In the bible we are told not to fear at least 365 times. If it is included that many times in the bible, then it was said at least that many times to us mere human, then it would it stand to reason, He wants us not to fear. To believe the impossible and the improbable, and let our faith in Him reign with the soundness of our faith we have, when we sit in a chair. Letting this faith and trust flow freely, unhindered by what we see, what we hear, or what another believes because what God ordains, He will always sustain. We have to not fear, and this is hard to do in today’s times. In the instant this, I believe-it-when-I-see-it attitudes, and nothing is accepted without the tangible facts. Spiritual enlightenment is sold on every television channel, bookstore, and corner store palm-reader; it makes it hard to speak of God’s radical revolution. However, true spiritual enlightenment cannot be bought or sold, and it is not being peddled anywhere. When God whispers your name, nothing is the same, just like the old adage says…So, as we seek to remain strong, and hold on to the fact God knows best; no matter the outcome or what is happening. We should not fear.
Not fearing is scary. However, do not fear reminds us that when we honor God, He puts us on the path for our ‘best life’ and miraculous things happen…The question we must ask ourselves at every crossroads – if we believe like we say, we do, then, why don’t we act on it, instead of walking in fear…Matt 14:26-29…When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. "It's a ghost," they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid." "Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water." "Come," he said. (NIV)
