Today’s Scripture: 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
How many times and how many ways does the LORD have to remind us that He is with us? Here in Isaiah the LORD is reminding Israel of His presence and His power. I am praying Israel remembers this today. The LORD is the redeemer of Israel and He is ours.
I am comforted by the promise that God is with me. How awesome is His power and His strength. His Holy Spirit is within me. How much closer can you get than that? The creator of all things, created me. He remains with me, upholds me and guides me. We can not even measure the greatness of His Holy Spirit.
The LORD of Heaven loves me and He is with me so whom shall I fear? The LORD is my only savior, my only redeemer. He has called my name and I am His.
Do You know that the LORD is God and that He is with you?
Today’s Prayer: Almighty God, thank You for loving me and being with me. You created me and I pray I will honor You with my sacrifices and my witness of You. Forgive me for when I turn to my own strength and thank You for renewing my strength when I turn to You. With You I go. Amen
