Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. - Isaiah 41:10
I always get inspire whenever I remember King David on the bible. Imagine, he was just a small boy who pursues to defeat that kind of giant, Goliath. At the first place, he wouldn't be proclaimed as the king without fighting over his fears and made Goliath fell flat on the ground. I mean, where do you think his strength came from? He just uses stones to hit his opponent. Do you ever think how powerful that was? Well, that was not just by luck. He rivals with Goliath with his strong faith with Someone he believes who will save him. Though some Philistines soldiers got the urge to discourage him, he doesn't take those things seriously for him to give up. He believes that in the middle of that fight, HIS GOD will save him and the whole Israelite tribe. His faith is surreal. He even neglected the gears and weapon that King Saul tried to encourage him wearing. Instead, he said that he had his weapons. And that is God. It can't be seen, though, but it creates a huge impact more than a catapult of grenade.
That's the same in our lives. Sometimes we are hit by discouragements and stuff. Instead, we'll finish the race of our faith, most of the time we roll ourselves in curl and give up which we shouldn't do. The enemy may get you and would do everything he can to hit you so hard. But REMEMBER: he can't read your thoughts, unlike God. That's more an advantage for us Christians. So, you can control yourself still. The enemy won't get you very far if you wear your gears and weapons up spiritually. Never ever believe his lies that you can't get through life because you can. GOD CAN. With His help. Make King David as an inspiration. You can easily slap the enemy so hard by reading God's words and claim it the time he's urging you to give up your life. You are already victorious after Jesus died on the cross and make Him as your best friend and eternal savior. Now, don't worry at all. Whatever things you're heading now, or what things you currently experiencing, stay in FAITH and let God take over your fears. Remember there is no fear in love. Just remember He super duper love you more than you ever loved yourself before.
See? Don't be discouraged. You'll win the battle. God assures that. The end will be worth it, through it all. If some popular artists over there are being encouraged by their over-supportive fans, you have too dear, and that is GOD. He's been there through thick and thin, through happiness and sadness. He's your greatest encourager. 🙌
Prayer:
Lord, thank you so much for reminding me that you're here when discouragement strikes. Sorry for I am being so faithless most of the time. Remind me of your love, power, and sovereignty. Help me to believe that whatever I am facing now, it's under on your plan. Help me to have a burning faith for you to get me through this. Thank you for the Victory. In Jesus name Amen. 💓
