Isaiah 43:1-2 I Will Be With Thee

Isaiah 43:1-2 (KJV)  But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.  2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 

To the redeemed, our LORD bids them to courage. Fear not!

There shall no hostile environment, fiery furnace that the LORD cannot protect His people. They are safe under His care.

Let His people therefore understand His presence and find comfort and strength to live for His glory. He shall be with His people alway. Amen.
