Fear No Fear

“He responded, “Have the kind of trust that comes from God!” (Mark 11:22, CJB). We know that trust in God works by love (Galatians 5:6). That means that we have been given all the love we need to operate the trust. We have the ability to activate God’s trust with God’s love – because all the love we have originated with God too (1 John 4:19). This is His pattern. To give us of Himself so that we are able to engage what He gives us and succeed in it. He is so GOOD to us. He doesn’t think of something and make us figure it out. He isn’t simply the ‘idea guy’. He worked it all out before creation was created (Revelation 13:8). He knows what we need and when we need it. He knows what will work and how well. He gives us the power to run the tools that He gives us to succeed in the tasks that He calls us to. We are ALWAYS equipped. We are ALWAYS empowered. We are ALWAYS able. WHEN we are in Jesus (John 15:5). It’s a great system. Making sure we can succeed before He even talks to us about what we are going to succeed in. If we focus our lives the way He planned for us to – looking to Him first, then going hand in hand WITH Him – we will succeed in all that we do and NOTHING will be impossible for us (God and us together). Amen.
