READ:
MATTHEW 6:25-33
Fear is a
force that has captured millions of people all over the world. Men and women
manifest fear in response to the various circumstances which they go through.
Some types of fear are common with women. Those who have gone through traumatic
experiences also carry in their hearts a kind of fear which may be unknown to
others. As a rich man, for example, you may have the fear of losing all you
have and becoming poor. This was the type of fear that Job had. Many people
think Job did not sin. On the contrary, Job committed two sins. One was fear
while the other was pride. When his problems started, he said it was what he
feared that happened to him. Once you have fear in your mind, the devil will
use this to deal with you. Never think evil of yourself. Your tomorrow will be
all right as long as you are in Jesus Christ. Never got worried about what you
will eat or wear. Even if you try to worry you are not likely to solve life’s
problems without divine assistance. Instead of worrying, you can rely on God as
your Shepherd. David said he would not want because the Lord was his Shepherd.
The Shepherd knows that if he does not feed the sheep, the sheep will die. When
there is no sheep there will be no shepherd. Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd.
He will always take care of us. He has admonished us to seek the Kingdom of God
and His righteousness; money, clothing ad food will come as additional
blessings.
MEMORIZE:
JOB 3:25 –For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, and what I dreaded
has happened to me.
