Bible Verse of The Day – 7-2-16

Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV) 10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

Fear is very strong. It can be a life-changing problem for some people, if it is not overcome and put in its place.

God has never intended for any of us to live in fear of anything. Yes, there are things we should fear, in a healthy kind of way. But living in fear is not what God wants for us.

So how do we overcome fear and move forward with our lives?

First, we need to understand what we’re fearing. Most times we’re fearing something that has no power over us whatsoever. What do I mean by that? Let me explain.

We typically fear things that aren’t even in existence, such as possible scenarios, possible outcomes or possible results. These types of things can cause us to worry and be fearful.

Here’s what Jesus said about this:

Matthew 6:25-27 (NKJV) 25 “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

Sometimes we can be harassed or tormented by a spirit of fear. This is demonic in nature. Once we understand that this is what’s bothering us, we need to rebuke that spirit, in the name of Jesus. We have the authority, as a believer, to command it to leave. And it has to listen.

2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV) 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

But whatever it is that’s causing us to be fearful, we need to recognize it and do whatever is necessary to deal with it, putting it behind us and moving forward with God’s authority, strength, joy and peace.

It can take time to overcome fear completely. But it is possible, through Christ.

Today, look that thing in the face that’s causing you to be fearful. Speak to it and tell it that you will no longer live under it. And push it aside, in the name of Jesus. Victory is yours.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-25-16

Psalm 27:1 (NKJV) 27 The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?

Fear is something that we all deal with at different times in our lives. It’s something that comes in various forms and to varying degrees for each of us.

We all fear different things. Some fear being alone. Some fear being in poverty. Some fear sickness and disease. Some fear rejection. The list can be lengthy.

Fear is not from God. It comes from the enemy of our soul. It can come in subtle ways or it can be blatant and in our face.

As we walk through life, we can face so many things that can cause us to fear. Sometimes these things can grip us and tear our emotions to pieces, causing us to feel like ships tossed about on angry ocean waves in the midst of a terrible storm.

But we’re here to tell you that we do not have to be afraid! Yes, some things are hard to deal with and they can seem terrible as we face them. But God is with us. He is by our side. So no matter what we face, He will bring us through.

Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV) 10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

There may be times when it feels like we’re being torn apart by the storm, but God is our anchor. He is our deliverer. He is the rock upon which our lives stand firm.

Psalm 27:5 (NKJV) 5 For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.

So in the midst of your own personal storm, cry out to Him. Cling to Him. And rejoice in His strength and His faithfulness.

And stand firm in your faith. No storm lasts forever.

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-8-15

2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV) 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

The enemy loves to bully us and taunt us with FEAR. Because fear makes us look weak.

How do we stop being fearful of something?

We do the very opposite of what fear normally causes us to do. We FACE it and we get victory over it.

Not on our own, but with God’s help and assistance.

Romans 8:31 (NKJV) 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

God is for us and we can win over this fear that we’re battling.

Fear has to go. There are some that are afraid of speaking up at times. There are some that are afraid of stepping out. There are some today that are afraid and intimidated by their own children, their spouse, friends, Pastor, boss, or teacher.

The only way to win is to face it and deal with it so we can put it behind us.

How?

For example, if we are afraid of the dark, then we should leave the lights off and get used to it. It might be very uncomfortable at first, but that discomfort will decrease with time.

If we are afraid to speak up at times, make it a point to speak up as much as we need to, whenever we need to. We may get nervous and even have trouble getting our words out at first. But the more we speak up, the easier it will become.

If we are afraid to be around certain people because they intimidate us, then go around them as much as we can until we are no longer intimidated by them, etc.

God will help us get free from fear as we face it.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-2-15

Revelation 1:8 (NKJV) 8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, ”says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

We don’t need to be afraid of anything today.

Our Father is the Alpha and the Omega!! He has given us what we need to defeat any giant that stands against what He is trying to do in us or through us.

He has given us wisdom, power and might through the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, and we can do what He calls us to do.

Philippians 4:13 (NKJV) 13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Even though we may know there are things we need to do, it doesn’t necessarily mean we can just start doing them right away. We need to get ready first, through training and preparation. Don’t just jump in head first. Let it happen in God’s time and in God’s way.

Do we think that David took out the giant with his own might, strength and knowhow?

1 Samuel 17:45 (NKJV) 45 Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.

No. David came to him in the name of the Lord, the One who taught him and trained him. David was being trained to fight this giant while doing what he was supposed to be doing in the fields, tending the flocks. His everyday stuff.

God taught Him, first, how to trust Him, by delivering him from his enemy, right on his job! So when it came time to fight the giant, he was ready and prepared. He had a knowing and a trust in the Lord because He had seen it for himself, firsthand.

1 Samuel 17:37 Moreover David said, “The Lord, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.”

Being teachable is a big part of learning how to take out the giants in our lives. As we listen, and obey God, we experience it firsthand and it becomes a way of living!! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-19-14

Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV) 10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

Are we tossing and turning at night trying to figure everything out? Are waking up to fear in the morning? Are we constantly feeling insecure?

Today we want to remind you of what God says in His word. He is with you! He will strengthen you! He will  help you! He will uphold you! You are safe with Him.

Dear God in Heaven,

We proclaim Your word over each and every person today that is suffering in this fearful state. Right now, in the name of Jesus Christ, we rebuke the spirit of fear off of their lives, their family, their job, their ministry, out of their home, out of their workplace or their business and we stand against what the enemy is trying to do them, and declare this assignment against them null and void this day, in Jesus’ name.

We ask for your peace, Father, the peace that surpasses all understanding, to be with them and Your sound mind over them. We ask for Your clarity and direction in their situation.

In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen

Enjoy your day today. God is for you!!

Romans 8:31 (NKJV) 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
