A Prayer for the Discouraged - Your Daily Prayer

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

Discouragement is dangerous. It’s one of the greatest tactics of the enemy because discouragement ushers in doubt, and doubt makes us question our calling or, even worse, our faith. Discouragement stirs frustration and apathy. It whispers to our hearts that we aren’t good enough, nothing will ever change, or we heard God wrong. Discouragement strips our courage to continue, but our God is bigger than discouragement.
