Precious Promises – Day 10 SGLY Ministry

Today’s Promise: FEAR
For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, "Do not fear, I will help you.”
Isaiah 41:13 (NIV)

Today’s Thought:
“FEAR NOT, for I am with you ”God says in Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV)

God says “Do not fear” many times in His word and He often tells us that we should not be afraid for He is always with us. Our job is to believe it!
So, the next time we feel fear rising up in us here are some scriptures we can use to remind ourselves that we should not fear anything for the Lord with with us.

The Lord is my light and my salvation whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1 (NIV)

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me… Psalm 23:4 (NIV)

“God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind.”
2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)

Today’s Prayer:
Dear God,
Your word says You have not given me a spirit of fear, but You have given me Your Spirit of power who dwells with in me. I believe it.
So when fear begins to come upon me or I start feeling overwhelmed or all alone, I will remember Your promises, and I will choose to trust in You instead of allowing fear or negative thoughts to control me.
Thank You God, for always being with me and for helping me.
Each day I will remember that You are my light and my salvation and that I have nothing to fear for You are always with me.

Accepted Not Rejected

Thought for the Day

"There are times when you feel rejected and alone. These feelings can build up until you begin to truly believe them and really start to feel down. You are never alone. God has made you a promise: He would never leave you or forsake you (Heb 13:5). God IS with you all of the time. You just need to learn to recognize Him working in your life."

Today's Word

"At my first defense, no one came to my support, but everyone deserted me. May it not be held against them. But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was delivered from the lion's mouth." (2 Timothy 4:16-17 NIV)

Today's Prayer

Heavenly Father, at times I feel so alone. It seems as if friends have drawn away and nothing is going right. It is during these times that I need to remember that You are always with me and my troubles are only temporary. I need to try to remember to try to take the emotion out of my view and look objectively at my situation. Sometimes, I get myself so worked up that I make things seem worse than they really are. I know if I am patient and continue to with You, this storm will eventually subside. Amen.

Say No to Worry by Joyce Meyer

Worrying about things that we can’t control causes so much stress in our lives and for what? Sometimes the best thing we can do is to just let it go. In Psalms God tells us to “…be still and know that I am God.” So…just relax. God is in control, even when things feel like they are out of control. Make sure you are doing what God is telling you to do, and then be still. Sometimes God is waiting for us to STOP so that He can START.

This Week's Scripture: Let be and be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth! Psalm 46:10

Tip from Joyce: “We can choose to believe God’s promises and expect something good to happen, or not to believe—but I highly recommend believing. It has always proven to be the best way to live!” – Joyce Meyer

Philippians 4:6 'Do not be anxious about anything...'

- Life surrounds us with many reasons to be anxious and concerned.
- The Lord tells us that we should not be anxious.
- Anxiety and distress is not part of His plan for your life.
- Give the worries and concerns to Him, and live believing that He will undertake.

PRAYER: Lord, I bring all the issues that concern me and bring anxiety into my life, and I give them to You right now. I choose to trust You and I will not entertain anxiety, fear or doubt. Amen.

Kind Regards
