God’s Word Says Fear Not
God’s Word Says “Fear Not”
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room – this mysterious global pandemic.
This hot-button topic promotes (and continues to promote) a lot of fear and isolation.
The mainstream media just makes it worse.
Christians friends – we can’t let the fear of the unknown overtake our lives and forever stall our purpose here on earth.
In short, Satan wants mass fear and panic.
Did you know that, in the Bible, the words “fear not” appear over 100 times?
We must take the words of Jesus to heart.
The Bible clearly says, “Fear Not.”
It doesn’t say, “Fear Now.”
Our Sovereign God gave us life, to actually live it.
Fear Not – God’s Word Doesn’t Lie
God always says what He means.
If this can encourage you in any way, please read the following wise words from a pastor that I listen to a lot.
I hope it’s a helpful reminder for you of our victory through Christ because we’re living in a world that appears to have lost its collective mind.
Find rest and God’s peace in Biblical passages that remind us what Jesus has already done, and what He will do. Seek out those passages!
Jesus speaks about what has yet to be done as already completed, I HAVE. He has already overcome this world. He already has the victory. He has triumphed already. When I read one word it completely changed my perspective. I realized that I need to see this ongoing national crisis, this global pandemic through the words of Jesus. Jesus has already overcome the world. If He has already overcome, why do we worry? If our King is already victorious, and He has already given us the outcome, there is no need to fear. – Pastor John Randall, Calvary Chapel San Juan Capistrano
Jesus already overcame the world.
Specifically, the word “overcome” means “to defeat.”
Christ our Lord defeated the Enemy.
To put it another way, we have reason to rejoice!
Encourage each other to “fear not,” keep watch, and see what the Lord will do.
