Faith stands firm, but fear takes flight and runs away. We are letting fear rule us if we run from what God wants us to confront. When the Israelites were afraid of Pharaoh and his army, God told Moses to tell them to fear not; stand still…and see the salvation of the Lord…(Exodus 14:13 AMPC).
We will never see or experience God’s delivering power if we run from things in fear. Stand still and see what God will do for you. Trust Him, be thankful for His faithfulness, and give Him a chance to show His power and goodness to you.
When fear knocks on the door, send faith to answer. Don’t speak your fears; speak faith. Say what God would say in your situation—say what His Word says, not what you think or feel.
Prayer of the Day: Help me, Father, to stand firm when I feel anxious or afraid. I thank You that because You are with me, I have nothing to fear. Today, I will choose to stand firm rather than shrink back when I feel fear in my life.
