Fearless by Faith!
Devotion by Pastor Shane - November 20, 2025

Strength & Courage — Isaiah 41:10
"Fear thou not; for I am with thee… I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."
Fear whispers deceptive lies, while God speaks unwavering truth. When worry surges and courage begins to wane, Isaiah 41:10 reminds us that we are never alone in our struggles. God does not command us to "Fear not" without also providing the reassuring reason: "For I am with thee." This promise is a powerful source of comfort.
Strength flows from His presence, while help comes from His mighty hand. Courage blossoms from the promises He has made. Because He is with us, we can confront what once terrified us. Because He strengthens us, we can attempt what once seemed intimidating. Because He upholds us, we can endure what once felt overwhelming.
Your strength does not stem from your own abilities but from His constant availability. Your courage is not rooted in your self-confidence, but in His unwavering companionship. God is not distant—He is present. He is not passive—He is actively working in our lives. He is not merely observing; He is engaged in our struggles.
Stand firm today, knowing that you are upheld by the right hand of the Almighty. This assurance can empower you to face any challenge that comes your way, with faith that transforms fear into courage.
Prayer:
Father, thank You for being near. Strengthen my heart, steady my mind, and empower my steps. Remove fear and fill me with faith as I trust in Your presence and power. In Jesus' name, Amen.
