Let the Lord comfort you. It doesn't matter what is going on around you, if we look to the Lord and believe and trust what he says.
If we focus on what is going on in the world around us it can be easy to get overwhelmed with fear, doubt, and worry. Everywhere we turn, there is darkness. But if we are only looking for the darkness we won't see the light that is shining through and will consume the darkness.
Yes, the world is full of evil, and people trying to push evil plans. Bad things do happen, but we have to remember that God will never be defeated.
The word tells us that no weapon formed against us will prosper. Evil plans will not prevail. So we don't have to worry or be afraid because even when we don't see a way out, God is already parting the waters.
So let's focus on the truth God told us rather than what we see. Remember to look for God and how he is moving even more than you look at the circumstances in your life. Speak the truth over your situation and believe that God is working for you. Allow God to be your strength, comfort, and peace.
Prayer:
Lord we ask that you fill our hearts and our mind with things of you. Help us not to dwell on the things of the world and to trust that you will keep us safe. We ask that you fill us with your strength, peace, and comfort. Give us a desire to grow our knowledge of you and your word, so that we are equipped with the tools we need to fight fear and anxiety. We ask that you let your will be done in our life and help us to trust you and your timing, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
Verse:
When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.
