely. Hold my hand when I feel weak, lift me above every storm and
silence every contrary wind in my life. Let every challenge I am facing end in
victory and praise, in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
