in #steemchurch6 years ago

ISAIAH 41:10 AND 13.

"DO NOT BE AFRAID, BECAUSE I AM WITH YOU; DO NOT DESMAY, BECAUSE I AM YOUR GOD THAT I STRIVE YOU; ALWAYS HELP YOU, ALWAYS I WILL SUSTAIN YOU WITH THE DIESTRA OF MY JUSTICE. BECAUSE I JEHOVAH ARE YOUR GOD, WHO TAKES YOU FROM YOUR RIGHT HAND, AND TELLS YOU: DO NOT THINK, I HELP YOU ".

Beloved brothers and friends, I want you to set your eyes today on this beautiful promise that our creator has bestowed upon us for his mercy. Let's look at the good that God communicates to us in this passage. He tells us: do not be afraid, because I am with you, do not be discouraged, because I am your God who will give you effort; I will always help you, I will always support you with the right hand of my justice. And reiterate: do not fear, I help you. It is a key verse for you to discover that God speaks to you yesterday, today and forever.
We are surrounded by problems and difficulties that overwhelm us day after day and because of this there are times when we do not feel defeated and without strength. This is an invitation from God to never feel alone or helpless. God has been, is and will always be with you. And he tells you: do not fear. I am your helper. Jehovah is our help and our deliverer. David understood this very well and said: "Though afflicted I and needy, jehovah would think of me. My help and my liberator are you; My God, do not delay. "You trusted the promises of God and do not let yourself be intimidated by a defeated enemy.

Remember those words that the Bible says in 2 Timothy 1: 7 "because God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love and self-control" and in Luke 10:19 says: "Behold, I give you power to tread on snakes and scorpions, and on all the strength of the enemy, and nothing will harm you. " There are those who fight against the children of God And seek their destruction, do not return evil for evil, but wait for the time of God. Isaiah 41 11,12 says: "Behold, all who are angry with you will be ashamed and confused ; they will be like nothing and those who contend with you will perish. You will seek those who have contention with you, and you will not find it; they will be like nothing, and as a thing that is not, those who wage war against you "

The scripture says that those who are angry and war against the children of God will be ashamed, confused, they will be like nothing, they will perish, they will not be found and they will be like something that is not. If today you are going through some tribulation I tell you: Hold tightly on the hand of God and walk confidently in Him, the victory is sure, because He goes with you, He is your helper and your deliverer. We must not forget that God has promised to be with us. Wonderful to know that in times when you have problems and you are alone, hurt, hopeless and afraid. God is thinking about you, only that in many of the occasions you are not thinking about Him. Satan wants to disturb your peace and your courage by making you forget God. He knows perfectly well that all the children of God have been given authority and power against the whole kingdom of darkness.

Jesus Christ will give us victory in every situation of danger, and attack the enemy on our lives, attack our talents, gifts, envy to hurt you and remove our vision of God's purpose. Romans: 16,20 "... and the God of peace will soon crush satan under your feet ..."

In Isaiah's time, like today, there were many visible reasons that caused fear. The northern kingdom, Israel, had been eliminated by the Assyrian military might, and it seemed that Judah could not survive much longer. The people urgently needed a message of consolation and hope. Isaiah try to infuse encouragement and joy, and this is what I want through this message. Transmitirte that same spirit, so that you motivate yourself to get up and to trust in this powerful promise. For us, on this occasion, the text of Isaiah 41: 10 has a special ingredient, the presence of God. DO NOT THINK, I AM WITH YOU.

Fear has been part of our history from the beginning. For many thinkers, fear is the main cause for man not developing his skills. Fear is attributed to human defeat in every respect. However, fear is not a cause, rather it is a consequence caused by the true cause of all human problems. Fear is a consequence of sin (see Genesis 3: 8-10). Fear is an ally of our defeated enemy, and is the result of our ignorance of God, because when God is revealed to us, fear begins to escape from our life, the more we know about God, the less fear there will be, because we understand that the author of fear, is defeated, is defeated, annihilated, then we are not intimidated by someone we know has no power in the children of God. When God tells me NO THOUGHTS more than simply asking me not to let myself be intimidated by a defeated one, he is inviting me to know him more, to spend more time alone with him, to share with him, because his promise is "I am with you".

The natural consequence of fear is to faint, to faint, to stop trying, to see the bigger obstacles than they are. The Lord invites us to remember who He is. The God who can do everything. What is present Who knows everything. The God who is in control, who fills us with strength. The world is a battlefield, there are external struggles that oppress, diseases that weaken us, physical and emotional pain, material, spiritual and social needs. But the real war is inside, with our lack of faith. That is why Isaiah's wake-up call is through this promise, so that we can restore our life, because that is what God wants for us.

"Do not be dismayed because I am your God that I try hard"
If I want to have a life free of fear, full of joy, full confidence in the power of God, I must spend time to know God. The rediscovery of the majesty of God will accomplish great things in my spiritual life. It will be impossible to keep our attitudes healthy while our idea of ​​God is wrong. If we want to bring spiritual power back into our lives, we must begin to think of God in a way that comes closest to how He really is.

I will always help you.-

God accompanies each one of us, gives us the courage and help we need in the face of adverse situations in life. He will defend us and sustain us with his justice in front of those who want to harm us. It is necessary to highlight a word that gives you great relief: ALWAYS. This means that God will not only be at all times, in all places, and in all circumstances.

I will always sustain you

When we are in the midst of difficulties it is difficult to give control to God. Then when we doubt. We do not understand what happens, if we are doing everything right. We say "sir, but what happens". It is what comes to our mind. It is good that we understand that when God allows our world to collapse, it is because He is preparing to do something new in us. When he allows things to be destroyed around us, he wants me to recognize that I depend on him. I must learn to say, God is my sustenance. I depend on Him for everything. If I need food, He is bread from heaven. If I am sick, He has healing power. If I need money, "Mia is silver and Mine is gold" says jehovah. If I need company, he says "I'm with you"

With the right hand of my justice.

Finally, I want to meditate on the last line of the text. The right hand of my justice. The justice of God is a deep issue, difficult to understand because of limited human capacity. For us justice has a less personal connotation. We see it as a legal concept, and we do not attribute to it the personal element, so perceptible in revelation. Justice is a natural manifestation of God. It is difficult for us to understand how God is just and at the same time merciful. God's compassion flows from his goodness, and kindness without justice is not kindness. God forgives us, because it is good, but it could not be good if it were not fair. Human mercy, in God's sight, is injustice. True mercy pays the price, but human mercy is an atrophied mercy. We can feel happy, for what he has to sustain us is not human justice. It is the justice of God. It is the mercy of a just God, pious and loving.

When Isaiah wrote this message, the people of God needed encouragement. They were about to be attacked by the enemy, and the words of the prophet were of inspiration for the people. For us, thousands of years later, the same words remind us that we are not alone. May the wonderful presence of God manifest in our favor. God wants us to remember that we are his children, that we should not fear, that he will sustain us and that the guarantee of his promises is his eternal justice. That the security of his sustenance is anchored in his omnipotence.

In this opportunity God has an invitation for each one of us. We are afraid, we have pain, we have sadness, but the words of Jesus for us is: Do not be afraid, I am with you ... in Psalm 56 David, who knew very closely the fear in his life, left us a teaching: "On the day that I fear, I trusted you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust. I will not fear. What can man do to me? If God with me is. Joshua 1: 5 "No one can meet you in all the days of your life; As I was with Moses, I will be with you; I will not leave you, nor forsake you "what God promises he fulfills. That is why we should not let anything or anyone intimidate us, let alone someone whom Jesus Christ defeated in the work of the cross. Our enemy is a defeated adversary. Victory is ours. Jesus Christ is our refuge, our sustenance, our justice.

God bless you richly and powerfully!

Sort:  

How wonderful to know that in those moments when you have problems and you are alone, hurt, hopeless and afraid. GOD IS THINKING ABOUT YOU, only that in many of the occasions YOU ARE NOT THINKING ABOUT HIM. Satan wants to disturb your peace and your courage by making you forget God. He knows perfectly well that all the children of God have been given authority and power against the whole kingdom of darkness.

His word is expressed in Luke 10:19 "... Behold, I give you the power to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the strength of the enemy, and nothing will harm you ..." Tremendous word of power. NOTHING WILL DAMAGE YOU. Satan can never defeat you, because Christ has already overcome him.

Beautiful and detailed Ricci message, that touches my life have been so many times in which fear has wanted to paralyze me, but perfect love casts out fear, and that perfect love is Jesus, King of Glory.

This is an invitation from God to never feel alone or helpless. God has been, is and will always be with you. And he tells you: do not fear. I am your helper. He has said he will never leave us or forsake us that a promise to us, and He always keep his word

Jesus has won all battles for us on the cross. Poverty, sickness, death and every other hindrance has been defeated on the cross. We just have to claim that victory and walk in it!

Fear of course is the reason why most Christians will not be courageous enough to take decisions, that's why the bible referenced fear not in the bible in a whole lot of situations, if the children of Isreal kept living in their fear they wouldn't have gotten to the promise land, if Peter was afraid he wouldn't have walked on water, fear is an enemy that we must vanquish In other for us to move forward.

This is truly an inspiration from the Holy spirit to members of steemchurch we should never be discourage and intimidated by a defeated enemy because with Jesus on our side we are winners

Intimidation is defined as the act of making someone afraid. Our enemy does this so that we will be unable to live healthy, joyful Christian lives that are characterised by the freedom to do what is right and good and God-pleasing, as well as the calm confidence that says

I know God will never leave me nor forsake me." Our enemy knows that when we live in fear, we will never be able to live out the abundant, purposeful life that God has for us.

Thanks for sharing, God bless you.

Jesus promised that in this world we are sure to face troubles, but we shouldn't be afraid (or intimidated) because He has overcome the world (John 16:33). Instead, we should know that attacks and testings will come, and we should prepare for them.

The enemy shall always 🙇 be conquered in all the his straight will be dissolved for only those who trust in the lord.
Only those who trust in the lord will always win in all situations. Every body must die but only those who trust in the lord will live forever.
Our concern should always be focussed on the paths of the living God and it should be directed towards doing things for those who don't have.
God has given us power to always preach his word and follow his parts which will lead us to the parts of righteousness.
We should love our self .
We should extend our live to christ because he is always there to save us from all our weakness hr is the alpha and the omega .
Come to him any time you have sinned and fine contrary to his will .
He is always ready to accept you any time

Set your mind and heart on Jesus. Look to Him and not at your enemy. Protect yourself with the armor of God (Ephesians 6). Be diligent to
memorize Scripture and know what
is true.

You can defeat the enemy of your soul by not allowing him to confuse you and instead having faith in the Lord. An unshakeable faith isn’t one that is perfect, but rather one that is
placed on the unshakeable God.

Great message! This is so reassuring. God is always there for us whenever we go through pains. He has promised to uphold us and keep us safe. His words are yea and amen. The devil will try all he could to make us feel less, but if only we let him. God has not disappointed any one and it won't start with me.

Thank you for sharing and God bless you

In this life, we should never fear anyone, except God. And we should never ask prayer other than to God. Because no one is great in this world, except god. If we believe, and believe in our hearts to God, and have strong faith, God will always keep us day and night. The important thing is that we must always do all the divine commands, and keep all the prohibitions of God, whatever we are doing, God will always give his grace to us. God has promised to those who believe, God will give happiness in the world and in the future.Thank you... :)

victory belongs to God therefore we should remove every doubt and trust in the finished work of christ
In psalm 91 his promises are unfailing

1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. 3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. 4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. 5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; 6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. 7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. 8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. 9Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; 10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. 11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 12They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. 13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

We are victors irrespective of how many army have fallen. He that is in us is far greater than any other. Well done parishioner. This post is really awesome and has lots of moral.

Awesome message! This is so consoling. God is dependably there for us at whatever point we experience torments. He has guaranteed to maintain us and guard us. His words are yea and so be it. The villain will attempt everything he could to influence us to feel less, however in the event that lone we let him. God has not disillusioned any one and it won't begin with me

We must believe God and experience triumph before the enemy. We will see that great satisfaction is to say: "... Before, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us ..." Romans 8:37

Don't fear, have faith!

Great post
If we are of God ,Fear is not meant to dwell in our hearts.We are surrounded by problems and difficulties that overwhelm us day after day and because of this there are times when we do not feel defeated and without strength. This is an invitation from God to never feel alone or helpless. God has been, is and will always be with you.
Continue the good works.

The devil is always looking for a way to belittle our morale and make us feel unworthy. That's when we give him that chances. Guiding our imaginations and confessing positively always helps us overcome the intimidation of the enemy.

How glorious to understand that in those minutes when you have issues and you are far off from every other person, hurt, hopeless and on edge. GOD IS THINKING ABOUT YOU, only that in countless occasions YOU ARE NOT THINKING ABOUT HIM. Satan needs to bother your serenity and your quality by affecting you to disregard God. He knows faultlessly well that each one of the posterity of God have been given pro and power against the whole kingdom of dimness.

How magnificent to realize that in those minutes when you have issues and you are distant from everyone else, harmed, miserable and anxious. GOD IS THINKING ABOUT YOU, just that in a significant number of the events YOU ARE NOT THINKING ABOUT HIM. Satan needs to irritate your tranquility and your strength by influencing you to overlook God. He knows impeccably well that every one of the offspring of God have been given specialist and power against the entire kingdom of haziness.

His statement is communicated in Luke 10:19 "... See, I enable you to stomp on serpents and scorpions, and over all the quality of the adversary, and nothing will hurt you ..." Tremendous expression of energy. NOTHING WILL DAMAGE YOU. Satan can never vanquish you, since Christ has as of now conquer him.

God, our righteous judge and conqurer is always with us. We should not be afraid, dismayed, worry about what the devil throws at us because God had not forsaken us and He will never forsake us. Hallelujah!

wow great post thanks for sharing with us all

Beautiful and detailed Ricci message, that touches my life have been so many times in which fear has wanted to paralyze me, but perfect love casts out fear, and that perfect love is Jesus, King of Glory.

Excellent and itemized Ricci message, that touches my life have been such a large number of times in which fear has needed to incapacitate me, yet idealize love throws out dread, and that immaculate love is Jesus, King of Glory.

God who can do everything. What is available Who knows everything. The God who is in charge, who fills us with quality. The world is a combat zone, there are outside battles that abuse, maladies that debilitate us, physical and passionate torment, material, profound and social needs. However, the genuine war is inside, with our absence of confidence. That is the reason Isaiah's reminder is through this guarantee, so we can reestablish our life, since that is the thing that God needs for us. On the off chance that I need to have an existence free of dread, loaded with delight, full trust in the energy of God, I should invest time to know God. The rediscovery of the greatness of God will achieve extraordinary things in my otherworldly life. It will be difficult to keep our states of mind sound while our concept of ​​God isn't right.
