“Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32
Worry has no place in the life of the child of God. It is not God’s will that we live in anxiety and fear.
Fear not!
You are part of the flock of God. God does not see you as someone at distance. You were chosen in Christ before the world began. You are precious to Him, and He KEEPS you in His flock.
Fear not!
It is the God of Creation that still rules over His universe. God is not a tyrant to His children. God is not a judge over His children. God is a loving FATHER.
Fear not!
It is God’s pleasure to give to you the things you need for joy in this life. This does not mean that we get everything we want. It means that God is pleased to give us the joy of salvation even when the circumstances of life are all against us.
Fear not!
God not only has a storehouse of riches from which He can supply our every need, He has the church. And it is His pleasure to come commune with us as we worship Him as the Body of Christ in our local churches.
Fear not!
