Overcoming Fear with Faith in God’s Promises
360 words, 2 minutes read time.
Scripture:
“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.” — Isaiah 41:10 (ESV)
Devotional:
Fear is something we all experience. Whether it’s fear of the future, fear of failure, or fear of the unknown, it has a way of creeping into our hearts and stealing our peace. But as followers of Christ, we are not called to live in fear—we are called to live by faith.
Throughout Scripture, God repeatedly tells His people, “Do not fear.” But He doesn’t just tell us not to be afraid—He gives us a reason why. He promises His presence, His strength, and His help. When fear grips our hearts, we must remember that we are never alone. The same God who parted the Red Sea, shut the mouths of lions, and walked on water is the One who holds us in His hands.
Faith doesn’t mean we won’t feel afraid, but it means we trust God more than our fears. It means believing that His promises are greater than our anxieties. When fear whispers lies, we need to combat it with truth: God is with me. He will never leave me. He will uphold me.
Reflection:
Prayer:
Lord, I confess that fear sometimes overwhelms me. But today, I choose to trust You. Thank You for Your promises that remind me I am never alone. Strengthen my faith, and help me to rest in the truth that You are with me, upholding me every step of the way. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
