“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand
of my righteousness.” (Isaiah 41:10) No matter how saved we think we are, fear will try to creep in and take hold ever so often. But as suggested by Spurgeon, “As grace grows and increases in power, fear declines.” In essence, it has a lesser hold on us, as we realize that where grace and faith reside, fear will not be able to remain long. “If somebody had told you years ago that you would have passed through your last trouble, you would have said, “I will never be able to get through that.” But you have.” Because you have overcome your fear and gotten through your trial you have testimony, a story to tell, and a song to sing. Here is a word, then, if you are fearful in this moment, “I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Remember the victories over past battles. The Lord will get us through our present one as well. Fear not, the battle belongs to God. GiGi❤️
