You’re Stronger Than You Think

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. - Isaiah 41:10 (ESV)

When we are going through difficult times or have unexpected problems, we often think, “I can’t take this.” But you are stronger than you think you are because God has promised to strengthen you.

When we look back over our lives, there are many very difficult things we have done that initially we thought we couldn’t do. It is good to remember those times when God helped you and to be confident that He will do it again. I encourage you not to allow fear of the unknown to control you, because even though you don’t know what will happen, God does, and it will end well.

Make a decision to trust God when you don’t have the answers, knowing that He is good and faithful and will never fail you.

Confess: I will not fear the unknown because God knows all things, and He will always take care of me (2 Timothy 4:17).

Pray: Father, thank You for Your grace for the situations and conversations ahead of me today. Thank You that I’m not walking into any of them alone because YOU are with me, and I choose to trust You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
