Isaiah 43:1 But now, this is what the Lord says - he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.”
There is nothing more comforting than knowing you belong. Knowing you are loved, secure, cherished, wanted… All of this brings great peace and security. And when we have peace, we don’t fall victim to the anxieties of life.
This verse gives us one of the most amazing promises, directly from God. He has redeemed us and we are His. How amazing is that? We are His. His creations. His beloved. His chosen. His.
Why, then, do we let anxiety in? What can separate us from His love? Philippians tells us nothing can (Romans 8:39). Not height nor depth nor ANYTHING else. Not even those fears, worries, and nagging doubts and anxieties. We were bought at a price (1 Corinthians 6:20; 1 Corinthians 7:23) and have been adopted into the family of God (Galatians 4:5-6). We belong. And we are wanted. Take those thoughts captive (2 Corinthians 10:5) and cast your anxieties upon Him (1 Peter 5:7).
Think on that a few minutes. God, the creator of everything, the holy God, He who is worthy to be praised… He chose YOU. He called you by name. He redeemed you. He died for your sins so that you would forever be with Him. Forever.
If He does all of that, cares that much, don’t you think He can handle your anxieties? We are not promised a life free from trouble. We ARE promised that He will never leave us nor forsake us. He loves us too much to do that, so much that He died for us to prove His love for us.
Give Him your fear, your worry, your anxiety, and be free. He already ransomed you and redeemed you. Walk in that freedom today.
