Fret Not Because God Is With You-Part 1
Beloved, the plan of God for your life is to trust Him completely and not fret. When you fret, you become worried, anxious and you make a “down payment” for something that may not even happen. By doing this, you demonstrate that God is not able and this is an insult to the Almighty God, the Creator of the whole universe.
Fretting makes you become peevish, irritable and impatient; God does not want you to live that way. He wants you to live the abundant spiritual life that Jesus died on the cross to give you. You must not let the precious price that Jesus paid for you to go to waste!
The Word of God tells us in Psalm 37:1-4, “Do not fret because of evil men or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”
When you have tenacious faith in God’s presence, protection, power and promises, all your worries will be conquered. Let your faith overcome your worry and God will turn your worry into worship, for His glory. Fear, which is the opposite of faith, plays a big part in worry and anxiety.
The Lord wants you to cast all your cares, fears and anxieties onto Him and He will take perfect control and give you rest. You can face any fear when you know that the Lord is with you. You can doubt your own abilities and potential, but never doubt what God can do with you when you trust and obey Him fully.
Child of God, be encouraged and believe that God will give you the strength you need for this journey of life. So you do not need to fret. Just relax and believe that God is at work in your life. He has promised never to leave you nor forsake you and you will not suffer shame. AMEN
PRAYER OF SALVATION
If you have not already committed your life to Jesus and you would like to do so now, please pray this prayer:
“Lord Jesus, I am sorry for all the things I have done wrong. Thank you for dying for me on the cross, to set me free from my sins. I ask you to come into my life as my personal Lord and Saviour, and fill me with the Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord Jesus. Amen.”
