When I Am Afraid



Psalm 56:2-4 King James Version (KJV)


2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.

3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

Dear Friends,

Sometimes I am afraid.  Afraid in my humanness.  This morning when I woke up there was a feeling of anxiety, which is fear, in my head.  What I have learned, what I continue to learn, is what to do with fear.  When I am afraid I will trust in the Lord.  When I am afraid I will praise His Word.  What does this mean?  I will apply God's remedy to my fear.
God has said, "Fear not" numerous times throughout the scriptures.  It's time to look up verses.  It's time to review, memorize and recite.  When I am afraid, I will trust in the Lord.
The enemy does not leave me alone because I am a child of God.  Yet, the Lord will cause Him to retreat when I praise the Lord's Word.  When I dare to believe, help is always available to me.  It's personal.  The Lord says: Fear not_______! Put your name in the blank.

I praise God that even though I may step on the "pavement" of "when I am afraid" I don't reside on its street. I am walking daily in the favor of the Almighty God.  He reminds me to trust him and that I do not have to be afraid.
Fear not.

God bless!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie

Help…My Help

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help.

Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...
