FEAR NOT

Text :Isaiah 41:10 

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Fear is one of the major weapons the devil uses to capture many folks as prey. 

When you search through the scriptures, anytime God's angel appear to anyone, and the person is fearful, the first thing the angel will say to that person is 'FEAR NOT!'

The scripture says in 1 John 4:18 that, *"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear hath torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love."* 

This therefore means that there is no fear in God. God does not want his children to be afraid of anything because fear is a tormentor. 

In this new month, God is promising to do three(3) things for you while you have the responsibility to do just one. 

God said that He will:

 *1.Strengthen you:* This means that you are weak and you are in need of strength. Do not be dismayed for the Lord will strengthen you and you shall not faint.

 *2. Help you:* The Lord is your ever present help. So, instead of allowing fear to cripple you because you are helpless, all you need do is turn to the Lord who is your HELP. All of your help comes from the Lord. Psalms 121:1-2.

 *3. Uphold you with the right hand of His righteousness:* The Lord is with you to keep you from falling. You shall not fall. You shall not falter. No matter how strong the raging storm blows, you shall remain standing upright in the Lord your God.

One thing the Lord is asking you to do is: *FEAR NOT* . 

Keep your faith strong in the Lord.

Do not be afraid of anything or what the devil can do. God has assured you of His presence. The Lord said, "I am with you."

Firm assurance in God's presence with you will birth great faith and courage. Simply believe in God's love over your life, and this will always assure your heart of His manifest presence.

Bible reading: Psalms 121:1-8.

 *PRAYER FOCUS.* 

🙏Declare in faith:

I fear no fear!

I doubt every doubt!

I trust my God!

Happy Great Month.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
