PRAYER JOURNAL 5/16/19
Isaiah 41:10 Fear not,
for I am with you, be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you,
yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous hand.
When you go to sleep with a prayer on your lips, don’t be
surprised when you wake with a song in your heart. Zephaniah 3:17 says, “The Lord will rejoice
over you with singing.” And Psalms
77:6 says “we will have a SONG in the night.” Many times God has put a SONG in my heart at
night as the answer to whatever I have been struggling.I woke early this morning with
♪♪ “Fear not for I am
with you; Fear not for I am with you; Fear not for I am with you, says the
Lord. I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; Child, you are Mine.” ♪♪
Isn’t God’s LOVE
AMAZING? He knows me; He understands
my language and He cares enough to speak to me in that language…a song.
We read in His Word that so many times the God says to His
people, “I am with you.” Or “I am the Lord your God;” constantly,
reassuring them of His love for them.
In Isaiah; in Jeremiah and in Haggai, God assures Israel, “I AM
WITH YOU.”
We read in Ezekiel and Hosea that even when Israel was backslidden
and following false worship, God was still there revealing Himself so His
people would finally see that “I am God; I am the Lord: the Holy One is in
your midst.”
As Joshua faced the monumental task of not only stepping
into Moses’ sandals but leading the Children of Israel into the Land that God
had promised, God says to him…
Joshua 1:5 No man shall
be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I WAS WITH MOSES, SO
I WILL BE WITH YOU. I will not leave you
or forsake you.
And finally in Matthew, Jesus assures His Disciples, “I am
WITH YOU always, even to the end of the age.”
Why do we doubt? Why do we worry? What is there to fear? If we are following the Spirit and walking in
our Purpose, Jesus says, “FEAR NOT; I AM
WITH YOU!”
So today, I CHOOSE TO
TRUST. While I am driving, You are
with me. On Friday and Saturday, when I
speak what you have poured in me; You are with me. Coming home; You will still be there for I
have Your promise that I NEVER have
to be without You by my side.
I believe that as You were with Moses, Joshua and the
Disciples, “YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE ME NOR FORSAKE ME.”
I WILL NOT FEAR
