Fear Does Not Consume the Born Again Believer

We were raised and trained to believe many lies in our culture, the only solution to this problem is for each born-again believer to ask God to reveal truth to them.

Why does it matter that we were taught ferry tales and embellished political leanings? It matters because these things cause people to turn away from the teachings of Christ and lean into the lies that make us feel good.

Many people are being treated contemptuously for telling the truth because of the way the truth makes people have a sense of gloominess.

Those who are secure in the Lord can face the truth without feelings of fear or sadness because we know all that is happening is known to God and that He protects emotionally and Spiritually those who belong to Him.

Deuteronomy 31:6

"Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you".

Psalm 91

"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty".

Those who fear are those who are not rooted deeply in the Lord Jesus Christ. They look to this world for their comfort because their thoughts are dedicated to figuring things out for themselves in their own way.

When we trust in Christ we do not fear! We do have misgivings at times but they do not consume us because rational thinking of the things of God keeps us from ruminating on what could happen and absorbed with God's promises.

Proverbs 3:5-6

"5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart

And do not lean on your own understanding.

6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He will make your paths straight."
