“Courage Through Faith”
Scripture: Psalm 31:24

"Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord."

Devotion:
In moments of uncertainty or despair, we are often tempted to shrink back in fear or anxiety. Yet, Psalm 31:24 calls us to rise with courage. It assures us that when we place our hope in the Lord, He strengthens us in the midst of our trials. This verse doesn’t promise the absence of difficulty, but rather the presence of divine strength to endure. As we trust in God’s faithfulness, we find that courage is not our own doing but a gift He gives to those who wait upon Him.

Today, remember that courage is not the absence of fear, but the choice to trust in God’s promises despite the circumstances. Let your heart be strengthened, knowing that your hope in the Lord is never in vain. He is with you, and His power will sustain you through every trial.

Prayer:
Lord, we know fear does not come from You. Continue to give us the courage to face each day, each moment, each event knowing that as we trust in You, we believe You will bring us through and sustain us. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
