He will not leave you nor forsake you.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Observation: I continue to feel alone in my struggles and forget God is next to me.  He knows what I\u2019m going through and will never leave me, so why do I fear?  God never moves from me, it\u2019s me that moves away from Him.  I should never be down or depressed knowing that God knows where I am and what I need.  I should never be afraid and should be of good courage, because God gives me that courage and strength and all I need to do is ask for it.<\/p>\n<p>Application: As soon as I feel afraid or alone I need to spend time with God and feel His presence in my life.  He will direct me and all I need to do is ask.  I need to remember I\u2019m not alone, I\u2019m filled with the Holy Spirit and have been ordained by God to fulfill a purpose that He has given me.  I\u2019m God\u2019s servant and not a servant of my fears.  Nothing can harm me except what God allows and He loves me and will protect me.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer:  My Lord I\u2019m yours.  Thank you for always being by my side and protecting me from the enemy\u2019s attacks.  Help strengthen me and take this fear from me.  Open my eyes to all you desire of me and guide me through this life.  I want to come home to you hearing well done good and faithful servant help me accomplish that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture Deut 31:6 Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you.
