Psalm 56:11
"In God I trust; I shall
not be afraid. What can man do to me?" ESV
The greatest hindrance and
disabling factor of our success in the Christian walk is fear. Fear can so
overpower our faith and keep us from being effective witnesses and from growing
spiritually. This fear can be as simple as a rejection by family and friends if
we bring up spiritual matters. We have brothers and sisters around the world who
suffer much worse than peer rejection for their faith. They lose more than their
pride. Anyone who would reject, ridicule, injure, or even kill us for our faith
only touch the temporary. God is the Guardian of our soul, which is eternal.
What is there to fear from man?
Heavenly Father, some of us
have no idea what our fellow Christians over the world have suffered in Your
name. Yet we fear even being rejected or humiliated for our faith. We ask for
the fullness of the Holy Spirit to lead us into the truth of our total
protection against anything man can do to us. Help us develop the courage and
perseverance to do Your will in any circumstance. Help us overcome our fear, we
pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
