Be strong and of good courage part 3

 "Be strong and of good courage part 3"

Let us now talk about our final part of which will be based in the word dismayed but before that I would like us to take this moment to meditate in the following Bible verse.

"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes. I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10 NKVJ

(1) the meaning of do not be dismayed. It means that do not let anything to cause you to lose courage or resolution as because of an alarm of fear. 

(2) what does being be dismayed mean. To break down the courage of completely, as by sudden danger or trouble. 

Let me give you some example of things that can break our courage.

2.1.1 the pain of losing someone due  to death when that happen we eventually become afraid and ask ourselves questions like but why did this happen to me for no one wants to lose people that they love so when that happen it brings fear and it breaks our courage that's why God spoke to Joshua not to be afraid.

2.1.2 the other thing is when your employer tells you that you just lost your job that also brakes our inner strength so well when such things happen we should always put our trust in God and call upon him to assist us in matters like this.

(3) this is an example of dismayed. Is defined as sudden or total loss of courage. An example of dismay is feeling defeated after applying to dozens of jobs and being offered none of them.

(4) the formal definition of dismay is a strong feeling of Fear, wrong, or sickness that is caused by something unpleasant and unexpected.

(5) I will strengthen you. here God is saying I will make you stronger than your problems or your challenges difficulties you just need to stand firm and go forward. 

(6) to stand firm is to refuse to change a decision position and etc.

(7) I will help you means that making it easier or possible for someone to do something by offering them one's service or resources. 

(8) So you will also declare a thing and it will be established for you so light will shine on your ways." job 22 verse 28 NKJV

If you find this helpfully share with other people.
