We fear the Coronavirus. We fear the end of the world. We fear war. Some of us fear what others think of us. We fear many things! But, there is such a thing as a healthy fear. This fear is what God gave us. It keeps us safe and honest. It is a trigger that keeps us from dangerous situations. There are different kinds of fear…fear of danger as I just mentioned, fear-or to be afraid and expect the worst, and reverential fear- to stand in awe of God Almighty.

God speaks to our fears daily. In Isaiah 41:10, God says, “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”

The phrase, “Fear not” is mentioned 365 times in the Bible! That’s one for every day of the year! Look them up…you’ll be amazed!

The Lord provided us fear as an emotion in nature to keep us from harm-a preservation instinct. But He never intended it to overwhelm you! Most of our fears are unfounded because we don’t trust the Lord to have control of every situation in our lives. We must place all our fears in His care for He understands and knows what is and what will come to pass. He has you in the palm of His hand!

I encourage you to have Godly fear-a reverent fear for WHO He is! But fear that pervades our lives in a negative way is something that God does not want us to continue to dwell in! We become ineffective for His use and we live our lives and settle for less than what God has for us! Get to KNOW Him in a personal way…then you will be able to discern the counterfeit!

LIVE IN THE LIGHT OF HIS PRESENCE AND THE DARKNESS WILL BE ULTIMATELY EXPOSED! GET FREE FROM FEAR TODAY! DON’T LIVE IN FEAR, BUT IN TRUTH AND LIGHT! AMEN!
