ISAIAH 43:1-3 NKJ
1 . . ."Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.
3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; . . .
ISAIAH 41:10 NKJ
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.'

Fear Not! What wonderful words, to live without fear. We have a promise from our Father and Lord that no matter what we are going through, we need not fear. We will go through, we won’t get stuck, we won’t be overcome, and we won’t be burned. Many times when we have been hurt we say we have been burnt, yet in His Word He says that when we go through fire we will come through without being burned or scorched. He is your Lord, He will strengthen you, He will help you, and He will uphold you with His righteous right hand. Whatever you may be going through, it will not stay. Rest in Him, rest in His Presence as He is your Redeemer and you belong to Him.
