The LORD
Will Be Your Confidence
The Lord by wisdom founded the earth;
by understanding he established the heavens; by his knowledge the deeps broke
open, and the clouds drop down the dew. My child, do not let these escape from
your sight: keep sound wisdom and prudence, and they will be life for your soul
and adornment for your neck. Then you will walk on your way securely and your
foot will not stumble. If you sit down, you will not be afraid; when you lie
down, your sleep will be sweet. Do not be afraid of sudden panic, or of the
storm that strikes the wicked; for the LORD will be your confidence and will
keep your foot from being caught.
Our biggest problem is fear. If our
fear is too intense, it will rob us of strength every day and every night.
Through our belief in God, we do not have to fear anything. We can eliminate
fear by getting rid of issues that we try to solve ourselves. Turn to God and
the fear goes away. Divine wisdom and understanding from God gets rid of fear
and replaces it with knowledge and confidence.
The critical thing about understanding
fear is to understand the real problem behind the fear. When it comes to fear,
we must make wise decisions based on God’s Word and build and love-trust
relationship with Christ.
Keep your eyes
on God
and you will soon
lose sight of your fears.
