Moving From Fear into Blessing

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.- 2 Timothy 1:7

There are troubles on earth. But we belong to a kingdom that cannot be shaken. This is why God has given the Holy Spirit to us as our advantage on the earth.  The kingdom we came out from as an unbeliever is a kingdom of fear and worries. Some even become worried whenever they are not worried. For in that kingdom, they do not expect good things out of life.

For instance, Abraham the father of faith took Lot on his journey to the promised land out of sympathy. But because of the little blessing that came on Lot, he despised Abraham. Beloved, you don't really know people until they are lifted. He caused trouble for Abraham. He did not even respect him or treated him as his father. He raised him to the limelight, but God promised to raise a Messiah out of Abraham, so that all men can be blessed through him.

Lot had no respect for vision, he only had respect for what he could see. He could not see Abraham becoming a father of nations as God promised him. After all, age had caught up with Abraham on the wrong side. Beloved, no one knows your end. It is a matter of time, the elephant will outgrow the goat, for elephants have the gene of greatness in them. We should always remember that God usually plants greatness in unlikely places. Even our Lord Jesus came out of a dry root.

Many today are under this bondage of fear. Some are so insecure that they cannot stand your being blessed. Beloved, there is no reason for insecurity and fear. The same God that multiplies somebody can multiply you the same, the Holy Ghost can help you, he is your advantage.
