Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong & courageous. Do not be frightened, & do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Deut 31:6 Be strong & courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you. Isaiah 41:13 For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, “Fear not, I am the one who helps you.” — Life is filled with issues that we deal with everyday! Many times this is where our God wants to demonstrate His Lordship over our lives & fight for us. Fear draws us away from Him. However, when we finally decide to trust Him & lay it at His feet, it is here where He begins to fight for us! Love Mel
