Deu 31:7 And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou must go with this people unto the land which the LORD hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it. Deu 31:8 And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
As God’s children, we can live confidently and courageously. Why? Because we have God. The Lord will be with you. He will not fail. He will not forsake. God will not call us where He cannot take us. God will not take us where He cannot keep us. We are safe with the Lord. Is there anything too difficult for the very living God of all creation? When the fear comes, go to the One who has promised to never leave us or forsake us. When you know the path God has chosen for you, start down that path confidently. When fears come, go to Him for your help and strength. Not only will God be with us, He will prepare the way. For God to go before us means that He knows already what the future holds. He knows and He has made provision. He has already fought and won the battles we will face. He has already made a path through the confusion we will encounter. He has broken down the impassable places we will come to. In these dark days, let’s live like we have a God who can be depended on.
