*THERE IS NO FEAR ANYMORE*
*TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:*
Psalms 27:1-5.
[1](A Psalm of David.) The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
[2]When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
[3]Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
[4]One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
[5]For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
*MEMORY SCRIPTURE:*
Psalms 94:19NLT
When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.
*WORD FOR TODAY*
Overcoming fear enables one to achieve set goals. What you fear becomes a stumbling block to your progress and achievement (Matthew 25:25). One of the blessings a person gets from knowing the LORD is the ability to overcome fear. God becomes your light, salvation, and strength—light to dispel every form of darkness in your life, salvation to rescue you from the hand of the enemy, and strength to provide you divine health.
One of the enemy’s most popular weapons that he uses against us. Worry, anxiety, fear…can overwhelm us with a thick shadow of darkness, controlling our every move and decision.
So much crazy going on around us today - wars, conflicts, persecution, violence, crime, natural disasters, terrorism, economic uncertainty, unemployment, divisions, disease, death. We fear for our children’s future, we fear for our families, we fear for our financial future, and we fear for our safety. The list goes on…long. There actually is a lot we could potentially worry about.
One of the most comforting verses is Philippians 4:6-7, which says, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Dear beloved, spend time to know your God through His Word and fellowship, and you will never be afraid because you have access to light, salvation, and strength. Remember He has not given you the spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
*PRAYER FOR TODAY:*
My eternal Father, I praise and bless You for Your inspiring Word. Indeed, You are my light, salvation, and strength, so I shouldn’t entertain fear in my life. I use the power You have given me to drive away every form of fear in my life, thus walking in Your love and self-control and becoming a channel of blessing in Jesus’ name. Amen!
