PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS, CHURCH AND NATION:
Fear nothing; follow God faithfully (Isa 51:1–8). #FearGodAlone #FollowFaithfully https://bible.com/bible/116/isa.51.7-8.NLT

MORNING WATCH NOTES:
What an assuring word is here given to all the faithful remnant – God shields those who trust in him no matter what men may think (vv7,8). GOD SAYS:
1) Remember where you came from – the story of a humble faithful beginning; becoming a strong nation (v2,3).
2) Know that your faithfulness is not lost on a pagan oppressor or a wayward nation – you will know my comfort, my fortification (v3).
3) Continue to hope in God alone. Hope is in his law, his justice, his mercy, his salvation and his mighty powerful strong arm (vv4–6).
4) Do not fear, I am with you (vv7,8).
Lord you stand with the faithful. You are a SHIELD against the oppressor.
