“…so do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand…” Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV)

Sometimes in life, the devil brings all sorts of discouragement into your life to make you believe you are a worthless burden. He does everything to give you a wrong picture of yourself, and convince you that you have nothing. But you must learn to shrug his thoughts off and hold onto God’s thoughts towards you. Because no matter what you face or go through, God believes in you and wants the best for you. That’s why He said, “do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand…” Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV). Did you see that? If God didn’t believe in you, there is no way He would want to strengthen you or help you. So I encourage you to take this truth seriously and know that God believes in you.

People around you might believe otherwise, your family members might also believe otherwise, but you stay focused on God’s word concerning you. Now, the question is, why is this important? It’s simple. When you know that God believes in you, it boosts your confidence in yourself and in your life generally. This enhances your perspective about your life and helps you to put in the required efforts that will bring the best out of you. Many in the past have become depressed and even went as far as committing suicide because all their lives they thought nobody believed in them. They felt all alone, so the zeal to keep pressing on depleted in them. However, your own case should be different. Keep your focus on God’s view about you. That is what counts and no matter the odds, refuse to accept other people’s negative view about you. Because really, their views don’t count. God loves you; He believes in you and wants the best for you. It was the same reason that made Him send His Son Jesus Christ to come take your place and pay the ultimate price. If He could do that as a demonstration of His love for you, then rest assured that your future is settled and secure. Hallelujah!
