:HOW TO OVERCOME FEAR.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror
by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day.
PSALMS 91 : 5.
READ : PSALMS 91 : 1 - 9 :
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most
High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my
fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the
fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his
wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield
and buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;
nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness;
nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand
at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the
reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my
refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
MESSAGE :
God has a reservoir of power to protect His children
each time they are in trouble. This is why there is
nothing as good as making God the source of your
power. God is the most secure place to keep your
life. There are many conflicts in this world, there
are many happenings that cause fear but we are sure
and confident of our victory through the blood that
was shed on the cross of Calvary. God is the one who
can deliver us from all the dangers of life when we
trust in Him. God is the Secret Place that keeps one
from the enemy. I decree into your life; those who
want to attack you will fall into destruction in Jesus'
name. Those who put their trust in God have nothing
to fear.
As far as God is concerned, fear is not allowed for
His children. You cannot have God as your father and
live in fear, because the spirit of fear is not part of
your destiny as a child of God. Your portion is the
spirit of boldness and a sound mind. Shedrach,
Meshach and Abednego did not give in to fear because
they knew that the God they serve will never let
them down and they demonstrated this boldness
before the King and all the people by not bowing down
before the image of the King. They overcame their
fear with their conviction in the Almighty God. The
King made the furnace seven times hotter, yet they
were not afraid, neither did they change their minds,
because they knew God will wait for them inside the
fiery furnace. For a reader of this devotional, I
prophecy into your life; all those arrows that the
enemies are throwing in order to put fear into your
heart shall lead to your promotion in Jesus' name.
When it appears that you are dropping and about to
hit the ground, just remember that His everlasting
hand is waiting to lift you up.
The children of Israel were afraid of the giants in
the land they were to possess. They saw themselves
as grasshoppers before the giants because they
suddenly forgot that the same God that opened the
path for them to cross through the red sea was the
same God that wanted them to overrun the land. You
need to trust God and never doubt His promises. The
moment you doubt God, you are challenging His ability
and existence. Those who doubt God usually pay for it
and it is not always pleasant. As chicks flee for
safety under the wings of the hen, so must we run to
the protection of God. There are numerous dangers
around, but we know that the God we serve and the
power in His Word delivers us from all dangers and
fears. As we set our minds on Him, all those things
that cause us to worry are taken care of. He will give
answers to pressing prayers. He will deliver those
who are threatened with different kinds of trouble.
He will give you long life by keeping you in perfect
health. This is why I want to tell a user of this
devotional whose medical report indicates a limited
time to live; the Almighty God will change such
report in your favour in Jesus' name.
PRAYER POINT : Father, I receive victory over
every fear and doubt in my life in Jesus' name.
