FATHER spoke in Isaiah chapter 41:
10 ‘Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’
We need not be anxious about what lies ahead for Our Heavenly Father Loves us and will strengthen us no matter what events take place. FATHER gives us warnings in order to alert us and urge us to keep pressing in to HIS fullness.
Jesus was not reluctant to deal with the adversaries as He fulfilled His ministry and neither should we. It is written by THE SPIRIT in Acts chapter 4:
23 And being let go, they went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.
24 So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: “Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them,
25 who by the mouth of Your servant David have said:
‘Why did the nations rage,
And the people plot vain things?
26 The kings of the earth took their stand,
And the rulers were gathered together
Against the LORD and against His Christ.’
The disciples were being threatened by the status quo of the time. They were walking according to the mandate of Our Lord Jesus Christ Who spoke the exact Divine Intent of FATHER. Jesus is the Word made flesh and represents our perfect example to follow. These Scriptures are given to us as a guide and reference for our own individual callings and are meant to encourage us when challenges arrive at our doorstep. They lifted up their voice in one accord which can truly only occur when they are in unity with the revelation of Agape Love.
27 “For truly against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together
28 to do whatever Your hand and Your purpose determined before to be done.
29 Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word,
30 by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.”
31 And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
We should expect nothing less! FATHER awaits our requests and is not hesitant to respond. Let us not be hesitant to pray for the same empowerment as we fulfill our own purpose.
When we embrace HIS peace, we will fear not. Paul wrote by THE SPIRIT in Philippians chapter 4:
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
I began to experience and walk in this “surpassing” peace when I was told I had I had only days to live but FATHER ministered HIS peace to me when HE said “You will live and not die.” Once that happens, you quit sweating the small stuff and you are no longer intimidated by what man says or does. This same level of peace is available to all HIS Sons and Daughters so let us not be anxious of what lies ahead. Fear not!
