Greetings š
Hereās my morning meditation. What can you glean from it? What promises can every Believer receive? God has used these passages to minister to my heart ā¤ļø
āBut you, Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, you descendants of Abraham my friend,
I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, āYou are my servantā; I have chosen you and have not rejected you.
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.
Though you search for your enemies, you will not find them. Those who wage war against you will be as nothing at all.
For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.ā
Isaiah 41: 8-12.

Has God ever surprised you by dropping just the right verses into your spirit during challenging times?
This passage has been such a lifeline for me: Isaiah 41:10-13 (ESV)
āfear not, for I am with you;
be not dismayed, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Behold, all who are incensed against you shall be put to shame and confounded; those who strive against you shall be as nothing and shall perish.
You shall seek those who contend with you, but you shall not find them;
those who war against you shall be as nothing at all.
For I, the Lord your God,
hold your right hand;
it is I who say to you, āFear not,
I am the one who helps you.āā
ā¼ļøThose who mess with Godās people have no idea what theyāre unleashing against themselves.

Here are some words for us to remember as we watch life unfold.
āPride goes before destruction,āØAnd a haughty spirit before a fall.
Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he.
The wise in heart will be called prudent, And sweetness of the lips increases learning.
Understanding is a wellspring of life to him who has it. But the correction of fools is folly.ā
Proverbs 16: 18-22 (NKJV).
How often have you watched this happen to yourself and others? Itās a reminder of how we ought to live.
Why are we surprised that the world hates us?
Didnāt Jesus tell His disciples what to expect when He sent them out?
Letās pause and let the verses below sink in!
āBehold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues.
You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.
But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak.
For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
āNow brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
And you will be hated by all for My nameās sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.ā
Matthew 10: 16-23 (NKJV).
