I SHALL NOT BE AFRAID<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Psalm 91:5-8, Amplified Bible<\/strong><\/p>\n

You shall not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the wicked) that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and<\/em> sudden death that surprise and<\/em> lay waste at noonday.\u00a0 A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you.\u00a0 Only a spectator shall you be [yourself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High] as you witness the reward of the wicked.<\/p>\n

We are not to be afraid.\u00a0 We are not to fear.\u00a0 God has not given us a spirit of fear (fear is the spirit of the devil) but He has given us His Spirit of power, His spirit of love, His spirit of a calm, well-balanced, sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7<\/strong>).\u00a0 There is no fear in God.\u00a0 God is love and there is no fear in love.\u00a0 Perfect love casts out fear, expels it, flushes it away (1 John 4:18<\/strong>).\u00a0 The remedy for fear is the love of God.\u00a0 If you are afraid in an area of your life, dwell on scriptures concerning the love of God.\u00a0 Dwell on how much He loves you.\u00a0 Someone who loves you is going to guard you from any harm.<\/p>\n

John 16:33<\/strong> is a very special scripture to me.\u00a0 When I am in fear somewhere in my life, I go to it.\u00a0 This scripture tells us what we have in the world and what we have in Jesus.\u00a0 In the world we have tribulation, challenges, trials, distress and frustration (all of the things listed here bring pressure, stress).\u00a0 BUT BE OF GOOD CHEER!\u00a0 Take courage, be confident, certain, undaunted.\u00a0 In Jesus we have perfect peace and confidence.\u00a0 That peace is the rest, which is a result of faith in God and His Word bringing results to us. \u00a0\u00a0We can rest in Him for He has already overcome the world.\u00a0 He has deprived it of the power to harm us and has conquered it for us.\u00a0 Jesus has done that for us.\u00a0 He has already taken care of anything that would come against us.\u00a0 What we have to do is to believe we receive what He has done for us—-physical health, prosperity, well-being, welfare, financial health, wholeness in every area of our lives on this earth.<\/p>\n

Prior to John 16:33, Jesus tells us in John 14:27<\/strong> that He leaves His peace with us in this world.\u00a0 Therefore we do not have to let our hearts be troubled or afraid.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t have to be afraid of terror or terrorists or their evil plots nor of any chemical or biological warfare or any plagues or pestilence or sudden death either in the daytime or in the night season.\u00a0 God watches over us.\u00a0 We are hidden in Him.\u00a0 We are only spectators to these things because we are inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High God.\u00a0 All we do is witness the reward of the wicked, as a thousand fall at our side and ten thousand at our right hand.\u00a0 Nothing comes near us.<\/p>\n

You may or may not do this or believe it, but I know that it is accurate.\u00a0 Plead the blood of Jesus over you and your loved ones.\u00a0 Draw a bloodline around you and your family and your homes, properties, your vehicles in which you travel, your finances in the bank and retirement and job.\u00a0 I know of all my friends who do this and their finances have not been touched, even in these times of high cost and financial destitution.\u00a0 Also, I am praying every day now that I and my family will be at the right place at the right time, that we are not where any evil comes near.\u00a0 Pray and believe God.\u00a0 Be very alert to the Holy Spirit.\u00a0 Learn to hear His voice clearly.\u00a0 John 10:1-5 and 27-29 clearly tell us that we do not listen to the voice of a stranger, satan, but we hear clearly the voice of our Shepherd.\u00a0 Many months ago, the Lord told me to start speaking these scriptures over myself and my family.<\/p>\n

Know of a certainty that the Lord is taking total care of you and your family.\u00a0 It is a settled subject.<\/p>\n
