FEAR

FEAR NOT
CAUSES OF FEAR
Fear is reigning over many people's lives,there are 3 main causes of fear
  1. Timidity
  2. Inability to digest the word of God
  3. Faithlessness
   Inability to digest the word of God applies to people that don't read the Bible,they just have the Bible for having sake,they are not deep-rooted in the word of God and are not able to claim God's promises hst are written in the Bible.Faithlessness is also embed in this because if you don't read the Bible,you can't know what faith is.
   Timidity is a state of being shy and nervous,in this state,you won't be able to stand your feet in a difficult situation.

OVERCOMING FEAR
   In order to overcome fear,there are certain things that you should do;
  1. Digesting the word of God
  2. Using the word of God
  3. Praying constantly
   Digesting God's word means to read.understand and meditate on God's word,Hebrews 4:12 says "For the word of God is living and active..." when you digest it,it lives inside you,gives you courage and strength to withstand hardships because it is active. 2 Timothy 1:7 says "For God did not giveus a spirit of timidity but a spirit of POWER and patience and love" when you read this,you meditate on it,God has given you a spirit of power,isn't it great?,then you say to yourself when God has given me power,who can I not confront? Hallelujah!
   Using the word of God means to say those words to yourself,use it when praying and in times of difficulties you continue to say it to the difficult situations.God made so many promises in the Bible,so,when praying,take those words and use it (with faith) to pray and God will do it.Isaiah 54:4 "Fear not,for you will not be ashamed..."proclaim this to yourself by using it in your prayer and speak it always
   Finally,when you don't pray,you can't overcome fear,prayer is the key.Praying,digesting God's word with faith helps you to overcome fear.
        GOD IS ALWAYS THERE TO HELP!!!

Christ Is There To Help

Christ Is There To Help

It's All Yours

Yeah,it's all yours,many will wonder what this means,it simply mean everything that is in this world belongs to you,the Bible talks about this in 1 Corinthians 3:21 & 22,many people are not aware of this fact and that is why so many people always pray in the wrong way and for the wrong things,when God says all things are yours and you still keep praying that God should give you money,food e.t.c though the Bible says in Matthew 7:7 "Ask and it shall be given unto you..." but these (material things) are not what you should ask because they are already yours,examples of things that you need to ask are : The will of God for your life,spiritual strength,grace,wisdom e.t.c Solomon did not ask for money nor any worldly things,he asked for wisdom and he became wise,and then God gave him money,houses,horses,clothes e.t.c so when you ask for spiritual things, you are assured of other things.

Bad discipleship is being practised in the world to day,it is characterised by claiming to be a true christian through your word (preaching the Gospel truth) but your actions contradict what you preach,for instance,a man that preaches forgiveness but he himself keeps malice with people,that is a good example of bad discipleship,others are love of money other than love of God,love of pleasure other than love of God,treachery,slander e.t.c. All these things have been said to happen as recorded in 2 Timothy 3:1-9 which are signs of the 'last days' (days before the coming of Christ), with these things happening now,it definately shows and tells us that the last days are here,it will be better if we take heed.
