I
WILL NOT BE AFRAID !
(Heb
13:6) ….."THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT
WILL MAN DO TO ME?"
Lord,
You are God. We are Your people. You are the Creator, we are among
the created. You, Abba, are our Father and we love You with all of
our heart, all of our mind, all of our soul. Let us open our hearts
and receive Your Word; through Holy Scripture, as we worship Your
Hallowed Majesty, in Christ, Amen.
(Rom
8:35, 37) Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will
tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or
peril, or sword? But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer
through Him who loved us.
Can
you even imagine the darkness and the horror for those who do not
believe? Even through Satan's feel-good claims of happiness, deep
down inside, those absent Christ know they are doomed.
(Luk
12:4-5) "I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who
kill the body and after that have no more that they can do. "But
I will warn you whom to fear: fear the One who, after He has killed,
has authority to cast into hell; yes, I tell you, fear Him!
When
we are tested, we are never alone. The Holy Spirit guides, and the
Lord protects. When our foot begins to slip, we hold to Him and He
reestablishes our footing.
(Mat
5:10-12) "Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the
sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. "Blessed
are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all
kinds of evil against you because of Me. "Rejoice and be glad,
for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they
persecuted the prophets who were before you.
None
were persecuted more than our Christ, or His Apostles. The testimony
of Paul is rich in reflecting the very character of His savior, who
gave HIS all that we may be freed of sin and the sentence of death
forever.
(Act
20:24) "But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to
myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I
received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of
the grace of God.
(Psa
119:46) I will also speak of Your testimonies before kings And shall
not be ashamed.
Never
be ashamed or shy in telling the TRUTH to others. Just as the
beautiful hymn reminds; “It is no secret what God can do, what He's
done for others, He'll do for you.......”
