AND I WILL NOT FEAR.

                                   
                                      AND I WILL NOT FEAR
A song says because He lives I can face tomorrow, because he lives all my fears are gone. Because he holds my future. Our Redeemer liveth. He is the same yesterday, and today and forever. Many a time the devil uses the tool fear to steal people’s confidence. When there is fear, your confidence disappears. When there is fear the future is not bright it is bleak. Fear is a strong tool in the hand of the devil. Fear is a strong, uncontrollable, unpleasant emotion caused by perceived danger or threat. Philippians 2 vs. 12: Therefore, my dear ones, as you have always obeyed (my suggestions), so now, not only ( with the enthusiasm you would show) in my presence but much more because I am absent, work out (cultivate, carry out to the goal, and fully complete) your own salvation with reverence and awe and trembling (self- distrust, with serious caution, tenderness of conscience, watchfulness against temptation, timidly shrinking from whatever might offend GOD and discredit the name of CHRIST). The devil is a threat to our salvation that is why the bible says workout your salvation with fear and trembling. The bible says for GOD has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and sound mind. Fear is not of GOD, it is caused by the devil. Many have been killed by threats from their enemies. When one is frightened on an issue he is on the verge of losing. You shouldn’t fear because you are fearfully and wonderfully made by GOD.

          Furthermore, David knew he was fearfully and wonderfully made that is why he was fearless. He was bold like a lion. He said in Psalm 27 vs. 1-3: The LORD is my light and salvation, whom shall I fear, the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumble and fell. Though a host should encamp against me, in this will I be confident. I love these verses of the bible, as a child of GOD you shouldn’t be afraid, because the LORD is your light and salvation. The wicked (the devil) will always come to sow tares among the wheat, but we should be rest assured because they will not prevail. Confidence is expedient. Hebrews 13 vs. 6: So that we may boldly say, “The LORD is my helper and I will not fear what man shall do unto me”. There are enemies in form of men around and within us, we shouldn’t be afraid of their threat, because they are empty since greater is HE that is in us, than he that is in the world. It is well with us!!!

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...

HE THAT COVERS

HE THAT COVERS To cover is to hide and to conceal. A man cannot be wiser than his Maker or Creator. GOD is our Maker; He molded us and formed us into what we are. He is the Potter, we are the clay. Jeremiah 18 vs. 6: O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? Says the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the Potter’s hand, so are you in my hand O house of Israel. GOD sees all and His foolishness is wiser than man’s strength. 1 Corinthians 1 vs. 25: Because the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men, and the weakness of GOD is stronger than men. A man that covers his sins prospers not; but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Proverbs 28 vs. 13: Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Cain was a tiller of the ground; Abel was his brother and was a keeper of sheep. Cain brought fruits of the soil as an offering to GOD, Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat; which the...

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...
