OUR FEARLESS LIFE Our life is precious because we can overcome our fears in life. "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7
In being a New Testament Christian, God has not given unto us the spirit of fear because fear has torment. Therefore, we should serve the Lord our God so that we can overcome all of our fears because that which we fear the most in life can become a reality.
Learn the following truth because your life is precious.
THE NEED FOR A FEARLESS LIFE Job said, "For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me." Job 3:25
I. Did Job fear loosing a part of his family? He probably did because his sons and daughter were taken from him. "While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee." Job 1:18-19
Now, we should not fear the lose of a loved one because our fears have a way of become a reality. Therefore, if we should lose a loved one, we can cast our burdens upon the Lord because He cares for us. "Casting all you care upon him; for he careth for you." 1 Peter 5:7 "For we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." Hebrews 4:15-16
II. Did Job fear loosing his wealth? He probably did because his riches was taken from him. "Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and saved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped. And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord. In all this Job sinned not, not charged God foolishly." Job 1:20-22
Now, we should not fear loosing our wealth because our fears have a way of become a reality. Therefore, our Lord will supply all of our needs. "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:9 "But godliness with contentment is great gain. for we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment, let us be therewith content." 1 Timothy 6:6-8
III. Did Job fear loosing his health? He probably did because he had sore boils all over his body. "So went Satan forth from the presence of the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown. And he (Job) took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes." Job 2:7-8
Now, we should not fear loosing our health because our fears have a way of become a reality. Therefore, the Lord our God will give us the physical health that He want us to have in this life. "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul. prospereth." 3 John 1:21 "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning." James 1:17
THE WAY TO DEVELOP A FEARLESS LIFE I. If we want to develop a fearless life, we must obey the commandments of God because we are commanded not to be fearful. "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness." Isaiah 41:10
II. If we want to enhance a fearless life, we must know that Christ is our Saviour because He brought peace and good will unto all men. "And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born his day in the city of David, a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:10-11
III. If we want to enjoy a fearless life, we must understand the Divine Blessings of New Testament Christianity because God has given us His Spiritual Kingdom. "Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." Luke 12:32
THE BLESSING OF A FEARLESS LIFE I. Our love for the Lord our God will cast away all our fears because fear has torment. "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not make prefect in love." 1 John 4:18
II. Our knowledge of life and death will expel all of our fears because our God is the Lord of life and of death. "For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living." Romans 14:7-9
