Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10
Each of us carry fears and anxieties—a heaviness in our chest, a dark cloud over our mind, or a weight upon our shoulders. In moments of uncertainty, we find ourselves overwhelmed, desperately trying to muster strength to handle everything alone. Our natural inclination is to face these challenges by ourselves; to turn away from God and proceed without support. But true relief comes only when we surrender our emotional burdens to Him.
Because even in our most anxious times, God’s divine presence remains unwavering. We receive not just comfort, but dynamic support. God promises to counter our negative emotions through four powerful assurances: His abiding presence with us, His personal relationship to us, His strength working through us, and His unwavering support beneath us. His ‘righteous right hand’ symbolizes His power, authority, and deep faithfulness, demonstrating His intimate love and care for both our emotional and practical needs. When we lean on God during difficult times, we hear His gentle reassurance: ‘Why worry, when I am next to you, leading the way?’
