Sabbath 6-20-2015 Daytona Seventh Day BAPTIST Pastor Wray “The Landmine of Fear” Isaiah 41;8-13

 


Have you considered how your emotions effect your life? Love influences our feelings and behavior. The same is true of fear. It influences our thoughts, conduct and physical health. Fear can hold us back from what God wants for us. Our fears may be hidden and that makes them more dangerous. God is more powerful than any fears our mind can imagine. In verse 10, God says not to fear because He will hold us with His right hand. God says to be strong because He is with us. The Bible says a cheerful heart is good medicine. We should not have fear. Ephesians 1:3 Praise God who has blessed us with spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus. Our God will meet all our needs. In Hebrews, God said He will never leave us or forsake us. We are never left to stand alone. God is always there with us. Don’t Fear!!!

The Six Most Common Fears People Have Are:

1. Fear of poverty

2. Fear of death

3. Fear of sickness

4. Fear of old age

5. Fear of criticism

6. Fear of the loss of loved ones

Some fears are wise to have like a protective fear and the Fear of the Lord. We are to honor the Holy God whom we worship. We are not to deal with God like He is a toy for our pleasure! We are to have honor and have exaltation for the Holy God.

The negative fears that we have can enslave us. We need to be strong and know that God is with us. Fear should not hold us in its grip. God gave us promises so that we don’t have to fear. Fear is damaging and we can’t do God’s will. Our worries block our spiritual growth. This does not honor God in the least. Our anxiety is a way of saying that we do not think that God can protect us. Fear doesn’t fit the life of a Child of God! The fears we have, should be handled quickly by remembering God’s promise that He will handle ALL things for our good!!

Fear can come from sins we do or things we have been taught. Fear can come from doubt of God or ignorance of God’s Word. We must dwell on God’s Word and on His promises. God Said It and That Settles It!!!! The anxious person is afraid to take risks and will be scared to do any adventure God has prepared for them. They will miss out on blessings. They will be doubtful of themselves. Fear will dominate and will become a landmine that destroys their desires. You only get true freedom when you give control of your life to God. Let Go and Let God!! How do we get rid of enslaving fear? First we must step out on Faith. We must trust in the Power of God. Take your eyes off the problem and look at God instead. God will set us free!

Isaiah 64:4 God says He will free us from the landmine of fear. We must seek God thru His Word and trust Him to set us free. Why worry when you can pray? Trust in Jesus and He will lead the way. Understand that the Lord is with us and beside us as every moment. God loves us and promised to be with us. He says to not fear because He will help us and uphold us with His right hand. God will strengthen and help us always. ALWAYS!!!

This is our wonderful heritage as a Child of God. Embrace this and embrace God. Don’t miss the wonderful things that God has for us. Don’t miss out on things because you are in the bondage of fear. God promised that He will NEVER leave us or forsake us!! God wants us to proclaim our Faith and Confidence in Him. God wants to bless us.

 


AMEN

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
