For God
has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and of a sound mind.”
-2 Timothy 1:7
The walls before you
have no foundations. The enemies you are frightened about are actually sacred
of you. The mountains before you may just be a mirage. Many times, fear
restrains people from tacking strides they ought to have taken. They get
concerned by the words of others, past experiences and learned responses to the
point that they get stuck on a spot, too afraid to move.
You have to realize
that, very often, God hides the miraculous in the ridiculous. A confused
wedding planner ran out of wine right in the middle of the ceremony. At his
wits end, he was brought before the Lord Jesus, who was neither a wine seller
nor a vine dresser. The Lord did not ask him to go and buy more wine. He did
not tell him his career was doomed and no one would trust him to plan their
weddings anymore. Instead, He told him to fill some jars of water. Totally
ridiculous! What was worse? He asked him to make sure the jars of water were
taken to the wedding chairman before it was even inspected or tasted. With just
faith in a hitherto unknown man, the man and his servants did as they were
told. The rest as they say is history.
“when the
master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know
where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master
of the feast called the bridegroom. And he said to him, Every man at the
beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the
inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!” John 2:9-10
If you really want to
make waves, you will have to advance bodly. As long as you have an instruction
from the Lord, the obstacles before you will only be setup for you to step up.
You can rebuild your home – it is not over! You can go back to school and get
the degree again. You can resurrect that business. You are not too old and is
not too late.
God has not given you
the spirit of fear.
Go boldly! You will do
well.
