PJP2 THANKS TEXT - 161031 - ON FEAR....NO fear - 2 Timothy 1:6-7 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."For This Reason I Remind you To Fan Into Flame The GIFT Of God, Which Is IN you through the laying on of my hands, For God Gave us A Spirit NOT of fear BUT Of POWER And LOVE And Self-control.".... I am so Thankful that God The Father understands us so well that He Knows, left to our own devices, we so quickly slip into that spirit of fear which the world offers as 'the way'.....which leads to darkness, doubt, destruction and ultimately death. BUT as our Lord Jesus Shares with us..... John 14:6 (ESV)...."Jesus Said to him, 'I Am The Way, And The Truth, And The Life. No one Comes To The Father Except Through Me.'".... John 8:12 (ESV)...."Again Jesus Spoke to them, Saying, 'I Am The Light of the world. Whoever Follows Me Will NOT Walk in darkness, BUT Will Have The Light Of Life.'”.... John 16:33 (ESV)...."Jesus Said, 'I Have Said These Things to you, That In Me you May Have Peace. In the world you Will Have tribulation. BUT Take Heart; I Have Overcome the world.'” Thus, we can say, In Him...ON FEAR.....NO fear! My Prayer of Thanks for us today would be....Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, Thank You for Your Presence and Your Continuous Encouragement as we move forward in our lives. Lord Jesus, Help us to Grow ever Deeper into Your Presence in our Souls. Holy Spirit, we Surrender to You and Ask You to Remove any remnant of the spirit of fear that has blinded us so long. Father God, Open our Inner Eyes to See Your Way, Follow Your Light and to Take Heart In Your Son's WORD in our Souls. In Your Name, Lord Jesus, we Lift Up our Prayers and Praise.....Amen and Amen....jaj
