Walk out of fear

Everywhere we turn fear is present. When fear comes a wall is built. These walls have enclosed us in a false state of peace. As long as we are in the middle we have peace but when we try to pass through these walls of fear we enter into chaos. Everywhere we travel is left ruined by the tornado of a life we live. We cause others to fear because of our fears. But what are we really of afraid of? Is our fear worth us remaining a slave to them? It is time for us to face our fears and overcome the thing that has been overcoming us. Ignoring the fear does not make it disappear we have to confront it. Confront your fear with the Word of God. His Word is a weapon that tears down the walls and allows us to overcome our fears. Our faith in His Word will deliver us, it will free us and prosper us. So let us walk out of fear in faith and watch God destroy the walls of fear and give us liberty. God bless you.

1The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
3Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
4One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
5For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
13I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
14Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. Psalms 27:1-5,13-14

Obeying the Voice

For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices: But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you." Jeremiah 7:22-23

There was a time in my life when I could not hear the voice of God. Not that God was not speaking to me but I was deaf to His Words. Without His voice guiding me I did not understand what God really wanted me to do, so I did what I was thought was right. To hear His voice and obey His voice requires faith. I had to let go of my legalistic mindset and come to God in faith trusting that I would hear and obey His voice.

You may ask that is nice but "I have tried to seek God but can't hear Him". Well you have to lay down your life before Christ and in that state of humility believe me you will hear God. God reveals Himself to those that humble themselves before Him. In pride we say God if you reveal yourself to me I will serve you. But we must reveal ourselves to God (letting go of everything) and God will draw near and speak to us.

Take the first step and come to God in humility and let Him define you by His voice. His voice has changed my life and given me so much liberty. God knows what is best for us but we must obey His voice so that our hearts may yield the fruit of righteousness in our lives. God bless you.
