This will be a short blog because I have written about fear already but there are somethings, I believe I have left unsaid and needs to be cleared.
Look how this pandemic has brought out the fear of man, to an extent that they forgot their first love. Consequently, He is who they should fear but they choose to fear the call from man instead. So, I say how strong is your faith and who will you trust. I will stand on God’s word that should not fear man at all. Here are some verses on this topic.
Deuteronomy 1:17
You shall not show partiality in judgment; you shall hear the small and the great alike. You shall not fear man, for the judgment is God’s. The case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it.’
Numbers 14:9
Only do not rebel against the Lord; and do not fear the people of the land, for they will be our prey. Their protection has been removed from them, and the Lord is with us; do not fear them.
The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.
Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.
See we are not to be impartial in judging a situation, but with clear minds and the truth of Gods word judge. With this there is no fear at all we can stand in victory for all that is done. But today man take every word of man for truth and call God a liar, how crazy is that. Now I know you are saying how are we calling God a lair well let me help you there. God say we are not to trust this world, but we are willing to bow down wear mask and take a vaccine.
It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes.
Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord.
Isaiah 2:22
Stop regarding man, whose breath of life is in his nostrils; For why should he be esteemed?
Here are some verses where God makes it clear that we are not to trust in the things of this world for the deeds in it are evil.
I never thought I would see so many men of God just acquiesce to the things of this world so fearfully. All I can say is where do their faith really lies is it truly in Christ Jesus. God did not give us a spirit of fear but of a sound mind. This is where we should be fearful in, for Jesus said if you deny me before man, I will deny you before the father. We may not see this as denying Him, but it is. If you believe He will do as he says in His word, then you are denying what is written which is of Him.
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
This verse is perfect, it expresses the depth of man that trusts on the Lord, man how awesome is that. God said even in the worst of drought we will not be weary but strengthen. How many are very weary and are not having any trust in the most High-God, so I say where do their faith truly lies.
For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.
So, we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?”
What’s happening here is man cannot tell the difference between the war that is raging within them. However, this is a simple thing to fix. All they need is to get into the words of God so that the spirit is better nourish than flesh and this will weaken the natural man and strengthen the spiritual one. See what is happening they forgot to take the information that is provided by the world and line it up with scripture to determine lies from the truth and in this is how they forgot their first love.
When we start to understand that the word of God is Him speaking to us then and only then will we start seeing a change in our lives. So, I will leave you with this verse in Deuteronomy how we are not to fear and to be of good courage.
Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.”
I hope this blesses all who come across the blog and help them gain a closer walk with the Lord and savior Jesus Christ.
Here is a small prayer.
Let the spirit of the Lord inspire all to be better today than they were yesterday. God give me strength that I can go on for you. Hold my hand and lead me step by step to the things you want accomplished in me through me and by me so I may be firm in all my trials and victories you have laid up for me. In Jesus name amen.
