Fear is a liar

Studying in Nehemiah tonight. There’s an enemy out there my friends, seeking to oppose and devour us! His opposition can be personal, persistent, and use propaganda. It can come through deception, and even from your own people. Stand guard. Nehemiah was being discouraged by the enemy from building God’s house. The enemy tried using fear. That’s a big one. Fear can disengage and disable you. Fear is a liar. God has not given His children a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7) Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Romans 10:17) The just shall live by faith. (Habakkuk 2:4) Nehemiah knew where to turn when his faith wavered. He prayed these words, “Now oh God, strengthen my hands.” (Nehemiah 6:9) Do your hands need strengthening today? Reach out in faith to the One who created you, and spoke this world into existence. You will not be disappointed! 

When he told you you're not good enough
When he told you you're not right
When he told you you're not strong enough
To put up a good fight
When he told you you're not worthy
When he told you you're not loved
When he told you you're not beautiful
That you'll never be enough

Fear he is a liar
He will take your breath
Stop you in your steps
Fear he is a liar
He will rob your rest
Steal your happiness
Cast your fear in the fire
Cause fear he is a liar

When he told you were troubled
You'll forever be alone
When he told you you should run away
You'll never find a home
When he told you you were dirty
And you should be ashamed
When he told you you could be the one
That grace could never change

Fear he is a liar
He will take your breath
Stop you in your steps
Fear he is a liar
He will rob your rest
Steal your happiness
Cast your fear in the fire
Cause fear he is a liar

Let Your fire fall and cast out all my fears
Let Your fire fall Your love is all I feel

Fear he is a liar
He will take your breath
Stop you in your steps
Fear he is a liar
He will rob your rest
Steal your happiness
Cast your fear in the fire
Cause fear he is a liar

Faint Not!

Are you looking for the light?

Image
Psalms 119:130; The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple. John 8:12; Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” 1 John 1:5; This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 1 John 1:7; But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

Choices

Image
In a world of darkness, I choose the light.  In a world of evil, I choose the good.  In times of sorrow, I choose joy.  When Satan deceives me, I choose the truth. When fears arise, I choose the Father’s peace. When religion knocks at my door, I choose a relationship with my Creator, through the perfect sacrifice of Jesus on the cross for the forgiveness of my sin. When doubts arise, I choose to believe.  What or whom do you choose today?  “Today, if you will hear His (Jesus) voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” -Hebrews 3:7, 8
