Fear not the promises of God

For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. II Corinthians 1:20

God imparted in my spirit today. "Fear not the promise of God" Wow!! The promises of God can be intimidated when we see our limitations. When in a storm the excitement of His promises seem far away. When provision seems to never come we can doubt that God is really going to keep His promises. When sickness comes and the pain is real it is hard to trust that God is going to heal us. When an addiction has a hold of us and we continue to fall short of the glory of God it is hard to believe that God can save and redeem us. When God has sown His Word into our hearts and we struggle to fight against the attacks of the enemy we must not fear what God has promised us for it will come to pass. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. II Peter 3:9 What has God spoken over your life? Whatever it is God is not slack concerning His promises. The promises that God has for us are ours to possess but what is hindering us from receiving them. Fear. The world has to receive before they believe. While for His promises we have to believe to receive. Fear inhibits us to have faith in God's promises. The enemy uses fear against us to doubt that God is working in our lives and we end up fighting against the very things we desire. We can not receive anything from God without faith. We are saved through faith. We are healed through faith. We are delivered through faith.

For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. I John 5:4

When we are faced with adversity and fear is knocking at our door let it be greeted by faith. Faith overcomes whatever the world offers. It conquers our fears and destroys the works of the enemy. If we will only just believe God our minds will be renewed, our bodies will be restored and our hearts will be filled with the joy of His presence. If God never leaves us what is greater than our God? Nothing. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. I John 4:4 Our fears can cloud our vision from seeing that God is in the midst of adversity working on our behalf. Let us have faith in God. His promises are true and will come to pass no matter what the enemy uses against us if we don't doubt Him we shall receive all that God has for us. God bless you.

Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? James 2:5
