Summary: Lets remember who is in charge of our lives.
I AM WITH YOU
Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Deuteronomy 31:8
And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
We as Christians need to quit fretting and start claiming what God has for us ,first things first we must understand who is in charge here.
1. As the captain I will lead
Josh. 5: 14And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my Lord unto his servant?
2. As your shepherd I will tend you
Psalms 23: 4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
3. As your companion I will cheer your
Hebrews 13: 5Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
6So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
4. As your guide I will direct you
Isaiah 30 21And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
5. As the power I will keep you
Isaiah 40: 13Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
6. As your teacher I will instruct you
Luke 24: 32And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
7. Let me stimulate and be your encourager
Isaiah 40: 10Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.
