FEAR!!

i will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth". Psalms: 34:1. My friend, how do you face your fears? Here David is a fugitive. Fearful for his life because of King Saul's jealousy. He had been abandoned by his friends as well as enemies, was frustrated, discouraged, and scared to death. Sounds familiar? All of us fears of some kind. May be you are afraid of losing job, losing your finances, losing a loved one, fears of not acceptance, fears of failure, fears about rejection, fear of your children, fears about relationship and losing a marriage, and fears of tomorrow? And you are uttering these words "I am afraid"! Like David, I don't know what cave you are hiding? During my devotion this morning, the Lord showed me that "When I find myself in the cave of fear or when that free-floating anxiety descend upon my life, the first thing I need to do is acknowledge the reliability of my God. I have to say "Lord I know You are worthy of my complete trust". We may think that these verses were uttered as a "praise and worship song". Oh no. Bro: when we as believers in God and when we face our fears, WE MUST start the realization that our GOD IS SOVEREIGN- HE IS IN CHARGE. HE IS IN TOTAL CONTROL OF OUR SITUATION AND HE IS WORTHY OF OUR PRAISE. NOTHING THAT HAPPENS TO US CATCHES HIM BY SURPRISE. So my friend, ADMIT the REALITY of your fears, ACKNOWLEDGE the RELIABILITY in God, and ACCEPT the REINFORCEMENT of HIS power in your life. Yes, this is the prescription to get rid of your fear. Y'ALL HEAR!!
