Daily Scripture
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” ~ Joshua 1:9 (NIV)
Did
you know the term “do not be afraid” or “fear not” appears in the bible
approximately 365 times?
Yup, that’s a scripture a day for overcoming
fear. Fear
is one of the devil’s favorite tools to rob you of the promise God has
in store.
Instead of being mighty men of God...we fear what people will
say about us when they find out we’re living right. We don’t express our
true feelings in fear of being rejected or ridiculed...
You don't > fill in the blank < because of fear.
We cannot keep living our lives in the shadow of fear.
The
only way to combat fear is through faith. Faith in the promise from God
that he will be with us wherever we go. God always gives provision for
the vision.
I
want to encourage you today to not wait another second to act on
whatever God has told you to do in faith. I was always told...
“Courage is not the absence of fear. It’s the act of doing in spite of fear”.
Be courageous in Christ today.
Lets pray...
“Thank
you Lord for courage. Help us to overcome any fear we are facing in our
lives with abundant faith in you. Faith that doesn’t need to be
understood to be activated. Lord you have called us to do great things
and the devil has tried to use fear to keep us stagnant. No more! Today,
Lord we choose to trust in your promise to always be with us, and by
faith we rebuke all fear from the enemy.”
Amen.
In great prayer,
Chris L. Davis P.S. If
