Fear Not, I Am With You

Fear Not, I Am With You

Main Scripture:
Isaiah 41:10 — “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God…”

Devotional

Fear is one of the enemy’s strongest weapons, but it is powerless in the presence of God. The command “Fear not” is not just an encouragement — it is a divine instruction backed by a divine promise: God’s presence.

God does not remove every battle, but He guarantees His presence in every battle. Courage is not the absence of fear; it is the awareness of God’s nearness in the midst of fear.

Many people fight fear by trying to be strong in themselves. But true courage is born when you stop depending on your own strength and start leaning on God’s strength. He promises:
• I am with you
• I will strengthen you
• I will help you
• I will uphold you

These are not emotional comforts; they are covenant realities. When God says He is with you, fear loses its legal right to stay.

Today, let fear bow to the awareness of divine presence. You are not alone. You are not abandoned. You are not fighting by yourself.

Additional Scripture Readings

  • Deuteronomy 31:6 — “Be strong and of good courage… He will not leave you nor forsake you.”
  • Psalm 27:1 — “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?”
  • Matthew 28:20 — “I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Reflection Questions

  1. What specific fears have been trying to dominate my thoughts?
  2. How does knowing that God is with me change how I should face those fears?
  3. In what areas of my life have I been acting as if I am alone?
  4. What would bold obedience look like if I fully trusted God’s presence?
  5. Where do I need to replace fear with faith today?

Prophetic Declarations

Speak boldly:

  1. “I refuse fear because the Lord is with me; I walk in divine courage.”
  2. “God strengthens me; I will not be dismayed.”
  3. “I am upheld by the righteous right hand of God.”
  4. “Every spirit of fear loses power over my life in Jesus’ name.”
  5. “I move forward boldly because heaven stands with me.”

Extended Prayer

Father, thank You for Your promise of presence. I surrender every fear that has tried to control me. Let the awareness of Your nearness strengthen my heart and steady my steps. I declare that fear will not have mastery over me because You are with me. Strengthen my faith, silence every anxious voice, and help me walk in bold obedience. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Practical Application 

  • Write down three fears you have been struggling with.
  • Next to each one, write: “God is with me.”
  • Speak your declarations aloud in the morning and before bed.

Manifestation of the Kingdom Within

  Manifestation of the Kingdom Within Scripture: “ Nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the kingdom of God is in your midst.” — Luke 17:21 Devotional The kingdom of God is more than external miracles, spectacular signs, or impressive events—it is a spiritual reality that dwells within the believer . When Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is within you,” He was emphasizing that kingdom life is demonstrated through the transformation of our hearts, thoughts, and daily actions. The true evidence of the kingdom is righteousness, peace, and joy (Romans 14:17). It manifests when we choose obedience over sin, forgiveness over bitterness, and love over pride. It is displayed in our attitudes, relationships, and every decision we make. Unlike external circumstances, the kingdom within is constant, resilient, and supernatural—it cannot be shaken by trials or opposition. Living with the kingdom within means walking in God’s authority, living in alignment with ...

Love is the Way

Love is the Way  Jesus said to him, ""You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets." Matt.22.37-40 Love is the summary of the Law and the entire scripture.  Where love abounds, laws and constitutions are useless.  Love is the fulfillment of the law.   - For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another! Gal.5.14-15 Love is a command. It is the Law and the commandment of God. It is not an option but a necessity.  No one can be part of God without love, because God Himself is Love.   - This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. These things I command you, that you love o...

He is Risen

Date: Easter Sunday – April 20, 2025 <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-8669748632238163"      crossorigin="anonymous"></script> Title: He Is Risen! Scripture: “ He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.” – Matthew 28:6 Devotional Thought: Easter morning dawned with the impossible made real: Jesus rose from the dead. The sealed tomb was broken open—not to let Jesus out, but to let the world in to witness victory. The silence of Saturday was shattered by resurrection power. Death lost its sting. The grave lost its hold. And hope came rushing back into the hearts of all who believed. The resurrection is not just an event—it’s a reality we live in . Because He lives, we have hope in suffering, strength in weakness, and assurance in uncertainty. It’s the foundation of our faith, the fuel for our mission, and the final word over sin and death. ...
