The Spirit of Fear

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Philippians 4:6-7

Worship song: Fear is a Liar

 


Meditation:

    Daily we confront fear, and it has the potential to rob us of our joy and peace if we allow it to overwhelm us. Fear, according to the dictionary, is the feeling of anxiety and agitation caused by the presence or nearness of danger, evil, or pain. This type of fear causes you to doubt God's goodness and power. This fear is not of God. God did not give us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and self-control. This type of fear will keep us from fulfilling our responsibilities and prevent us from doing the will of God. The word of God reminds us in Isaiah 41:10 to fear not and be not dismayed, for God is with us; he will strengthen, help, and uphold us with his righteous right hand. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. Fearing man is a dangerous trap, but when you fear the Lord, you are protected. 

    The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, which leads you to make the right choices in life and submit to God's will. The Lord commands us to be strong and courageous and not be frightened, for He is with us wherever we go. The Lord said we should fear not because he has redeemed us, and we are his. When we pass through the waters, He will be with us, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow us; when we walk through the fire, we shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon us. The whole matter is to fear only God and keep his commandments.

Let us pray:

    Sovereign God, worthy of all praise, honor, and glory, please reduce the feelings of fear and anxiety that plague us. Help us rest in You and trust You as we navigate through this broken world. Lord, we seek deliverance and breakthrough whenever fear and doubt creep into our hearts and minds. Lord, we ask you to bind the power of fear and let it not have dominion over us because you did not give us the spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind. Father, whenever we become fearful, remind us that you are with us; nullify the spirit of fear that threatens to destroy our peace of mind in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Have a blessed day. 💕🙏

In Him Will I Trust

Good morning Scripture reading: Psalm 20 Worship song: I Will Say of The Lord   Meditation:      When the children of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir rose up against King Jehoshaphat of Judah, he became afraid and sought the Lord's help. He proclaimed a solemn fast throughout all of Judah, and all the people stood before God, including women and children, seeking his divine help against the great armies. Jehoshaphat urged the people of Judah and Jerusalem to believe in the Lord God and trust the word of the messenger, and they would prosper and triumph in the battle against the army that pursued them. He also appointed singers to worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness and to praise him for his mercy endures forever (2 Chronicles 20).       When you are facing giants, cry out to God, trust His plans, and worship Him with a sincere heart; praise Him in the beauty of holiness. Do not be like those who trust in earthly rulers, human strength...

 Day of prayer   O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endureth forever. Psalm 118:1   Worship song: Thanks   Let us pray:      Almighty one, let your mercy prevail over us, O God, breathe upon us afresh and renew our mindset until it overflows with gratitude and thankfulness as we celebrate with appreciation your goodness, grace, and mercy.

Purification of The Heart

By

Good morning Scripture: St. Matthew 15:8-20 Worship song: Create in Me A Clean Heart   Meditation:      The heart symbolizes the center or core of our being from which we operate. It is like the driving force behind our actions. It can be referred to as a person's character or the place within a person where feelings or emotions are generated. The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. Jeremiah, the prophet, says, who can know it? (Jeremiah 17:9). Only God can. He searches the heart, tries it, and rewards every man according to his ways and the fruit it produces. The heart is like a factory where products are produced and exported.       Whatever evil the heart produces, it will be shipped throughout the rest of our body, exit through our mouth, and defile us. Among the things that the heart produces are evil thoughts, wickedness, stealing, envy, striving, covetousness, and the like. A person is made or broken by wha...

Miracle Working God

Good morning Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. (Jeremiah 17:7). Hymn: My Hope is Built on Nothing Less   Testimony:      When God has you covered, when his hands of mercy and grace are extended, and when your faith is stronger than your situation, you can rejoice and glorify the King of kings. My faith and trust in God are further heightened, and my hope has increased after hearing a victory testimony from a relative who doctors thought had no chance of survival after his diagnosis. I can truly say my God is good, O, and he is still working miracles. A recent medical examination determined that there was no trace of cancer in his body. Through prayer, praise, faith, trusting God, a strict diet plan, follow-up visits to the physician, and nurture and care by his loving wife, who stood by him, pampering, comforting, and nursing him, he is now rejoicing and giving God thanks. Look what the Lord has done.     ...
