Overcoming Doubt and Fear (Daily Devo 01/22)

Isaiah 41:10 (KJV)
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”

We all face moments of doubt and fear. Whether it’s uncertainty about the future, worry over loved ones, or anxiety about life’s challenges, these feelings can feel overwhelming.
But Isaiah 41:10 reminds us that we are never alone. God is with us, strengthening us, and helping us each step of the way.

Doubt often comes from looking at our circumstances instead of looking at God. Fear creeps in when we focus on what we can’t control. Both are natural human responses, but they’re also opportunities to lean on God. We must always remember that fear and doubt does not come from God. They’re tools the enemy uses to shake our faith. 

Fear grows when we forget who God is, while peace comes when we remember who God is.

God calls us to trust Him, even when we can’t see the outcome. Trust isn’t about understanding, it’s about believing that God is good, faithful, and in control. When we surrender our doubts and fears to God, He directs our paths and fills us with His peace. You don’t have to understand everything to trust God with everything.

No matter what you’re facing, He is with you, fighting for you, and working everything for your good. We must remember that faith isn't the absence of fear. It's trusting that God will guide you through it. Amen!
