Don’t be Terrified


“Then I said to you, ‘Do not be terrified, or afraid of them. ‘The LORD your God, who goes before you, He will fight for you, according to all He did for you in Egypt before your eyes, ‘and in the wilderness where you saw how the LORD your God carried you, as a man carries his son, in all the way that you went until you came to this place.’ Deuteronomy 1: 29-31

Moses was speaking to the children of Israel as they were ready to cross over into the Promised Land. 
He reminds them of the reasons that they need not be afraid. 
1) He reminds them of what God has done for them in the past to protect them
2) He reminds them that the Lord carries them as a man carries his son. 
The goodness of God in your past will continue into your future because our God is the same yesterday, today and forever. 
What has God brought you through all ready? 
Rest assured He is able and willing to do it again in your life.
What a picture of God, as a man carrying His son; such a picture of protection but also gentleness and care.
God doesn’t just carry you haphazardly – He cares you with intention and gentleness. 
He has brought you to where you are today and He will continue to cradle you in His arms for the remainder of the journey. 
Are you facing something today? 
Be reminded of the faithfulness and loving arms of our Heavenly Father that have brought you this far. 
You will go forth in victory!
