Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.
Deuteronomy 31:6
NKJV Bible
Today, many people are feeling that God has forgotten them and that they have to manoeuvre through life on their own. That's far from the truth! This verse reassures us that Almighty God has neither forgotten nor abandoned us and we are encouraged to be strong and courageous because of that irrefutable truth. He is always with us leading, guiding, protecting and helping. Especially at this time, when chaos seems to be all around us, many are fearful of the future, feeling overwhelmed, discouraged and even helpless at times and God seems far away. They feel lost and alienated.
There's no need for us to feel forsaken. God is always with us! The solution for combating fear is the assurance that God is always at our side. He goes before us to pave the way and to keep us from stumbling and succumbing to the pitfalls of the enemy. This is a wonderful promise from God and one that we need to appropriate. God will never forsake us and we need to look beyond our fears and insecurities and fix our eyes on Him. When we do, peace fills our souls in the midst of the turmoil.
Thank you Lord for Your promise to always be with me. I thank You for Your abiding presence in my life and surrender all my fears and discouragement to You. I know You will never abandon me. I love you, Jesus. Amen!
Be Blessed!
