Who Do You Fear?
Proverbs 29:25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe.
This is a verse God used to help me in my surrendering to the call to preach. After spending over 20 years as a lost church member I wondered how anybody would believe me if I said God wanted me to preach His word! The devil will use this fear of man against us to keep us from furthering the Gospel. That fear of fellow man will keep us from: Witnessing Worshipping Working daily for God
We are too afraid of what someone may think of us or say back to us. We shouldn’t let the opinion of man stop us from doing what God wants us to do, because we don’t answer to man. Our Pastor says it all the time. “In a hundred years all that will matter is what you’ve done for The Lord.” We are at a time in society where are days and opportunities to do something for Him are quickly dissipating. Our desire should be to spread the Gospel and show Christ’s love as much as we can. We should not allow others to keep us from being able to utter this verse:
2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
When we can say that we can also then have verse 8 to look forward to. 2 Timothy 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
Don’t let man keep you from what God would have you to do today. God loves you and will equip you with all you need to get thru each and every day!!
God bless you today! Bro. Josh Richardson
