Living the Confident Life in Christ.



Proverbs 3:25-26 always moves me, to put my fear where it counts. The Bible says, regarding restful, peaceful sleep: "Do not be afraid of sudden terror, Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes; For the LORD will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being caught." Living the confident life in Christ, requires us to be in His word, and to keep His word, hidden in our hearts. WHY? Because the spirit of fear, is not from God. NKJ 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love and of  a sound mind."

God wants peaceful, uninterrupted, incorruptible, rest for us. When interrupted by fear and fiery missiles of doubt and worry, we're trained to redirect our thoughts. We are to KNOW, these are enemy assaults, CORRUPTION, from the devil himself. This corruption is aimed at us, and purposed to rob, steal and destroy.  Only that which God has chosen, may touch us. God offered Job, for Satan to test. The book of Job has grown countless believers, to greater faith and properly placed fear.  God is our strength and confidence. We're taught to walk by faith and not by sight.  Job 13:15 "Though He slay me, YET, will I trust Him." Job 42:2 "I know that You can do everything and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You." Isaiah 43:1-2 But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you."

Thank You Father, that through the blood of Jesus, our Savior, Your Son, the Consolation of Israel, we are grafted in. We are grateful that we as, believing Gentiles, experience and inherit, the majesty of Your love.  We ask You to please, have mercy on America's elections. Please spare America and the world, the dangerous corruption of another Clinton presidency. The Clinton/Kaine opposition to Israel must not stand. We ask You to send peace to Israel, in the matchless name of Jesus for His sake, Amen.
