\u201cThis Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Zechariah 8:9<\/b>\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0Thus says the LORD of hosts: \u201cLet your hands be strong, you who in these days have been hearing these words from the mouth of the prophets who were present on the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built.<\/p>\n

Joshua 1:6<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.<\/p>\n

1 Chronicles 22:13<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Then you will prosper if you are careful to observe the statutes and the rules that the LORD commanded Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Fear not; do not be dismayed<\/p>\n

1 Chronicles 28:20<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Then David said to Solomon his son, \u201cBe strong and courageous and do it. Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed, for the LORD God, even my God, is with you. He will not leave you or forsake you, until all the work for the service of the house of the LORD is finished.<\/p>\n

Isaiah 35:4<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Say to those who have an anxious heart, \u201cBe strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Haggai 2:4<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, declares the LORD. Be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land, declares the LORD. Work, for I am with you, declares the LORD of hosts,\u00a0\u00a0according to the covenant that I made with you when you came out of Egypt. My Spirit remains in your midst. Fear not.<\/p>\n

Ephesians 6:10<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.<\/p>\n

Being strong in the Lord requires us to have faith. \u00a0To not have Fear requires us to have faith. To be courageous requires us to have faith. Doing what the Lord would have us do requires us to rely in, cling to and trust in Him. \u00a0No matter what our circumstance is God is bigger. \u00a0No matter how big the problem is God is bigger. \u00a0No matter how tough the situation is God is mightier. \u00a0Our God reigns. \u00a0Think about what is in this verse from\u00a0Jeremiah 29:11\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.<\/span>Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you.<\/span>\u00a0You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.<\/span>\u00a0I will be found by you, declares the LORD, <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
