The Leverage Devotional by Apostle Segun Obadje 15 January 2024: FEAR NOT
Topic: FEAR NOT
2 Timothy 1:7; Isaiah 43:1-2
2 Timothy 1:7 ‘For God has not given you the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love and of sound mind’
1 But now, this is what the Lord says—
he who created you, Jacob,
he who formed you, Israel:
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
2 When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze
Leverage Devotional For Today Message:
In Christ Jesus, the spirit of fear is a stranger; it is not part of the new creation package. It’s not part of the pact that ratified the new covenant, and neither is it part of your fellowship and communion with Christ. We have come to God, the Judge of all; we have come to the spirit of just made perfect; we have come to Jesus Christ the mediator of the new covenant; we have come to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than the blood of Abel (Hebrews 12:23-24). Beloved, you are justified, no longer condemned and you have acceptance with God. Scriptures tell us that there is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1). Therefore, there is no reason for you to walk or live in fear. The acceptance you have with the Father should make you bold, confident and fearless. You have been redeemed by the Lord; therefore, do not fear (Isaiah 43:2).
Here is another reason for you to not be afraid. The book of Isaiah 41:10 says, ‘Fear thou not for I am with you: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen you; yea, I will help you; yea, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness’. Beloved, the presence of God is with you. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Even when you pass through the valley of the shadow of death, there is no reason to be afraid because God is with you. This tells us that to overcome fear, you must be conscious and mindful of the presence of God. The Creator of heaven and earth is your God, and He says He will help you and strengthen you with the right hand of His righteousness. So there is no need to be afraid. The righteous is as bold as a lion (Proverbs 28:1). Are you righteous? Is God Almighty your God? Is He with you? If yes, then, Fear Not! There is nothing that the enemy can do against you because God is your Defender. I declare that the cover of God is upon you, and fear has no hold over you in Jesus’ name. Amen
My Solid Front (Confession):
Heavenly Father, I thank You because You have not given me the spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Therefore, I declare that the hold of fear is banished from me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Further Meditation: John 14:26-27; Hebrews 13:5; Deuteronomy 31:6
26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,
“Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”[a]
6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”
