Courage and Strength

Promise of the Day:
Only be thou strong and very courageous. (Joshua 1:7)

Prayer:
Dear Lord, I can be strong and courageous, but only through You. Ephesians 6:11, 14-17 tells me how to be strong, and that is by putting on the whole armour of God. This consists of the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the shield of Faith, the belt of truth, Sword of the Spirit (Your Word), and my feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of Peace. You not only tell me to be courageous, but You provide me with the means to protect myself. I have a choice. I can quail in fear, or go forth in courage, praising You for Your care and provision. I can do all things through You who strengthens me. Amen
Thank you, Lord.
