FEAR NOT!!!
In a world of uncertainties and many
unknown, there is bound to be fear of all
types in our lives. People can not predict the
next moment so taking some steps that will
propel them in the direction they want to go
becomes difficult there by making them
stagnant.
According to the research made by Bible
scholars, they said that "fear not" appears
over 500 times in the Bible...meaning that
for every fear you have there is a fear not!
Now list the things you fear in this life, are
they up to 500? Then why are you always
afraid or why do you always fear? I make
bold to say that fear is a sin! Yes, because
Revelation 21:8 says that even the cowards
or fearful will be cast into hell.
There is a popular saying that "cowards die
many times before their death..."
Many people and even christians have lost
their crowns and destiny because of fear,
fear to take the steps expected of them and
out of fear have made wrong decisions that
affected their future.
Are you in the bondage of fear? You can
brake away today to live life beyond limit!
Fear limits you, makes you loose faith in God
and begin to focus on the problems. Many
sinners and backslidders are so afraid to ask
God for them mercy and restoration because
they think He will not forgive them...who told
you that? Enter His throne for mercy with
humility, faith and boldness. Not only that,
fear put you under the control of satan and
he uses it to torment you (because fear has
torments), etc. But perfect love (for God and
having confidence in Him as your only source
and helper) casts out fear.
A fearful person can never experience great
miracles! Whatever good plans you have
commit them into the hands of God and
work towards them by faith and not fear.
Sometimes when I look back at the things I
feared, they were never real, never happened
and where just a mirage. What do you want
to achieve this year, education, marriage,
establish business, etc.?
Cast away that fear and pursue them with
faith. Faith opens heaven and brings God
down to your level and situation but fear
does the opposite.
It is a sin for a christian to live in fear, it
means you are not of God! According to the
scriptures, never fear any creature of
God...the only one you must fear is the
creator...God Himself.
