THE MAIN THEME:  CHANGING YOUR WORLD

TITLE: FACING YOUR FEARS

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Isaiah 41:13 (NIV)

For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.”

Devotional

There are different types of fears in the bible but the one our topic for today is referring to is a type of fear that is detrimental and can destroy one’s confidence. It brings worry, torment and unrest.

Everyday of our life we are confronted with one fear or the other. Fear of facing our academics with courage, fear of failure, fear of rejection or isolation by our peers, fear of death or loss of someone.

These are natural to our existence but God knowing that we will face these fears, commands us in Isaiah 41:10 saying Fear not for I am with you Be not dismayed for I am your God, I will

God wants to be famous for his compassion and ability to deliver us. He wants to be famous for showing up in our despair and being our source of overcoming our fears. Remember when Moses had to go back to Pharaoh after his encounter with God at mount Sinai, that was a moment of excruciating fear. He had to face the same king that raised him, whom he had turned his back on because of his love for his brethren. It was not an easy task but Moses had to trust God and embark on the journey of leading the Israelite out of Egypt. It is in God’s nature to come to our rescue whenever we call upon Him Jere 33:3

God has not given us the spirit of fear but the spirit of love and sound mind 2 Tim 1:7 In our text for today God promises to hold us by the hand and help us. What a father we have in Jesus! What a connection!

Here are a few reflective questions:

1. What fears have I exalted above the Almightiness of God?
2. Are there no times God has shown up for me in the past? 
3. Why can’t I trust Him for my present fears?

Let us Pray:

Thank you, Lord, for your word to me today. I receive the spirit of love, power and sound mind. I choose to release all my fears, cares and worries to your helping hands in Jesus name Amen

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:

• I am held in God’s hand, I shall fear no evil
• I am courageous and bold

Cheers to a beautiful day. I’ll see you tomorrow.
