BE NOT AFRAID

Scripture: Mark 10:27 “And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.”

    “What time I’m afraid, I will trust in Thee.  In the darkness of night, Thy light I see.  When I look up, I see Thy face.  And find that you will send your grace.  What time I’m afraid, I will trust in Thee.  It’s your great power that sets me free.  Your mighty hand will lift me out.  And from my lips shall arise a shout.  What time I’m afraid, I will trust in Thee.  In my deepest fears, you come to me.  When I’m afraid of what lies ahead.  It’s then I remember the Words you said.  What time I’m afraid, I will trust in Thee.  My faith in you lets me bow my knee.  You promised never to leave me alone.  And through that trust, all my fears are gone.”
    Fear is one of the greatest problems we face as believers in trying to serve the Lord.  So many times fear keeps us from doing His perfect will.  We’re afraid of what someone might say or we’re afraid of what someone might do!  Many of our fears in trying to live a life pleasing to the Lord are fear of the unknown. Fear is not faith.  We need to trade our fears in for some real trust in God and His Word!
    The Bible is filled with examples of those who faced fears.  Nehemiah had a seemingly impossible task before him of rebuilding a city. To make matters worse, the government and others tried to stop him from his task; but still He remembered God was on his side.  “And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.” Nehemiah 4:14
     Remember “No Christian ever falls beneath today’s load. We only fall when we borrow tomorrow’s trials, without the benefit of tomorrow’s grace.”
