August 6, 2018 UCB Word For Today Devotional : How to overcome fear (2)

- , ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

‘His compassions fail not. They are new every morning.’
Lamentations 3:22-23 KJV

Cardinal J.H. Newman said, ‘Fear not that thy life shall come to an end, but that it shall never have a beginning.’ If you let fear take over your life, you’ll never fully live. The truth is that many of our fears are totally unfounded. 

Haven’t you found that to be so? Studies show that 95 per cent of what we fear is baseless, and the rest are things we must learn to live with. Perhaps the best approach is to adopt the attitude of the poet Gertrude Stein, who said, ‘Considering how dangerous everything is, nothing is really frightening.’ Humanly speaking, there are no guarantees in life. 
We look to many things to protect us: insurance policies, burglar alarms, travellers’ cheques, aspirin, umbrellas, GPS systems, and airbags. But the truth is that life is dangerous, damaging to your health, and will eventually kill you. So you might as well live to the fullest. Shakespeare said, ‘He is not worthy of the honeycomb who shuns the hive because the bees have stings.’ Don’t let fear keep you from taking small steps in your development. 
You never know where they may lead. There are two things that are ever-present with us in life: fear and faith. And every day you live, you choose one or the other. Jeremiah chose faith. He wrote: ‘Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. 
They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion…therefore I hope in Him!” The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him’ (vv. 22-25 NKJV).
Job 30-31, 1 Corinthians 7:1-19
