God's Promises
Isaiah 41:10
God assures us as believers and His people that He will protect us in the here and now, in whatever adversities and trials we experience. But so often, we need far more than just a distant, future hope of deliverance. We need to know that God will be with us day by day in our present circumstances. God tells us that whether in the present or in the future and in whatever circumstances, we are not to fear. Isaiah 41:10 presents three reasons why believers should not be anxious or afraid.
First, God's people should not fear because He Himself is with us. He strengthens and helps us and upholds us with His right hand—His righteous, victorious hand. Even in the very worst times we are not to be dismayed or frightened by the oppression of any enemy.
Second, the Lord tells us that He is our God and that He will strengthen and help us. Meditating on this promise should give enormous encouragement to believers who are facing oppression and anxiety.
Third, we, as God's people, are not to fear because He is our Redeemer. In this passage, the Lord calls Himself our "Redeemer," the family protector of His people (Is. 41:14). As our Redeemer, He promises to help us. As the Holy One, He is distinct, completely set apart by His power, knowledge, and understanding. Thus, He is able to completely fulfill His purpose in the lives of His people despite their anxiety-triggering circumstances. As our Redeemer, God will empower us and He will also give us hearts that rejoice and glory in Him.
Study Questions:
- How does God help you in times of distress?
- Do you see God as your Redeemer?
- Give yourself time to meditate on the promises of God. Let these promises ease the anxiety in your heart.
