ReFocus | Isaiah 51:7 | I Am Secure

It’s not always easy to live out your faith in a world that doesn’t always understand it. Sometimes, just mentioning your relationship with God feels risky—like you’re opening yourself up to judgment or rejection. But Isaiah 51:7 is a reminder that your identity isn’t rooted in what others think. It’s anchored in what God knows. He’s the One who sees your heart, calls you His, and says you are secure—no matter what anyone else might say. “Hear me, you who know what is right, you people who have taken my instruction to heart: Do not fear the reproach of mere mortals or be terrified by their insults." Isaiah 51:7
