Facing Life Fears


No Fear Mon!!!!!
 

 

"I am coming for you!" says Isis extremist! We live in a world with so much life changing events. What must we do?  We must fear no man! Our God is control of our lives.

Isaiah 44:1-8                                                                                                                               verse1 yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:

 Verse 2 Thus saith the Lord made thousand formed thee from the womb, which will help thee, O Jacob, my servant; and thou Jerurun, there is no other beside me thou I have chosen.

Verse 6 Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lords of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last, and beside me there is no God.

 

What is this passage saying to me?  Eddie has no Fear Mon!

1.    God is saying, “I am God! Period there is no other. I am in control of your future!”

2.    God is also saying, “I made you and formed you thus I am your God and I am in control of your future.”

3.     God is lastly saying, “I am the first and the last. I am in control of your future!”

 

In one of my pastorates I had a threat on my life. I had a call on a Sunday morning that someone was coming to kill me by bring a gun to church. Well, I was in the sanctuary. I saw through the window a car had pulled up.  I also saw a woman and a child came out of the car and hurriedly came down the hallway. I stood at the entrance of the sanctuary. My heart was beating very fast. I felt a rush and the power and presence of God.

 

 I said to the anxious woman, “Come in”

She said,” I cannot come in.”

Why? I said.

Don’t you see someone with a sword standing by you!

No! I replied with a feeling of protection

Yes! There is someone beside you, I cannot come in!

Well, with that she turned and panicky and hurriedly the woman left the building.

 

   Dearest friends, our God is in control of our destiny!! Our God, the Lord Jesus Christ will never forsake us no matter what life events will throw at us. I firmly believe thrust him and him alone and fear not. God will redeem us!

Love,

Eddie
