TOPIC: FEAR NOT, I AM WITH THEE!. MONDAY SEPTEMBER 11
TEXT: ISAIAH 43:1-3
KEY VERSE: “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not
dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea,
I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” (Isaiah
41:10).
Today’s
devotional is a message of comfort and assurance from the Lord.
My
child, understand that I will never be swayed from My purposes by the fortunes
of life. Do not fear that even your own shortcomings and mistakes will affect
those things which are the subject of my promises to you. You know that I am
faithful and not capricious. The ground which you tread with Me is not always
easy ground. But it is a safe ground. It is the way forward, planned by Me,
according to your individual needs. When discouraged, My children will always
turn back to Me showing their realization deep within that there is nowhere
else to go but to Myself? My promise is that you will come to know, fully, that
your trust in Me has not been in vain.
“There
hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful,
who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the
temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.” (1
Corinthians 10:13.)
I
would never ask of My children anything which is beyond them. Remember this
when striving to overcome the obstacles and temptations of life for My sake.
How vital it is always to refuse temptation at once. It is refused by the
glance to Me, the glance of faith. This takes you above that which you know
would be wrong, as you just see Me surrounding and upholding you. Just use My victory in temptations of every
kind. Crowd out evil by immersing yourself, as far as you can, in what is good
and beautiful and joyful and innocent.
“Finally,
my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the
whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the
devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour
of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all,
to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having
on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of
the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall
be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of
salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying
always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto
with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; And for me, that
utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known
the mystery of the gospel.” (Ephesians 6:10-19).
Thought for the day:
The plan of God concerning your life cannot be thwarted.
Song for the
day:
I will exalt you Lord. for thou has lifted me … your banner over me is
love.
