Isaiah 41:10
“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”
I first memorized today’s Scripture when I was a young boy. That was perhaps 80 years ago. There is no way to estimate the number of times this verse has brought me comfort—the loss of loved ones, the loss of earthly possessions—just to name two.
Across the years I have noticed the God-given reasons for placing our eternal trust in Him:
We need not be afraid: “I am with you.”
We need not be discouraged: “I am your God.”
We need not feel weak: “I will strengthen you.”
We need not feel alone: “I will help you.”
We need not feel uncertain: “I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”
As we march into the month of March, let us make this verse in Isaiah our constant reminder that we are never alone. God is for us, so who can be against us. We have already won the victory through Jesus our Lord and Savior.
God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
