Taking Him At His Word
The
journey continues.
I consider anger
and fear as some of the worst ‘emotions’ (for lack of a better
word) for any relationship.

Marriages
are broken because of either anger or fears, parent-child relationships are
destroyed because of either anger or fear, and your relationship with your boss
can be destroyed because of either anger or fear. Think about any relationship,
you will realise that anger or fear sticks its head up like a sore thumb; as a
problem.
One
of those things you teach yourself as you continue in your spiritual journey is
to take God at His word. I decided to delve into what scripture says about
fear, what the Lord promises me despite of fear and well sometimes it is sure
hard but the challenge here is no matter how hard it gets, take Him at His word
and recite these verses over and over again when you feel overwhelmed.
I
will zero in on six life changing verses. You have probably heard them, you
probably say them over again, today I want to ask you to prayerfully internalise
them and recite them over and over again.
Isaiah
43:1 But now this is what the Lord says, He who created you Jacob, he who
formed you Israel; ‘Do not fear for I have redeemed you I have summoned you by
my name, you are mine
This
verse literally blew me away hehe in a good way, I am His, You are His, He has
redeemed you and you are His. Just hold it and let that sink in. Do not fear,
you are His
Matthew
10:31- Fear ye not therefore ye are of more value than many sparrows
Luke
12:7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore
ye are of more value than many sparrow.
Of
more value than sparrows and yet he takes care of the sparrow so well how much
more will He do that for You?
2nd
Timothy-For God hath not given us the spirit of fear but of power and of love
and of sound mind
The
fact that, that spirit doesn’t come from the Lord reveals to us who is messing
up with you and who is making you. And you know what He isn’t planning on
stopping if you keep allowing him.
Hebrews
13:6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper and I will not fear what
shall man do to me?
1st
John 4:18-There is no fear in love but perfect love casteth out fear because
fear hath torment
Let’s
go through some more ‘thus says the Lord on the next post’. Meanwhile hold on
to these ones, recite it over and over again, and believe it.
Most
importantly Take Him at His word-It is about time you did
I will definitely take him at his word. This is a good reminder for us to trust God completely.
