Day 5 – No fear in Your presence!

Exodus 14:13 “Then Moses said to the people, Do not be afraid! Take your stand [be firm and confident and undismayed] and see the salvation of the Lord which He will accomplish for you today; for those Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see again.”            

In Isaiah 41:10, we find this promise and command, which confirms what Moses told his people: “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.”

The Red Sea obeyed this Presence, opening to save the Israelites and closing again to destroy the enemy. God promised Moses that not only would His presence accompany them, but it would also be to the whole nation a warm, protective fire by night and a pillar cloud by day that offered direction when they moved, and cool shade from the desert sun to rest under.

Friend, whatever it is that you are going through, know that God is with you. And in His presence, we can take comfort, because His promises are still relevant to us today: I will strengthen you. I will help you. I uphold you with My righteous right hand.

The presence of God.

Prayer:  Holy Father, thank you for Your promises that never fail. How they comfort me! I declare that I will not fear the outcome of my situation. I choose to believe that You are with me and that You hold me safely from the onslaughts of the enemy. Amen.
