Courage for All Situations
from Kerusso Daily Devotional Hosted by Kerusso
Do you like scary movies? Is an evening spent looking through your fingers appealing to you? It is to a lot of people. Some of us really like to be scared! But hopefully, that doesn’t translate to real life. Screaming in a dark theater can actually be fun, but you don’t want to live a life of fear. Psalm 23:4 tells us, “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” To be blunt about it, God made us to be fearless. Single mom? A leader under siege? Maybe your situation is something else entirely. But whatever environment you find yourself in, know that God is not about His children being afraid. He gave us a choice, as Psalm 23 tells us. For thousands of years, people have recited that verse while in a tough spot. David wrote it when his life was in serious danger. The words fit all situations and lifestyles and times in history. You are not alone. God will come through for you. Tell Him today that you need His strength. Don’t be afraid to do that. Let’s pray. Lord, keep us from fear. Keep us focused on your eternal strength and safety. In Jesus’ name, amen.
