God’s Got This! Don’t Fear!

Standard

I very much appreciate a friend’s devotion today and truly appreciate the LORD”S ASSURANCES!!!

I had some very interesting dreams lately – movie like – more intense and more high paced than my own life – and wow I am glad that God wakes me up and I don’t even have to figure out that second life of situations – the dreams lately were strange enough but also involving differing opinions of people – well – long story short I would have to think that we have ONE truth which is not an opinion – and that is Jesus is coming back here sooner than later – yeah…  In both the dreams there were people of differing opinion (various topics) and yet they and we were friends. We found common ground in our spirituality and we found the truth at the same time that JESUS is Lord.

So – if we have fears today – let us remember that Jesus and God’s Word is so much above our differences – that He’s got this crazy world figured out – and He’s got the OUT from the craziness in His stability and in HIS Joy…

Well, there is the crux of this devotion was on the scriptures. Scriptures which say: DON’T FEAR – God’s Got This!

Amen

Psalms 27:1 “The Lord is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid?” 

Psalm 56:2-4 NIV My adversaries pursue me all day long; in their pride many are attacking me. When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise – in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?

Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.

Isaiah 12:1-3 NIV – Songs of Praise
In that day you will say: “I will praise you, Lord. Although you were angry with me, your anger has turned away and you have comforted me. Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.” With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.

2 Timothy 1:7 Amplified Bible
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control].

Jeremiah 29:11 – For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
