Do not be afraid, Jacob my servant, for I am with you,” declares the Lord. “Though I completely destroy all the nations among which I scatter you, I will not completely destroy you. I will discipline you but only in due measure; I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”

On all the roofs in Moab and in the public squares there is nothing but mourning, for I have broken Moab like a jar that no one wants,” declares the Lord.

Lord God my Father,

Keep fear at bay for me and give me the confidence to carry your will as you desire. Discipline me as you see fit and shape me into your design and away from my worldly desires. I deserve your wrath and am willing to suffer it for it gives me the strength and wisdom I need to get unstuck in my ways. Break me so I may be restored to your design.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
