FEAR NOT: Focus on your Future, NOT your Past
God is concerned more about where we are going than where we are from. We can never UNDO the wrongs of yesterday, BUT we can get things right for tomorrow.

FEAR NOT: “Seeing” God is a Blessing: Get to Know Him
…many of our fears concerning God arise from misconceptions due to cultural influences and/or a lack of knowledge of God’s WORD.
FEAR NOT: Our God is (infinitely) Bigger
If our God, Jehovah, is our Healer, why do we fear illness/disease? If Jehovah is our provider, why do we fear poverty? If Jehovah is our shield, why do we fear our enemies?
FEAR NOT: We are Tested so We can Testify
We can proclaim God’s faithfulness in the storms of life, when we have been through those storms leaning on Him.
FEAR NOT: Shun Sin Instead
FEAR NOT, if the sin is gone,
The battles will be won!
FEAR NOT, put the sin away
And experience triumph today!
FEAR NOT: The LORD goes Before Us, The LORD is With Us, The LORD will not Leave Us
When The LORD goes before us, He leaves a Trail of Triumph for us to walk in: as long as we follow Him, as long as we walk in the paths He has laid out, we cannot fail.
FEAR NOT: Overcome Obstacles with Obedience
If we are walking with God, what can harm us? Is there an obstacle we can’t overcome with God holding our hands? Can someone else snatch us away from God’s side?
FEAR NOT: Believers, God is for Us!
…we will be victorious when we die to sin and live in the power of God’s enabling grace.
FEAR NOT: There is a Way out of the Wilderness
…if we refuse to fight the giants that stand between us and the place, the person, God wants us to be then we will live in the “wilderness” for the rest of our lives.
FEAR NOT: God is Working on Us
Fear of consequences does not produce love or even obedience. It is ONLY an enduring, reverential, and respectful love relationship with God that will keep us from sin. When we reverence God’s Holiness, when we respect His way, when we have a genuine relationship with Him we will find it increasingly uncomfortable to disobey Him, we will avoid sin.
