This
I
Know:
God
Is On My Side!
Fear!
As I read my Bible every morning it seems like God is constantly
reminding me, “Eddy, do not fear! Do not be afraid! I've got this!”
Scripture
Psalm
56
Observation
Fear!
As I read my Bible every morning it seems like God is constantly
reminding me, “Eddy, do not fear! I've got this!”
The
Bible is full of verses letting us know that if our trust is in the
Lord, we do not have to be afraid. The reason I believe that God
repeats this over and over and over again in His Word is that every day that He allows us to wake up He also allows us to face new
challenges.
These
new challenges, I believe, help us grow in our faith.
If
you listen to the Joy FM or some other Contemporary radio station who
will hear this song, “Fear – Is a Liar” by Zach Williams. Maybe
you need a reminder this morning: God is on your side!
Psalm
118:5-7
5 In my
distress I prayed to the Lord,
and the Lord answered me and set me free.
6 The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me?
7 Yes, the Lord is for me; he will help me.
I will look in triumph at those who hate me.
and the Lord answered me and set me free.
6 The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me?
7 Yes, the Lord is for me; he will help me.
I will look in triumph at those who hate me.
Application
I
will trust in the Lord. I will not be afraid.
How
about you?
Psalm
23:4
Even
when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid,
for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and
comfort me.
Psalm
56:3
But
when I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.
Matthew
10:31
So
don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole
flock of sparrows.
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, I know one of the reasons that I need to read Your Word every
day is so that You can remind me that You are on my side. I have no
reason to be afraid.
I
pray for those who are going through a difficult time right now. Help
them to trust in You and help them to not be afraid. Use Your Word to
encourage them. Give them the strength to face whatever they are dealing
with today. Help them, Lord.

Bible Reading: 2 Samuel 18; Psalms 56; Matthew 27
