“There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear.” 1 John 4:18
“Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me.” Psalm 23:4
I am sure that as human beings we have all experienced fear at one time or another. Fear is a disruption. It is something that tries to tear us away from the promises of God in heaven and it tears down your strength and your trust in Him.
As followers of Christ Jesus, we become complete in his promises and his protection. We become sure, that in whatever experiences we must endure, our Lord is forever with us. We can all rest assured that whatever we are experiencing, He has experienced. He knows the pain we go through. He knows the suffering and the persecution this world puts before us. Over time and through a lot of prayer we develop a strong relationship with Christ Jesus. We begin to understand that He lives in us and that he will help us through any and all situations. We understand that we don’t have to fear any future punishment because of our fellowship with Him.
When we begin to experience fear in our lives then we know that we are suddenly not connected to our Lord. We are not perfected in His love. We may not have the mature relationship with our Lord that we need in order to live a peaceful life here on earth. We need to pray and fellowship with Him more often. We need to meditate and study His word. We need to stay connected in a way that allows Him to work in our lives whether our problems are big or little. He loves us and is patient with each of us. As we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, He is always with us. We must stay connected and never depend upon this world. Jesus is love and there is no fear in love! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
