Standing Firm in God’s Presence
"I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken."
-Psalm 16:8 ESV
To "set the Lord always before us" means making Him the foundation of our lives, seeking His presence in every decision, and trusting that He is walking beside us through every circumstance.
This verse is not just about avoiding hardships but about standing firm in the midst of them. The world may throw difficulties our way, but when God is at our right hand, we have an unshakable anchor. No storm is greater than His strength, and no fear is stronger than His presence. Whether in our work, relationships, or daily struggles, we can move forward with confidence, knowing that we are held by the One who never fails.
As you go through this week, remind yourself that God is always near. When doubts arise, choose to trust. When anxiety creeps in, fix your eyes on Him. With the Lord at your right hand, you can stand firm, unshaken by the trials of life.
Prayer:
Father, thank You for always being near. Help me to set You before me in all that I do, trusting that You are my strength and my foundation. When life feels uncertain, remind me that You are at my right hand, and I will not be shaken. Fill me with confidence, peace, and faith as I walk with You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
