Title: The Lord Is Our Confidence
Scripture:
'In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.'
Proverbs 14:26 (KJV)
True confidence is not found in ourselves, our plans, or our possessions. It is found in the fear of the Lord—a deep reverence and trust in who He is. When we walk in the fear of the Lord, we gain strong confidence, not because we are strong, but because He is.
This reverence leads us to trust in His Word, obey His commands, and rest in His promises. It draws us into a relationship where we are safe, secure, and confident in His care. His children—those who trust and follow Him—have a place of refuge. We are not left to wander alone or face life’s storms unprotected.
When we fear the Lord, we do not need to fear anything else. His presence becomes our peace, and His promises become our foundation.
Are you walking in the fear of the Lord today? Let it be your confidence and your refuge.
Prayer:
Lord, I choose to walk in the fear of You. Be my confidence and my refuge. Help me to trust in Your wisdom and rest in Your strength. In Jesus' name, Amen.
