Day 78

2 Timothy 1:7 ~ “For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control.” (Amplified Bible)

God is a good God. He is loving, He is kind, and He’s faithful. He is fair, He’s true, and He’s eternal. He is all powerful and all knowing. Omniscient, Omnipresent, and Omnipotent He is. There is no God like our God. He parted the entire red sea long enough for thousands of people to walk across the floor of it. He fed thousands of people with a couple of sandwiches. He has brought the dead back to life and made blind men see. You would think with a track record like God’s, His children would be fearless. Oftentimes, that’s not the case. I want to remind you today that we need to stop being fearful when problems arise. Being timid and cowardly is not of God. Have you ever seen Him hiding in a corner somewhere trying to figure out what to do? Of course not, HE IS GOD! All of the power that is in Him is also in us. We are His children, heirs to His kingdom, we have nothing to fear. Unexpected trips the ER, more bills than your paycheck, trouble on your job…whatever your “scary” situation may be, God has given you the power to conquer it. No weapon formed against us will EVER prosper. (Isaiah 54:17) Even if you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, don’t be afraid…He is with you. He always is, and He always will be!
