Again the one who looked like a man touched me and gave me strength. "Do not be afraid, you who are highly esteemed,” he said. “Peace! Be strong now; be strong.” Daniel 10:18-19
God's message to Daniel is to be strong! God held Daniel in high regard or esteem. God didn't just tell Daniel to suck it up and be strong though! Instead, He literally touched Daniel and gave him strength while telling him to not be afraid! He will do the same for us, too.
I know many will say, but Daniel was special. God esteemed him! I'm just a sinner. A man or woman that's barely qualified to be called a Christian. That thought process is wrong! You are HIGHLY ESTEEMED! You are so esteemed and loved, Jesus died for you! If you were the only person on the earth, he would have died for you! God loves you and wants all of us to be strong and without fear. Let's humble ourselves and look to Him for our strength!
Join me in reading Daniel 10 and be encouraged!
