Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV) 10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’
These words were originally spoken and written by the prophet Isaiah to the people of Israel.
They were part of Isaiah’s prophecies regarding the impending captivity of Judah at the hands of the Babylonians, although that would not happen for several more decades.
God was assuring them that He was with them, no matter what may come their way.
His reassurances were specific, not just vague and indistinct. He told them that He would strengthen them, help them and uphold them with His righteous right hand.
The fact that He specifically mentions that He will strengthen them signifies that they will need His strength to get through the struggles they will face.
This is significant. And we need to know that, because God doesn’t change, He is here today for each of us, just as He was for the Israelites.
Malachi 3:6 (NKJV) 6 “For I am the Lord, I do not change; Therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.
He will walk us through the changes that we’re facing in the world today, right this moment.
I don’t know about you, but with the world as upside down as it is right now, this brings me great comfort and strength.
Let us all lean on Him and listen for the voice of the Holy Spirit as we navigate these days that we live in, trusting that He will strengthen us, help us and uphold us with His righteous right hand.
Amen.
