It Will Not Come Near You. What Are You Afraid of?

Yet to Be #297

In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear; and from terror; for it shall not come near thee. Isaiah 54 verse 14

What do you fear?

Homelessness, unemployment, loneliness, poor health, death?

Whatever it is we have all faced the cold steely eyes of terror;

That dark emotion called fear grips your heart;

Torments your mind until you begin living in a constant panic about something you dare not name;

of something too great for you to keep in check; too dangerous it invades every waking moment.

until it descends deep into the bowels of your soul, of your very being.

You cannot eat; you cannot sleep.

Consumed with a myriad of paralyzing thoughts, life becomes bleak at times even, unbearable.

Fear Not.

You are not alone.

There is help.

A very present help when you are in trouble.

He is our help. Jehovah Ezer.

He is our shield. Jehovah Magen.

He is our provider. Jehovah Jireh.

He is our healer. Jehovah Rophe.

He is our protector. Jehovah Nissi.

He is our peace. Jehovah Shalom.

Fear Not.

Projecting Fears

Yet To Be # 293

We think about a whole lot of things.

Things we have no control over.

Because of this lack of control, fear creeps into our thoughts.

The what-ifs become insurmountable.

We are consumed with our fears until we seek to share them and project them onto others.

If we for but one moment take our eyes off our fears and look to God he will quiet our hearts and mind.

Look to God; the same God who is all-powerful, almighty, and Creator of the world. Who parted the Red Sea. Who gave power to the least of all nations so that they could conquer their enemies. The God who walked with individuals and communed with them. Who stopped the lion’s mouth, who saved the three servants in the furnace. Who calmed the seas. Who sent his only son to save the world.

Look to God and remember his promises.

God Does Not Set You Up For Failure…

Yet To Be #292

God does not set you up for failure.

He is working on your success.

If you doubt and have small expectations, the only thing you will receive is mediocrity.

If God said for you to do something or go someplace, he will make it possible for you to succeed.

He will open up the heavens and provide whatever you lack.

He is a loving God.

Failure is not something he sets you up for. There may be times when you have to try again, and again, but in God’s time, everything will fall into place and be perfect.

He does not set you up.

He sets you right.

Reference verses:

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. Malachi 3 verse 10.

As for God, His way is perfect: the word of the Lord is proven. Psalm 18 verse 30

The blessing of the Lord enriches, and He adds no sorrow to it. Proverbs 10 verse 22

Don’t You Get It? God Has Your Back

Yet To Be # 291

Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea there is no God; I know not any. Isaiah 44 verse 8

How often do you need to hear that God has your back?

Why do you worry?

Why are you afraid?

He is God the almighty.

He has helped you before and you know he will always fulfill his promises.

So, what is your problem?

Comfort For Those In Mourning

Let not your heart be troubled.

Yet To Be #289

Let not your heart be troubled.

He shall wipe away all tears from their eyes

Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.

He health the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

Reference verses: John 14:1, Revelation 21:4, Psalm 147:3, Matt 5:4

Comfort For Mourners…

Yet To Be # 288

For the Lord will not cast off forever.

But though he causes grief, yet will he have compassion.

For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning at the first blush of day when the shadows fly away. – Francis Lee

Reference verses: Lamentations 3:31 to 33, Psalm 30:5, Song of Solomon 2:17

Fear Not For I Have Redeemed You…

YET TO BE # 286

But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. Isaiah 43 verse 1

God’s love is all-consuming.

His passions are from everlasting to everlasting.

When He speaks it is forever.

Everything He promises, He fulfills.

Whatever He does nothing and no one can alter it.

He gave to us the most precious gift of all; His only begotten son, the darling of his bosom to redeem us.

It is by His grace and His great desire to have us be with Him through all eternity.

We are nothing, yet God so loved us, the blood of His son, Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God made us something.

Washed in the soul-cleansing blood of the Lamb, we are His for all eternity.

God Said, “I Will Help You.”

YET TO BE # 285

Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel: I will help thee, saith the Lord, and they Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. Isaiah 41 verse 14

Stop the fear before it invades your thoughts.

Squelch the doubt before it consumes you.

Dismiss the gloom that clouds the senses.

Lift up the fallen spirit.

Straighten the knees that knock in fright.

Look to the Lord who can never lie.

“I will help you,” God promised.

Fear Not God Will Help You

YET TO BE #284

For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee. Isaiah 41 verse 13

It is true.

Do not be mistaken.

Our God is full of compassion.

He sees us.

He knows us and he understands our needs.

So easily touched by our emotions.

Moved by our disappointments.

Grieved by our sorrow

When we are lost;

He seeks us.

He holds our hand and guides us to a safe haven.

He is our rock, our fortress, a very present help when we are in trouble.
