God Has Everything Under Control!November 06, 2004 Author: Rev. Kip B. Banks, Sr. "Fear not, neither be discouraged." Deuteronomy 1:21
Good morning beloved! Are you worried about what's going to happen in today's election? If you are today's devotion, by Bob Gass, reminds us to fear not, because God has everything under control. Are you feeling afraid today? If so, listen to these words from the God who loves you beyond expression, protects you around the clock, and blesses everything you put your hand to. When there seems to be no way out, He says to you, "…fear not: stand still [firm, confident, undismayed] and see the salvation [deliverance] of the Lord, which He will work for you today…" (Ex 14:13 AMP). When the problem looks too big, He says to you, "Be strong, courageous, and firm; fear not nor be in terror before them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you; He will not fail you or forsake you" (Dt 31:6 AMP). When you feel like you just can't cope anymore, He says to you, "…do not look around in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with my [victorious] right hand…" (Isa 41:10 AMP). When you long for peace of mind, He says to you, "Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance…continue to make your wants known to God. And God's peace…which transcends all understanding, shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds…" (Php 4:6-7 AMP). Now, go back and read those words again, then remember - God has everything under control! East Washington Heights Baptist Church |
