Matthew 1:18-25

Fear can paralyze your faith. God's gifts are often wrapped in problems and other things that may cause us fear.

3 Things that Fear Can Rob


1) fear of perception - what will people think? If you weren't so gifted you wouldn't be so hated. Misperception often rob us from our gifts.

2) fear for provision - can I afford this gift or do I have what it takes to receive it? Sometimes you need provision that money cannot buy. God got you covered so fear not. He shut certain doors to open new ones. The doors God open no man can shut and those He shut no man can open. Where God guides you He will provide.

3) fear of providence (of God guide) If I go will God be with me? We look back and say it was good that I went through what I went through because it was good for me. So thank you for hating me because if you had not done that I might not have went the way I did.. Where God is taking me is outside of the box. God has away of turning a barn into a penthouse.

*Stop worrying about how things are going to turnout. If you didn't start it you don't have to worry how it's going to end.
*Don't touch things while God is working on it. Be still and let God be God. It's still under development don't touch it.
*God doesn't wait for people to reject you to set up you're place. Your mission if you expect it is to find a place. God is the milk of the word that's why He was wrapped in milk rags.
*Fear not the Lord is with you that is in you conceived by God.
