(Isaiah 44:8 NKJV)
We are living in extremely uncertain times and those who do not know God will not make it!
It is so easy to take our eyes off of Him and look at our circumstances!
Everything is vying for our attention! Everything is a crisis! Everything is suddenly!
World news, local news, doctors news! Nothing good! All bad!
All reports are meant to instill fear in you!
Fear will incapacitate you! It will isolate you! It robs you of peace and joy and can take all of your money! Fear will cause you to make bad decisions because it colors what you see and hear with dread! It says that your circumstances will never get better! They will only get worse! Always darkness; no light! Fear is out to kill you!
Fear projects the future just like faith, but in the negative!
You fear it; you speak it; it happens!
"For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, And what I dreaded has happened to me." (Job 3:25 NKJV)
Fear is sin!
Fear shows a lack of trust in God! It says to God, "You, God, are not great enough to handle my circumstances! You, God, are incapable of changing anything!"
Fear declares to The Creator of The Universe, "You have no power!"
Fear is a spirit, out of the pit of hell, whose sole purpose is to distract and paralyze you; rendering you ineffective for the work God has called you to do!
To be rid of fear requires repentance, not a drug!
Finding the root of that fear (the time of entry), repenting of the judgement, confessing and repenting of the circumstance that allowed its entry, is the only way to be free!
Repent of your actions that have accused God of being powerless! Humble yourself before God and acknowledge Him as The One True God!
When God is your God (and not the devil) you can walk fearlessly anywhere because He, God, has your back!
He has to be on your Throne; He has to be LORD! Not you!
Repent of your sins! Regain your focus and keep your eyes on the prize!
"while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal." (2 Corinthians 4:18 ASV)
"You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You." (Isaiah 26:3 NKJV)
You can have peace and live without fear, no matter what "it looks like", when HE is truly your LORD!
Even so - MARANATHA!
