Are
you facing fear today? Perhaps you are afraid of losing your job, of developing
cancer or being left by your spouse. At times all of us experience fear. But
don't allow fear to keep you from being used by God. He has kept you thus far;
trust Him for the rest of the way. - Woodroll Kroll
Give
me one hundred preachers who fear nothing but sin, and desire nothing but God,
and I care not a straw whether they be clergymen or laymen; such alone will
shake the gates of hell and set up the kingdom of heaven on earth. God does
nothing but in answer to prayer. - John Wesley
He
has not made us for nought; He has brought us thus far, in order to bring us
further, in order to bring us on to the end. He will never leave us nor forsake
us; so that we may boldly say, "The Lord is my Helper; I will not fear what
flesh can do unto me." We "may cast all our care upon Him who careth for us."
What is it to us how our future path lies, if it be but His path? What is it to
us whither it leads us, so that in the end it leads to Him? What is it to us
what He puts upon us, so that He enables us to undergo it with a pure
conscience, a true heart, not desiring anything of this world in comparison of
Him? What is it to us what terror befalls us, if He be but a hand to protect and
strengthen us? - John Henry Newman
Fear
is born of Satan, and if we would only take time to think a moment we would see
that everything Satan says is founded upon a falsehood. He is the father of
lies. Even his fears are falsehoods and his terrors ought to serve as
encouragements. When Satan tells you, therefore, that some ill is going to come,
you may quietly look in his face and tell him he is a liar. Instead of ill,
goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life. And then turn to
your blessed Lord and say, What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee (Psalm
56:3). Every fear is distrust, and trust is the remedy for fear. - A. B.
