Fear Wants to Keep You Trapped
5 Words in 1
His Love Is Fierce!
Before I call, before I ever cry
You answer me from where the thunder hides
I can’t outrun, this heart I’m tethered to
With every step, I collide with You
His Love Is Fierce!
The Chain Breaker Is at Work
This lady who came to Jesus had been sick so long, bent over for 18 years.
I’m sure she thought it was permanent. But Jesus said, “Should not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, be loosed from her sickness”?
A daughter of Abraham meant she was a part of the covenant that God made with Abraham. She wasn’t just any woman, she had rights and privileges because she was in the family line of Abraham.
Like her, you’re not just anyone, you are a child of The Most High God. If Jesus were here today, he would look at you and say, “Should not this son, should not this daughter of the Most High God be free from their sickness, free from their addiction, free from that depression”?
You have rights because of who you belong to, and you may have struggled in an area for a long time, but like with her, it is not permanent. Your day of freedom is here.
The Chain Breaker is at work.
Jesus said in verse 12, “Woman, you are loosed from your sickness.” God is saying that to you, you are loosed from whatever is holding you back.
You are being loosed from that barrenness. You are being loosed from that depression, that hurt and brokenness, that sickness and addiction. You are meant to walk free of these restrictions.
Things are going to fall into place, and yes, we have forces trying to stop us, but the forces that are for you are greater than the forces that are against you.
No chain is too much for our God, no addiction too great, no sickness too big, no enemy too powerful. God controls the universe.
He said in Jeremiah, “I will tear off their chains, and they will no more be enslaved”. If God doesn’t break the chain, he will simply tear the whole thing off.
The Psalmist said, “You can run through a troop or leap over a wall”. If God doesn’t remove the obstacle, then he will take you over it.
He knows how to get you to where he wants you and to see you through anything. I believe even right now, some chains are being torn off.
What’s held you back is not going to enslave you anymore. You are not a slave to fear, but chained to Grace. Chained to the King of Kings!
Coram Deo
CORAM DEO is a Latin phrase meaning “in the presence of God” As followers of Christ, we live our lives Coram Deo:
In the presence of God, under the authority of God, for the glory of God.
The Covenant Keeper
He is coming to you at your lowest point.
He heard the raw cry of your soul!
“Now!” your Father says. “You will know and see, that I AM the Covenant Keeper!”
Fear Wants to Keep You Trapped
Fear wants to keep you trapped.
It wants to keep you sailing around in this darkness, afraid of sleep, afraid of life, afraid of anything that frees you.
It will steal your joy and strength and make you to feel only numb to everything. It will hold you captive if you allow it to hold the key to that prison cell in your mind.
“Have courage, dear heart, for there is nothing to be afraid of and never has been.”
But oh, dear heart, you were created for so much more. You were created to love big, to move mountains and slay giants, to conquer these walls and do such beautiful things.
You were created by a loving God who beat back everything worth being afraid of so you could live your life abundantly, with boldness and confidence, because you are dearly loved and adored by the King of all Kings.
Don’t let fear have the last word. Don’t let fear have any word concerning you.
It doesn’t get to tell the story about who you are and what you are capable of. It does not determine your Kingdom Destiny.
You are loved deeply and fiercely and the world needs every courageous bit of you.
Have courage, dear heart, for there is nothing to be afraid of and never has been.
