Face Fear With Faith
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.—Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)
There is a wide-open door for a great work here, although many oppose me.—1 Corinthians 16:9 (NLT)
Has God closed a door in your life? Perhaps it’s something you weren’t prepared for and feel out of sorts. Pray and tell God about your disappointment. Ask Him to help you wait patiently and trust that another opportunity is on the horizon.
Dear God, help me to see the closed doors in life as Your will, and give me the faith to believe that You have more perfect doors opening ahead.
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.—Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.—2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)
The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy.—Proverbs 12:22 (NIV)
