Don't Be Afraid

Isaiah 41:10
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.

As i contimplate God's word tonight, He reminds me on His promises in that verse Isaih 41:10.

Two ways we shouldn't Do:

FEAR NOT and  BE NOT DISMAYED!

with five reasons:

-God is with us
-He is our God
-He will strengthen us
-He will help us
-He will uphold us with His right hand

Isn't it comforting?

We coudn't deny the fact, people always have FEARS!
- fear of rejection
- fear of pain
- fear of ridicule
-fear of failure
- fear of death
-fear of loneliness
- fear of sufferings
- fear of death
- fear of...... etc....

when we have fears then we DISMAYED!- depressed or discouraged

but when we are in Christ, we should not stick to this emotion but instead, we should lay it down to God for He gave this as command to us. DO NOT FEAR, DO NOT BE DISMAYED! For He is there for us.. Our God who is willing to help us, who will always uphold us when we feel that we are cast down has given these promises and all we have to do is to claim these into our lives.

Whatever situation you are right now, be still! We are in good hands... We have a GREAT and a GOOD GOD.

So cheer up! :)

This song isn't mine...i learned this when i was still in college. A close friend of mine had shared this to me, and it reminds me tonight about God's promises to us... Let's claim these promises for these are for us!

The lyrics:

Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
For I am with you
My promise is made
Through the storm
Through the fire
Fear not my child
For I willbe right
By your side

...

God You are so good
Your tender mercies are new every morning
Oh God, You are so good
Your faithfullness is eternal
Lord You alone are good.

Though cold winds may blow
I will arise like an eagle with You
For I know You will be there
Lifting me higher than this world's despair
You will comfort me.....


Amen! Blessings to all...
