NO NEED TO FEAR

 

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." ESV 

 

This world is an anxious and fearful place. If we are honest with ourselves, we will admit that we have fear in our lives. We tend to get more discouraged while we watch the world getting more evil day by day. Remember, the great I AM is our God. We have the assurance and peace knowing He will give us the strength and help we need to be victorious in whatever we encounter. Our God is continually holding us up with His right hand, and interceding for us.

 

Lord, forgive us for allowing fear and discouragement to overtake us. Help us to clothe ourselves with faith and understanding. You are our God and You provide us with all we need to succeed in this earthly walk. We thank You for that. In Your name we pray, Amen.

WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT

 Acts 13:39 "And by Him everyone who believes is freed from everything from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses." ESV 

 

There is no way we can clean up our own sins and stand righteous before the Lord. The animal sacrifices of the Old Testament became just as useless after Jesus Christ gave Himself as the final sacrifice for our sins. We can stop trying to cover our tracks and let our faith in the blood of Christ do the cleaning up.

 

Heavenly Father, we trust in the great price You paid to save us from our sins. Give us grace to stop trying to get our acts together so we can come to Your throne without guilt. We believe by faith that we are righteous in Your eyes because of Jesus Christ. In His name we pray, Amen.

POWER PRAYING

  James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working." ESV 

 

We often take the precious gift of prayer for granted. We many times use prayer as a needs list for God to complete. Prayer is a powerful communion with Creator of the universe that allows us to bask in His presence, hear Him, and worship Him. It is the way to healing and forgiveness. If we are living right through the eyes of God, our prayers are immeasurably powerful.

 

Heavenly Father, You have shown us how to pray. Forgive us for neglecting this very source of our strength and closeness with You. Put within us the desire to commune with You at every level of our lives. We pray in the name of Jesus, Amen.

GET YOUR PITCHING ARM READY

 

 

Psalm 55:22

 

"Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved." ESV

 

We can literally throw our worries and concerns on the Lord with full confidence that He will protect us. He is ever faithful to those who have a heart of obedience and desire to please Him. As long as we live in the world, we will have trials and sufferings. But, we don't have to carry the burdens and fall under the pressure. We have total access to give them all over to the Lord and be free of the burden of worry.

 

Heavenly Father, we thank You and praise You for always opening Your arms to carry our worries and burdens for us. We give you honor for this freedom You give us to worship and glorify You before all people. May they be drawn to You as they see us rejoicing in You though we are plagued with troubles. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
