One of the instruments that destroy the strength of man is fear. Man will be afraid when he has no clue of the forces confronting him. Or when he has wrong information about the forces confronting him. Anyone can be afraid when he/she is intimidated by the forces against (2 Chronicles 32:10-15). Anyone will surely be afraid when he/she look down on him/herself and rate the enemy to be greater.
This was the case of the children of Israel. They rated the Anak bigger than themselves. They do not see the greatness of the God with them who does many wonders in Egypt to set them free: Who parted the Red Sea, The God who conquer the whole army of Egypt in the sea. They forget how He gave them food and meat for 40 years. They do not remember the testimony of God using just 318 armies in the house of Abraham to defeat a whole King and his troupe (Genesis 14:5-14). They became afraid and could not enter their promise land.
Friend, the great I am is in you (1 John 4:4). Stop been afraid of what is confronting you. The truth is that you are bigger than that need or challenge. Knowing your God will restore your strength. And you will arise and win. Peace.
PRAYER: Lord, help me to see you above my challenge always.
“YOUR EMOTION WILL KEEP BEEN AT THE MERCY OF WHAT YOU BELIEVE”
