GOD our FATHER is the ONLY POWER (Psalm 62:11) and GOD has given HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON all power in heaven and earth (Matthew 28:18). The CHILDREN OF GOD must therefore be FEARLESS strong in the FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST!
Let us be reminded of the POWER of our Lord JESUS when he was here on earth at a point during his travels with his disciples in a ship.
“And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea,
insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep. And his
disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish. And he
saith unto them, [WHY ARE YE FEARFUL, O YE OF LITTLE FAITH]? Then he arose, and
rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. But the men
marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea
obey him!” (Matthew 8:23-27).
We must therefore have NO FEAR of anything or anyone in this
world!
“For ye are all the [CHILDREN OF GOD] by [FAITH IN CHRIST
JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).
“[WHO HATH SAVED US, AND CALLED US WITH AN HOLY CALLING], not
according to our works, but [ACCORDING TO HIS OWN PURPOSE AND GRACE], which was
[GIVEN US IN CHRIST JESUS BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN]” (2 Timothy 1:9).
“[EXAMINE YOURSELVES, WHETHER YE BE IN THE FAITH]; prove your
own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you,
except ye be reprobates?” (2 Corinthians 13:5).
“That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye,
being rooted and grounded in love” (Ephesians 3:17).
“[FOR GOD HATH NOT APPOINTED US TO WRATH, BUT TO OBTAIN
SALVATION] by our Lord Jesus Christ: (1 Thessalonians 5:9).
“[NOW FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR], [THE
EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN]” (Hebrews 11:1).
“[WHILE WE LOOK NOT AT THE THINGS WHICH ARE SEEN], but at the
things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; [BUT THE
THINGS WHICH ARE NOT SEEN ARE ETERNAL]” (2 Corinthians 4:18).
[KEEP YOURSELVES IN THE LOVE OF GOD, LOOKING FOR THE MERCY OF
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST UNTO ETERNAL LIFE]” (Jude 1:16-21).
“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil
heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another
[DAILY], while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the
deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the
beginning of our confidence stedfast [UNTO THE END]” (Hebrews 3:12-14).
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and
the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” (2 Corinthians 13:14).
