Isaiah 10-11, 2 Corinthians 12:11-21, Psalms 56:1-13, Proverbs 23:6-8
What God said to me – David said, “When I am afraid, I will put My trust in You. In God whose word I praise, in God I have put my trust, I shall not be afraid.” Notice the progression – David was afraid and he knew he shouldn’t be afraid because he knew Me and knew I had a plan I was working out in his life, so he paused and regrouped. He determined to trust Me in spite of the circumstances, in spite of his fear because he knew My word and trusted My plan. When you are afraid – when things are not going as you planned or hoped – follow David’s example. Stop and regroup. Reflect on My word. Reflect on who “I AM” and begin to praise My word and My promises and you will begin to trust that “I AM” with you and working out My plan for you, for your good and for My glory.
