COURAGE IN THE FACE OF FEAR (10)
TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: SUNDAY, 22 OCTOBER 2023
So, beloved, another bold and daring individual in the Bible who exhibited great courage and conquered his fear is Moses. Moses exhibited courage when he confronted Pharaoh, the most powerful ruler of his time, and demanded the release of the Israelite slaves. He faced numerous trials and obstacles, but with God’s guidance, he led the Israelites through the Red Sea and towards the Promised Land.
Bottom of FormSCRIPTURE: “For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord.” — Exodus 12:12 (NIV)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Moses’ story is one of obedience, leadership, and faith in God’s guidance. He played a pivotal role in the liberation and formation of the nation of Israel, and his life is celebrated as a symbol of God’s deliverance and the importance of faith, courage, and obedience to God’s commands. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: Moses trust in God helped him conquer his self-doubt and fear of speaking before Pharaoh.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, beloved, just like Moses, let us ask God for the grace to be courageous and obedient even in the face of fears.
PRAYER: O GOD, give us the grace to be bold and courageous, yet obedient, just like Moses, to face and overcome every difficulty in our lives, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
PROPHETIC WORD: As the Lord is helping us, may we be bold and courageous in the face of difficulties, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: Exodus 12:12
