Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will surely help you; I will uphold you with My right hand of righteousness. ISA 41:10 BSB 

Doubt, worry, and fear are all wrong choices that Jesus tells us repeatedly to avoid. He knows the end from the beginning, and the victory is undoubtedly ours in Christ. 

The Christian walk is simple, childlike faith in God's promises. The more we trust our heavenly Father is one hundred percent for us and loves us unconditionally, the more peace we have. No miracles needed to change our life and walk in His peace, just a change in thinking that aligns with our Father's promises.

As Christians, we fight the good fight of faith, from victory, not for victory. The enemy cannot possibly win, so he tries to steal God's peace and power from us by tempting our thoughts towards doubt, worry, and fear. We can choose to resist his temptations by simply trusting our Father. 

Believe it or not, we are safe and sound in Christ. God is not angry with us, we do not need to earn our salvation, we are forgiven, and our Father loves us and will provide. When we place belief above doubt, His peace overwhelms us, and His love shed abroad in our heart overflows to all we meet.  

Without question, every promise, provision, and blessing are ours in Christ. A great inheritance awaits all who choose to believe and love God. By Jesus's one-time sacrifice for all sin for all time, the debt was paid in full. We have been totally forgiven, made righteous (right with God by Jesus one act of obedience), justified (just as if we had never sinned), sanctified, made holy, and have become Saints (set apart sanctified ones) in God's eyes. God sees us seated in Jesus at His right hand, a co-heir with Christ.

The choice is ours, believe Jesus all out and walk in His peace in the storm or believe the father of lies and walk in doubt, fear, and worry.  

I am choosing to believe Jesus no matter what may come. What about you?

Many more New Covenant Bible Studies HERE. Jesus poured out His blood for the New Covenant of grace and truth, replacing the Old Covenant law of Moses. Believers are exclusively under the New Covenant, the last will and testament of Jesus that began after the cross. 

And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood.” Luke 22:20

There were a couple of sentences that I had to read 2-3 times to grasp what you were trying to convey, but overall, the message is great!

Thanks for sharing.

"..we fight the good fight of faith, from victory, not for victory." Outstanding! If only we could all realize what we spiritually possess.
