Get Established and Rise Up

Listen to the Audio

God has given us a covenant of steadfast love. He established it and made the covenant commitment to do good for us all the time, but it must be established in our hearts. To be established means to be firm, fixed, and steadfast. One of the best ways to get his steadfast love established in our hearts is by meditating on his word.

A great passage of scripture on being established in our hearts is found in Psalm 112:7-8

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord. 8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he sees his desire upon his enemies.

When we understand God's steadfast unfailing love for us it drives out all fear and causes faith to rise up in us. Isaiah 60:1 AMP says...

“Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord]; for your light has come,
And the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you.

Jesus often told people to arise, stand up, or get up. Understanding God's covenant of love and getting it established in our hearts causes fear to melt away and faith to rises up in us.
