Part 2: Fear Not Series
Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Nov 1, 2019 (message contributor)
Summary: What are you afraid of? Is it the dark? Is it strangers? How about the fear of heights or closed spaces? Many of us have these fears and have a hard time getting over them.
Why are we not that strong? What makes us fear the repercussions of speaking out about Jesus? Jesus once told the devil himself to get behind Peter and basically “leave him alone!”
Jesus is still issuing directives like that from His perch in Heaven. When a person is saved...when they accept Jesus as their personal Savior, He is ready to defend them. He has countless angels to dispatch and guess what...Satan is scared to death of Jesus!
If we have learned anything at all...it is that we are to FEAR NOT! Jesus has said that if you use His name that the devil will flee.
This should all be a “No-brainer”, but for many it is NOT. That is where you and I come in. We could place our hands on their shoulders and say, “FEAR NOT.”
Jesus, at His departure, told His disciples and therefore we disciples that we could do bigger and better things. He gives us the power. We need to use it. Amen.
