Fear Not – Peace Be Still

There is no God like this everlasting God we serve.

YET TO BE #234

And he said unto him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel…1 Samuel 23 verse 17.

(David was anointed King and promised by God the throne. In this chapter of the book of Samuel, King Saul’s son Jonathan assures David he will be king no matter how much Saul, his father, seeks to murder him. God uses Jonathan to remind David of his future.
Sadly, Jonathan later breaks the covenant and remains with his father even unto his death.)


Storms may rise and threaten to destroy all hope and promises.
But God is in control.
He calms the storms of life with a wave of His hand.
He creates a dry path to walk in the seas of trouble and makes bridges of hope for the future.
There is no God like this everlasting God we serve.
What is to be, will be, and no one can hinder His work.
Therefore, be not deceived when God makes a promise He will fulfill His word.

The battle is the Lord’s.

He will fight for you, and nothing shall stay His hand.

Fear Not God Is A Present Help

Fear them not…there shall not a man of them stand before thee

Yet To Be # 225

God is our helper.

He hears our cries before we call on His name.

He knows our needs and understands our every circumstance.

He is our God, full of compassion and plenteous in mercy.

He will never let us down.

And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear them not; for I have delivered them into thine hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee. Joshua 10 verse 8

Who shall His work withstand.

Yet To Be # 224

And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear not neither be thou dismayed : take all the people of war with thee, and arise, go up to Ai: see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people and his city and his land. Joshua 8 verse 1

God prepares a way where there is no way.

Therefore, trust Him where you cannot trace Him.

When He makes bare His arm,

Who shall His work withstand?

When He His people’s cause defends,

Who then shall stay His hand? – P. Gerhardt, (1607 -76)

In Praise of Love

Love never fails

Yet To Be #223

Many waters cannot quench love…

“Though I speak with the tongues of men and angels and have not charity I am become as a sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.”

I may be articulate but, If there is no love behind my speeches, then they are mere words.

Though I have the gift of prophecy and understand all mysteries and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains and have not charity, I am nothing.

I may be intelligent and spiritual in my approach to life, but if I do this all without love; I am nothing and my deeds are for nought.

Though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profits me nothing. 

I give to the poor, help those in need, but I do it for recognition, it is all for nothing if it is done without love.

Counting the ways of love:

True love shows patience despite troubles, is kind, is not fueled by envy, is not evil, does not look for self-praise, behaves with propriety, is not selfish, endures all, hopes for the best, is happy with doing what is right, and love never fails.

He gives courage to the faint of heart and strength to the weak.

His ways are true.

He is altogether lovely.

Fear Not – The Lord bless thee…

the blessings of the Lord maketh rich and adds no sorrow to it.

Yet To Be # 210

When the Lord blesses, it is forever.
There is nothing to be added to it.
And nothing to take from it.
The upper and lower springs bring joy and are eternal.

The Lord bless thee, and keep thee. Numbers 6:24

The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he adds no sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22

Fear Not Be He is God…

Fear not: for am I in the place of God?

Yet To Be # 205


Don’t be afraid of what others say about you.
Don’t be afraid of what others can do to you.
If you trust in the Lord, then everything will fall into place.
Fear will dissolve as your faith materializes.
The Lord has your back.
He will never fail you.
Only be strong in the power of His might and not in your self.

And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God? Genesis 50:19

Fear Not I am God

I am God, fear not…

Yet To Be # 204


Don’t be afraid because you are not in control.
God has your path mapped out in perfect symmetry.
He knows the way you must go.
Though darkness nips at your heels with every mountain climbed, valley walked, and bridges crossed, wait for the glory of God to break through and the shadows to flee away.
Take the first step and watch as He guides all your other steps to come.

And He said, I am God, fear not to go down to Egypt, for I will there make of thee a great nation. Genesis 46:3
