September 3rd – Isaiah 41:13
Life is hard. We live in a broken world where we face battles, disappointments, heartache, temptation, and uncertainty. And Scripture reminds us that we also have an Enemy who prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. He wants us discouraged. He wants us afraid. And he wants us to believe that we’re fighting our battles all by ourselves.
But here is the beautiful truth for those who belong to Jesus. We don’t have to do life alone. God tells us in Isaiah 41:13, “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.”
How awesome is that! The God who created the heavens and the earth reaches down and takes hold of your hand. When your knees are shaking, He holds you. When you don’t know which way to turn, He leads you. And when you’re exhausted from the battle, He gives you strength to keep moving forward.
The Enemy may try to frighten, discourage, and convince us that we’re alone, but he can’t take us out of God’s hands. Because no one can remove us from the loving hands of our Father. So whatever you’re facing today, don’t try to carry it all by yourself. Reach out your hand and take hold of His. You may not know what tomorrow holds, but you can rest in knowing who holds you. And that’s our God, our Helper and our Strength.
