MAN MADE
It's overstatement and laughable to hear some people brag about the people they made or anointed for success.
This is excessively credulous, and one of the main heresies wreaking havoc even among the Christians.
The question is, Are you man made or God made?
The idea of self-made is to suppress the truth of deity of Christ as the author and finisher. It's alteration of the plan of God when we assert to have made someone becoming whatever.
"In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will. Ephesians 1:11.
We undermine the gift and work of grace in our individual life whenever we believe the political statement of godfatherism that vaunted to have made someone to attain a certain height in life.
Christ makes that which has been made. He brings into existence whatever exists. His name is Yahweh which He has chosen to be remembered forever throughout all generations. Exodus 3:13-15
Everything we need for physical and spiritual growth including our salvation is only found in Christ and have already been given fullness in Him because in Christ the mysteries and secret things of God are revealed. The mystery of grace for salvation by the will of God was made known what are the riches of the glory among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Colossians 1:27.
This means there's no any other name or means one can be made or saved except through Jesus Christ. All things are done according to God's plan and decision. God had chosen to save us, and make us what we're in His Son Jesus Christ based on what he had purpose from the very beginning. The exclusive nature of the only path to salvation is expressed in “I am the way, the truth, and the life. John 14:6.
We can never find the true way in a man, and such mortal man has no ability of making anyone.
Peter and Thomas speaking on behalf of the other disciples told Jesus to show them the way was an indication that nobody truly knows the way except Jesus. John 13:33, 36 & 14:1 - 5.
Jesus is the only path to heaven, the only true measure of righteousness, and the source of both physical and spiritual life. Every other ways are mischievous and destructive. Noone can make you without Christ.
`Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” Acts 4:12.
We understand from the Bible is only by the dwelling in Christ and His love do we have eternal significance and can reap eternal rewards. Without Christ, we can do nothing of eternal significance.
Paul says, "By the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 1 Corinthians 15:10.
Christians must have Christ living in them in order to overcome sin and other life deficiencies. Christ is the vine and we're the branches. The branches cannot do anything without being connected to the vine. They would die from being cut off from their source of nourishment and strength. We're made and fulfilled in Christ not on those mortals playing godfatherism.
The context of making people is soul winning.
Jesus says, "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. Mathew 28:19 - 20.
Leading people to Christ and feeding their famished souls with the bread of life which is the word of God is making people becoming the people God wants them to be. A wise man is a soul winner. Proverbs 11:30.
So, how can you win someone to Christ without grace? Without Christ you can do nothing!
We don't need to brag of having made someone, but rather rejoice in the grace of our salvation. You cannot make a man if yourself wasn't made. Man by nature is blind because of sin and doesn't know the way of life.
Jesus asks, "Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch? A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher. Luke 6:39 - 40.
Salvation is grace through faith in Christ.
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:8-10
It's boastful and a kind of motivational to assert that you made this and that persons. Perhaps you're trying to draw accolades and gain attention to strike a selfish gain.
Boasting is to glorify oneself, talk in vanity, bragging attitude, or to speak especially about personal deeds. Boasting is to talk with pride. Boastful people are starving for attention.
Whatever you have achieved wasn't by works, but by grace through faith in Christ. Your self-faith and self-righteousness cannot by any means bring you closer to any achievement.
Whatever success we might have had as we tried to help others should usually not be discussed, let alone bragged about it.
This is especially true when we have the opportunity to help, comfort, counsel or console anyone who is weary and troubled in heart.
"But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, Matthew 6:3.
Humble, quiet and compassionate service is soul rewarding. We can only fulfil our divine mandate through humility and knowing that all is by God's grace. It's only possible if we connect to God through Christ.
Life cannot flow through us if we are not connected to the source of life. It's obvious and quite clear that a branch cannot produce fruit if it is no longer attached to the vine. We can only be meaningful and fulfil God's purpose if we depend on Christ for strength. Without Christ we can do nothing.
When Jesus talk about fruit, He means something important, significant and matters. We must abide and depend on Him to have abundance life. It's not just life, but life that endures.
The goal of a good farmer is not just to plant any how life plants, but to plant a producing plants. He does that with the right balance of pruning which includes weeding and cutting off the excess growth. Having excessive leaves could reduce the strength of the plant, and compromise the fruit. John 15:1 - 16.
Christ will for us is to develop healthy life with great fruitfulness, but it's our personal responsibility to prune our lives. We may not like it but we need to do it to stay healthy.
Pruning is necessary for proper and abundant fruitfulness to take place in our lives.
Life is not built in the negativity. Life can only be found in the positivity. We can produce much fruit in love which is the fruit of the Spirit.
Loving one another and bearing abundant fruit shall we only be identified as the true followers of Christ.
By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. John 13:35.
Remaining in Christ means abiding in His love, which goes out toward God and others. One cannot be a true Christian without passion to love God and others. We can win souls by first loving them.
Abiding in Christ breeds passion in our souls to love others as Christ commanded. The very nature of Christ is love, thus to be connected to Him will create a godly love in us. Those who love Him will keep His commandments. You will tend to do what pleases others when you love them.
Loving one another gives us joy, and there will be no joy without love. Being a Christian and serving in love is not tedious or a kind of activities involving effects. Rather it’s a life we live through Christ. The joy of the LORD will be experienced by those who love Him; the fulness of joy that Jesus promised. This joy and love will be so obvious for those who are saved that others will think that we are like Christ. Our love should be so like Christ's that people will know what Christ is like by observing us.
We should learn how to give credit to God and be content regardless of our qualifications, achievements and circumstances. Whether we made this and that persons, our content will not based on that circumstances, but rather on a person -Jesus Christ.
"Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God. 2 Corinthians 3:5
Nobody is complete, we're works in progress. We're still in progressive sanctification by the Word and Spirit of God. We should give credit to whom credit is due. God's name is "Jealous" because He is a jealous God and He will not share His glory with another. Exodus 34:14.
God who determines our steps in life deserves all the credit. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philipians 4:13.
Some political gladiators, job seekers, the sicks and those who are facing one problem and another usually make a motivational remarks using the same to score some points or found succor. But this isn’t a promise that things will go favorably to your way. Actually, it’s quite the opposite of what some people are positing. "I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH THE STRENGTH OF CHRIST" is an affirmation of hope in the midst of your struggles and trials. We should learn how to give credit to God and be content regardless of our qualifications, achievements and circumstances. Whether we made this and that persons, our content will not based on that circumstances, but rather on a person Jesus Christ. Regardless of your circumstances, you can be content, be at peace and have joy. If you have Jesus without anything, you have more than enough. The power of Christ Jesus in you is enough.
This is a drastic win for those who are struggling and without hope.It’s a reminder, an encouragement, that though life may be tough and seemingly hopeless there is hope in Christ. God is with you and you will draw strength from Him by depending on God.
You can get through whatever life throws your way because God is with you.
"For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. Philippians 2:13.
We have the ability to endure the trials and hardships when we keep our eyes on Jesus. And by this others will see and turn their life to Christ. We're encouraged to abide and remain steadfast in Christ when life gets tough and good. Not because we are enough, but because we have God living in us and He is more than enough.

DON'T GIVE UP YOUR FAITH IN DIFFICULTY
The life we live is a test, and we have to pass it. Many a times when we're faced with troubles, we contemplates in our thoughts and asks why do we have to endure one trouble after another since we gave our lives to Christ and surrendered every to Him. When we're in the world without Christ everything was so smooth, and we haven't experienced such hardships until we began walking with God.
Walking with God is having a relationship with God. He has invited you for a walk with Him in the journey of life. Psalm 119:1 - 8.
Walking means the course of an individual’s whole life. Enoch and Noah walked with God. Genesis 5:21-24 & 6:9.
Abraham walked with God when God said, "walk before me and be blameless. Genesis 17:2..
Walking with God is total dependent on God no matter how demanding the situation is. We're to obey and clearly trust God’s plan, even when it didn't particularly align with our desires. To stay on the path God has designed for us is perseverance in faith. As Christians, we need to learn to have the same unquestionable faith in our God, being confident in His ability to provide all that we need. In this journey, God is processing and working out the person He wants you to be. Romans 8:28.
Sometimes you may grow impatient, discouraged and want instant victory over all your problems. Walking with God is to learn patience. We're to see ourselves as a child who is learning from the parents how to sit, crawl, stand, walk and talk.
If you ever want to walk with Christ and be the person God intended you to be, your focus must be on the next step. When you strain to see the future and begin to fear, you will not have the strength for tomorrow, the enemy has succeeded in intimidating you by stealing your faith, and missed the opportunity to live for Christ at this moment.
When you're tempted to feel defeated in your goal to win Christ, choose to learn how to persevere in your faith by turning your focus on the course not anything else.
Learning to walk is a process, and it takes time, and so do the blessings of God. He is mindful of us always, and He is applauding when we do things that are hard for us. He wants to reward us for even the smallest efforts, but He also needs to give us things at the right time, and in the right way.
There's never a person who is successful or victorious all the time. If we're successful all the time, it will be harder to see the reality of Gods presence in our lives.
We need to have confidence that God will certainly do what He promised. Sometimes we do put our trust and hope doing good to please God, and to maintain our relationship with Him, but when we look around and see people doing bad prosperous and happy, we tend to question God's faithfulness and His promises to our lives. It can be so frustrating to see the righteous in pains and wicked enjoying the comfort of this life.
The abundant life that Jesus promised has nothing to do with a trouble-free life, but having His joy in the midst of tribulation. He stated plainly the requirements for following Him: Deny yourself and take up your cross daily. Luke 9:23. Cross is an instrument of slow and tortuous death.
The frustration is because we don't have enough patience with God. We want an instant rewards. We're not to forget that many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him from them all.
We should always be patience with God, and not throw away our confidence we have in Him.
Christians doesn't turn away from Christ, rather they endure in faith despite whatever hardships they may suffer. He that called us is faithful. He will surely deliver, save and reward those who continue trusting Him.
To have enduring faith in trials, you must remember how God worked in the past. The past days were those challenging and difficult days you had been saved by God. You're to focus your minds back to those days and how God had worked in your lives despite some difficult circumstances. You're to put your confidence in God who saved you from the problems of the past, He will still not fail to save you in other future problems
Hebrews 10:32-34.
We need to persevere in the midst of trials and persecution so that we can complete the will of God for our lives. We need to rest in the confidence we have through faith in Christ who enables us to carry it out. We should disregard everything that hinders us and run the race set before us looking only to the glorious finish line. Hebrews 12:1-3.
We will enjoy to the fullest of what God has promised us in the rest of eternity.
Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise: Hebrews 10:35 - 36.
Don’t give up; just keep walking. Learning how to persevere is an important state of mind in life and in our faith.

FEAR IS A TERROR
To live constantly in fear is to live in terror. We live in chaotic world where uncertainty, anxiety and insecurity has become a bed of life. This is a situation you cannot predict the nearest events and you're always thinking about unpleasant or scarely event that might occur.
Fear of uncertainty simply means penchant to be panicking about something you have no idea about on any level. Uncertainty is a fundamental part of fear, insecurity, phobia and anxiety.
So many awful and strange things are happening in our world of today, and people are not too sure of next events and are worried. There're fears of the wars, rumors of wars; terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, robbery, death, famine, disease, losing a job, broken marriage, relationship and home. The fear of economic, political and social uncertainty has continued to terrorize the world.
Fear is triggered by a feeling that circumstances is beyond your control. It begins as a thought and graduate to emotions that can dominate you. Some people become emotionally paralyzed as a result of how they respond to fear. As fear settles in our hearts, anxiety takes over, and many of us are robbed of a peaceful and abundant life.
Fear is devastating to mental, psychological, spiritual and physical well-being. It wreaks havoc with our minds, souls, spirits and bodies. Fear kills faster before the thing you fear happens. The effect of fear is dependent on how we respond to uncertainty.
Only God can heal such fear if we're incline to His words.
God says we shouldn't fear.
"Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” Deut 31:6, Isaiah 40:10.
Fear is man's strongest enemy. It's more horrifying and terrifying that Satan. Both fear and Satan are two faces of the same coin. You cannot find fear present without Satan. Fear is a device Satan uses to wretch and destroy lives. His mission is to steal, kill and destroy. John 10:10.
But this is not a time to panic or worry. Though we cannot pretend that nothing evil is happening around our environments. Noone has immunity from terrible harm or unspeakable evil. We should certainly be vigilant, but we should not allow our spirits to be on constant panic mode because endemic fear breeds health challenges.
God had promised that He would be ever present in our life. He will never leave us.
Being terrified that evil will befall on you or your close friends or relatives is faithless. You cannot say you love and trust God and still live in fear.
"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 1 John 4:18.
The perfect love of God drives away fear is wholeness and completeness of the Holy Spirit of grace that Jesus Christ had poured in us through faith in God.
"Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. Romans 5:5.
God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
Through faith in the death of Jesus, we're saved, redeemed, justified and sanctified from the fear, bo***ge of sin and death.
"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. Romans 8:1 - 2.
If you're being led by the Spirit of God, then fear should not overtake you. We are adopted when we accept Jesus Christ into our lives.
"For you did not receive the spirit of bo***ge again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God. Romans 8:15 - 16.
But if you're being led by the spirit of fear, then you're being influenced and overwhelmed by fear alone.
It's absolute fact that life as Christians is not anything near to easy. It takes determination and discipline to overcome fear. Through faith in Jesus, we have received forgiveness for the evil we have done. He has given us the grace, wisdom and power through the Holy Spirit, to overcome sin and the fear of death. As a believer in Christ, the Holy Spirit fights battles against the darkness that without God you couldn't be able to resist.
"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. 1 Timothy 1:7.
He who lives in fear lives in bo***ge and in darkness. The one who fear is like a blind living in a dark and scary world. Fear destroy our relationship with God and looks like God is powerless to deliver and to save us. Fear is lack of trust in God. Those who choose to walk and trust in God through prayer and His word, He gives the power through the Holy Spirit, to know that He is in total control and will see us through the darkest moments and circumstances.
"You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day, Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you..Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,. Even the Most High, your dwelling place,. No evil shall befall you,. Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; Psalm 91:5 - 10, Psalm 27:1 - 5.
Therefore, you're to wilfully choose to turn off your flight mode for those circumstances of panics, insecurities, uncertainties, worries, fears and things you have no control. You have to make a choice to turn to God for guidance, protection and serenity.
When we stop trusting God, anxiety controls our feelings and thoughts. When we know the word of God, His promise and through a constant prayer life, we can be confident that our Lord will guide and protect us. Psalm 23:1 - 4.
You're to decide to surrender all your worries and everything that concerns you to God. Always believe in Him for the positive and favorable outcome.
"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4.
"For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world our faith. 1 John 5:4.
God is always in control of all the situations of your life. He is your refuge, strength, fortress and a very present help in trouble. Look up to Him and trust Him. He will deliver all that He promised.

Life can be so full; yet without a deep heart satisfaction. A lot of people are living the life of emptiness because of how they feels about unfulfilled goals or dreams. Emptiness is that feeling when you have given in everything you’ve for your unrealized dreams. No matter the lack of fulfillment, God’s word holds the promises to combat the emptiness and find fulfillment in Christ.
To have meaning for your life, you're to first empty your mind of worthless and meaningless thoughts, anxieties, insecurities,fears and uncertainties. When you evacuate your mind with restless and unnecessary thoughts, you have made a space for positive thoughts, tranquility and serenity. This is possible when you focus your goals and dreams to align with God’s promise.
We have a lot that burdens and stresses our peace that we cannot easily separate ourselves from the strain. We have to look beyond our human ability for solution. We find that solution in Jesus Christ, but in order to receive it, the Bible prescribes we have to do something first: casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7.
We cast our burdens, stresses, worries etc to God because we're empty and cannot cope any longer. To cast is throw or to relinquish it forcefully upon God. He is available for us at any time and any season. We are not meant to bear our burdens alone. Our burdens are meant to be shared with God.
There's important and first step that we're required to take before throwing our burdens to God.
"Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time. 1 Peter 5:6.
Being humble is a call to duty for all Christians. This means considering others as more important than yourselves. And more importantly, acknowledging the significance of God. Not at the same level or below, but far above yourselves. When you humble yourselves before God, you acknowledge your need to help you carry your burdens.
You cast your burdens upon God because you cannot carry them alone. You cast them in an effort not be overwhelmed.
Depending on God for strength and for everything gives you the content of your life.
"And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7.

WEAPON TO FIGHT ANXIETY
The two imperative weapons to battle the anxiety are prayers and faith in the promises of God for future grace.
To achieve this, we're to follow Paul's pattern of life that he lays out for us.
Remember that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ had earlier told us not to be anxious about our basic needs.
Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things..But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Mathew 6:31 - 33.
And later Paul repeated the same saying, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” Philippians 4:6.
He later also says, “My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19.
Pauls statements are encouraging and liberating promise of future grace.
The Philippians Christians assisted Paul when no one else did. Paul was thankful and this reminded us that we should learn to be content in all situations, whether we have the bare minimum or plenty, because we can rely on God, who will never let us down.
"Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philipians 4:11 - 13.
Paul prayed for those who helped him, assuring them that he Paul is not able to make any returns to them, but his God would reward them as they have supplied his need, God would supply all theirs. He was also confident that God would meet their needs because of their generosity in giving to him and for the work of God . He knew that what he have to do according to Jesus commands was to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. He was to do that through prayer and faith. He knew the promise of God that says, "You will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:12 - 13.
He knew he can not be in a relationship with God and become God's beloved without faith.
"But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him..Hebrews 11:6.
Paul was confident with fullest assurance that God who was his God, the God of grace and providence, the sovereign and God of Israel, who loved, chosen, adopted, regenerated, and sanctified him by virtue of the covenant of grace, and which was revealed in the effectual calling as His ambassador, and whom he had faithfully served in the gospel of His Son is his God and will be so unto death,. This God will supply the needs of the believers who used their resources to help him and to the work of God according to His purposes
This is not a promise of wealth, or even an easy life. Rather, the concept of "need" has to be considered according to God's will.
Our needs would be supplied through Christ who created and controlled all things. We will never lack having Christ as our provider. In the beginning one of the famous name of God is " Our Provider". God has been known as the LORD who never break a covenant of providing for His people. Genesis 22:14.
It was affirmed by Paul.
"He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness." 2 Corinthians 9:10.
God promise not to forsake those who seek Him. He will provide for our financial, physical, and spiritual needs. It's in the heart of God to reward us for our hard work. When we are generous in giving our finances, talents, and our time for God’s works, God delights in being even more generous to us than we're to Him. We can never out-give God.
According to God riches of goodness He supplies the needs of all the living creatures; Psalms 104:24
God is also rich in grace and mercy. Ephesians 2:4.
He supplies us spiritual blessing according to the riches of His grace and He gives us all things richly to enjoy, plenteously and abundantly. Ephesians 2:7
Though the support you gave for the work of God is good and acceptable for your heavenly rewards, but Paul wanted us to know that so far as it concerned him, that his source of happiness or contentment even while in the difficult condition in prison wasn’t dependent upon those gifts offered to him. It wasn’t dependent upon any external circumstance or material supply at all.
Many people believe that if they have more material possessions they will be happy but none of the material possessions are inherently wrong, but they become so when we think that we shall found contentment in them. Looking for contentment in these things is a life in futility. The more we look for contentment in the things of the world the more we discover that it's still beyond us.
We shall find contentment when we have confidence that our God is trustworthy, and that is the secret of contentment. You can be bold to say, “My God will supply all my needs,” when you trust Him to provide what you lack. Sometimes what you need is the grace or strength to persevere through challenging times of hardship. God gave Paul the grace to endure:
Our basic need is God's grace or strength to deal with the difficulties and setbacks in this life.
God is able to supply all our needs because He gives us grace and strength every day to meet every new challenges:
“And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work”. 2 Corinthians 9:8.
David trusted God, and needed grace to advance against Goliath and Philistine army.
“For by You I can run against a troop. By my God I can leap over a wall. Psalm 18:29.
The LORD who gave grace and strength to David to strike down both lions and bears empowered him to face the Philistine and killed Goliath. David had the most astonishing victory because of his faith in God.
“The LORD who rescued me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine”. 1 Samuel 17:37; 45 - 47.
David later said, “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want....Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. Psalm 23:1 - 4.
The image of God as a shepherd translates to God caring, guiding, and protecting us even when we face death. We don’t have to fear deprivation because God is with us.
David had learned the secret of trusting God. There was nothing he would ever lack as long as God was with him as his shepherd just like Paul had putted his whole trust in God.
God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus” does not mean that believers will never experience times of need. For example Paul often endured trouble, financial lack, hunger, and persecution, but he had “learned the secret of being content in plenty and hunger, abundance and need trusting God.
God will supply all our needs is a promise of God’s faithfulness .God's servants will be fully supplied with what they need to continue to serve iff we humbly go to God for help even in our weakest and neediest moments. He supplies the grace and power we need to follow and serve Him and endure through every adversity. .2 Corinthians 9:12.
A child of God have nothing to be anxious about. You have nothing to fear.
"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10.
