Be Strong and Courageous, Do not fear for God is with us

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not be terrified or dismayed (intimidated), for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
JOSHUA 1:9 AMP

Hallelujah be unto God for this brand new day, we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Thanks be to God for His Word that satisfies our souls at all times. Be strong and courageous is the command given to Joshua those days, as children of God we have also inherited this command because we really need it in our time.

It is an assurance from the Lord that when we entrust our lives unto Him, we need not fear any situation or circumstances because the Lord God is with us and is on our side. He will fight our battles and supply our needs according to His rich glory.

As the Lord God Almighty is with us we need to stay above fear, not allowing anything to intimidate us. The Almighty God is with us wherever and whenever! Stay strong and courageous for God is our Strong Tower and we are safe with Him.

May we enjoy the Lord’s 24 hour guard and protection! May we be strong and courageousin the Lord! May we be empowered to do greater exploits for the Lord. Blessings.

PSALM 23:4 AMP

Glory be to God ! The Lord has been good to us and blessed us with a beautiful day, let’s give Him all the praise and glory due His name.

King David captured this nicely in psalm 23; even though we walk through the valley (our lowest point in life) of the shadow of death (point of lost hope and life) God is still with us.

Today May we make this declaration that because we worship the Most High God, even in our darkest moments, God will show up for us. He is our protector and our guide. The rod and staff is purposely meant for us. Enjoy this privileged position and know that God is always with us. Receive comfort from the Lord no matter the situation, once God is involved, it is well with us.

Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord [with reverent awe and obedience] and turn [entirely] away from evil.
PROVERBS 3:7 AMP

Glory and adoration be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

The scripture admonishes us that we should not be wise in our own eyes as that does not lead us anywhere.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. It is the fear of the Lord that will bring the needed wisdom that we require to excel on all fronts and enjoy grace.

To fear the Lord requires that we give our utter most reverence to the Lord and totally obey Him. It also requires us to completely turn away from evil and any appearance of evil.

May the Lord help us to accomplish His purposes in Jesus Mighty name, may His grace be sufficient for us to live completely for Christ all the days of our lives in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Be Strong and Courageous, Do not fear

Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble in dread before them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not fail you or abandon you.”
DEUTERONOMY 31:6 AMP

Glory and honour be to the King of the entire universe for gifting us another blessed day. Hallelujah!

Thanks be to God for His Word today which encourages us to stand firm and forge ahead! These were Moses’ words to the children of Israel as they were about to cross the Jordan. Moses’ assignment was over and he needed to boost the Faith of the Israelites for the journey ahead.

Today this same word is urging us on and encouraging us that it is possible, the journey ahead can be overcome once we keep our focus on the Lord. Be strong and Courageous means that we should not give up on the way when the challenges come up. We must be certain that the Lord who crossed the Jordan with the Israelites will lead us to cross every “Jordan” in our lives. What we thought was an impossible task, the Lord will see us through.

Thank you Lord for strength and courage for the journey ahead! Thank you for your ever presence in any of the steps we take. Thank you for not abandoning or forsaking us but holding us by the hand and directing us. Thank you Father for your Great love and care in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of Knowledge

The [reverent] fear of the Lord [that is, worshiping Him and regarding Him as truly awesome] is the beginning and the preeminent part of knowledge [its starting point and its essence]; But arrogant fools despise [skillful and godly] wisdom and instruction and self-discipline.
PROVERBS 1:7 AMP

Glory and honour be unto God for the blessings of a brand new day, may we experience His presence continually.

The fear of the Lord, giving reverence to God, committing your life fully to His service, regarding God as our true source of life is the beginning of Knowledge.

The Bible made this statement a few times and I believe it is for the sake of emphasis due to its importance.

The fear of the Lord brings to us wisdom and instructions for life, it also imparts unto us self discipline.

May we Fear the Lord so that we get empowered by the wisdom and knowledge of God to do greater exploits for the Kingdom of God and draw others into the Kingdom. Amen

God’s Love is Perfect and Casts out Fear

There is no fear in love [dread does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love].
1 JOHN 4:18 AMP

Praise and glory to the King of Kings, this is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. Thank God for bringing us to the end of the month and the 3rd quarter of the year. Hallelujah!

God’s love is so wonderful! Love is the greatest of all! The Love of God is the perfect love that is shed abroad in our hearts, this is the love that counts no wrong and therefore drives out Fear.

The scripture makes it clear to us that fear cannot co-habit with Love, once love is present, it casts out fear. God has not given us the spirit of fear or timidity but of boldness and sound mind which is powered by the love of God.Let’s walk in the boldness and love of God.

May the Love of God fill our hearts and minds to drive out any form of fear that prevents us from doing God’s perfect will. May greater love abound in our lives in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

The Lord favours those who fear and Worship Him

The Lord favors those who fear and worship Him [with awe-inspired reverence and obedience], Those who wait for His mercy and lovingkindness.
Psalms 147:11 AMP

Praise and glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

The Psalmist has made a foundational statement in today’s scripture. God favours those who fear and Worship Him and also wait for His mercy and lovingkindness.

This means if we will obey His Word and walk according to His commandments, we are giving reverence to God and therefore we are positioning ourselves for His favour.

The favour of God will also give us favour before men so let us strive to obey God’s commandments so we receive His favour.

May the favour of God locate us as we strive to walk by His Word. May we always wait for His mercy and lovingkindness to continue to enjoy God’s favour and grace in abundance. Amen.
