About this Episode
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read out of Deuteronomy 31:8 which says "The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
"This verse also talks about discouragement. Fear and discouragement are two horns on the same bull. It is why these two words are found together verse after verse.
When you become discouraged, it really takes a toll on your emotional health. It's hard to see the light. Discouragement is essentially loss of hope. When the enemy steals our hope, that is when he has us.
This can be said in our personal lives, as well as in our nations, and our globe. We cannot become discouraged by what we see happening around us. The same way God promises he goes before us, and that he will be with us. He will do the same for our nations, for our globe.
Do not fear, instead, submit your worries, your discouragements, and your destructive habits to God. Let him fix it for you. Stop opening doors that were not intended for you. Instead, wait on Him. If He goes before us, it means all we have to do is follow Him. "
