Message: – Open Heaven 6 September 2021 Monday Daily Devotional

The Scripture contains a lot of fear not statements from God to His people. Fear is one tool the enemy finds most useful in making the children of God suffer failure, pain and destruction of destiny. Many a time, the things people are afraid of are not real, but their minds paint an imaginary picture of the object or situation out of proportion with the reality and the enemy helps to blow it up. Thus, people become afraid of things that should not instill fear in them.

Certainly, there are some situations that are truly terrifying, but the Lord our God still charges us not to be afraid, He wants us to know that with Him backing us up, nothing and no situation can have us at its mercy. Isaiah 41:10 says:

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”

Fear is an enemy; it paralyses the potential for greatness. The Bible says fear has torment (1 John 4:18). Fear makes the one full of it disobedient to God; fear makes a fellow lift his or her situation higher than God. Such was the case of King Saul who confessed that he had sinned because he feared the people and obeyed their voice, even against the instruction of God (1 Samuel 15:24). Being fearful is a sin that can lead one into eternity in the lake of fire. Revelation 21:8 says:

“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremonger, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

Of these sins, fearfulness is number one on the list. You have no business being fearful. Jesus our Lord is greater than any human being no matter his or her status; He is greater than any situation. Nothing and no one is a match for Him. Colossians 2:15 says Jesus has spoiled principalities and powers. Isaiah 8:12-13 says we should not fear their fear, but fear only God. Once we fear God, we would have no one else to fear. You cannot claim to fear God and others at the same time.

Key Point: – Open Heaven 6 September 2021

Go on your knees and confront anything, person or situation tending to make you afraid, in the name of Jesus. Command the spirit of fear to depart from you by fire, in Jesus name.

Open Heaven 6 September 2021 Monday’s Hymn

HYMN: I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR

1.   I need thee every hour,
most gracious Lord;
no tender voice like thine
can peace afford.

Refrain:
I need thee, O I need thee;
every hour I need thee!
O bless me now, my Saviour,
I come to thee.

1.   I need thee every hour,
stay thou near by;
temptations lose their power
when thou art nigh.

2.   I need thee every hour,
in joy or pain;
come quickly, and abide,
or life is vain.

3.   I need thee every hour;
teach me thy will,
and thy rich promises
in me fulfill.
