Jeremiah 1:8
“Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you”, declares the LORD.
The Lord spoke to Jeremiah to give him confidence. He assured Jeremiah that he would not be asked to do anything for which the Lord had not equipped him. The Lord also confirmed with Jeremiah that He would be protected from anything or anyone that tried to come against him.
Surely one of the most difficult lessons that we as believers ever learn is to trust in the Lord in all matters concerning our lives. Even though the Lord has promised His perfect provision and protection in our lives, we still struggle to live in the fullness of what He has declared. Sadly, it is a lesson that is probably not fully internalized even up to our death beds. In troubling times, we just do not allow ourselves to see past our circumstances to receive the grace that the Lord has for us. How much more joy would we have in life if we just simply put our complete trust in Him?
Prayer,
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the protection and provision that You promise us. We rejoice in Your unbreakable commitment to Your Word. We praise You for allowing us to live in Your grace. We pray, Lord, that You give us the courage to see past our circumstances and the wisdom to know that Your hand will be sufficient for all that we need. May we find the comfort and the joy that is available only through You.
