DO NOT BE AFRAID, GOD IS WITH YOU

 "I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand, and I will keep you... Isaiah 42:6" 


God created you for a special purpose, and He is with you until you fulfil that purpose. Anything carrying God's purpose indeed faces opposition, and you will surely encounter many challenges as you pursue it.

This verse from the book of Isaiah speaks about the life of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, whom God sent into the world to bring and uphold His righteousness. When He sent Him, He assured Jesus that He would be with Him throughout His journey on earth until He completed the task He was given.

Now, the same God who was with Jesus Christ is with you today, and He created you for a specific purpose. The words He spoke to Christ while He was on earth are the same words He is saying to you today. Just as He was with Jesus Christ, He is with you today.

Looking at the life of Jesus on earth, the Word of God says, "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet He did not sin. Hebrews 4:15." Therefore, Jesus went through the same trials you face. Isaiah 53:3 is written about Jesus "He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces; He was despised, and we held Him in low esteem." 

So, in all these situations that Jesus faced, God was telling Him, "I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand, and I will keep you." The same message applies to you today.

Therefore, it does not matter what you are going through in your life or what challenges you face in the work that God has given you. Do not be afraid, for God says to you, "I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand, and I will keep you." 

Prayer: Thank you, God, for being with me. I believe I will overcome all trials and challenges through Your strength and power. Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...
