Fear is one of the most powerful emotions we face—especially when it comes to death and loss. In this honest daily prayer and devotional, Vivian Bricker shares her journey of learning to trust God after losing her mother and struggling with the deep, ongoing fear of death. Her words remind us that while death is an unavoidable part of life, we don’t face it alone.

Through the promise of Isaiah 41:10, God calls us to release our fear and hold fast to His strength. He promises His presence, His help, and His upholding hand. When grief grips our hearts or anxiety clouds our thoughts, we can find comfort knowing that Jesus is with us—in life, in death, and forevermore.

This episode encourages us to surrender our fears to the One who conquered death and to rest in the hope of eternal reunion with those we love.

Today's Bible Reading:
“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” – Isaiah 41:10

Dear God,

Help me not to live in fear of death or of losing those I love. I know You are with me, You will strengthen me, and You will uphold me with Your righteous right hand. I give You my fears and ask You to fill me with Your peace. Remind me that You have conquered death and that one day, I will be reunited with You and my loved ones in Heaven.

Even when darkness surrounds me, help me to trust in Your light and love. Thank You for Your comfort and Your presence that never leaves me.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
