  1. Praise the Lord, Oh my soul, Praise the Lord beloved.

  2. Thank you for tuning in to today's morning glory devotion.

  3. My name is Amanda Baidu from Harvest Shapelin International, Dyamico Marsi,

  4. and I'll be facilitating today's session. Kindly, let's pray. Father,

  5. We thank you so much for today. We thank you

  6. for such a beautiful morning, and we thank you for

  7. the opportunity to gather as your children to hear your word.

  8. We ask, o Lord, that you help us to understand

  9. this word and grant us the grace to apply its

  10. truth to our lives. In Jesus' name, Amen beloved. Let's

  11. take our confession from the Book of Joshua, chapter one,

  12. verse eight. This book of the Law shall not depart

  13. out of my mouth, but I shall meditate in it

  14. day and night, that I may observe to do according

  15. to all that is written in it. For then I

  16. will make my way prosperous, and then I will have

  17. good success, Amen beloved. Our topic for today is titled

  18. Thou shalt not fear, Thou shalt not fear, and our

  19. scripture reading is taken from Second Timothy chapter one, verse seven.

  20. For God has not given us a spirit of fear,

  21. but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Amen.

  22. Our second scripture is taken from Psalm twenty three years four.

  23. Yet though I walk through the valley of the Shadow

  24. of Death, I will fear no evil, for you are

  25. with me. Your word and your staff they comforts me. Amen,

  26. Thou shalt not fear. Beloved, we have not been given

  27. the spirit of fear, but of power, love, and sound mind.

  28. As believe us. We are expected to live bold and

  29. courageous lives to the glory of God, not to be

  30. crippled by the spirit of fear. It is often said

  31. that faith and fear are like opposite ends of a spectrum.

  32. Just like faith, fear is also like a force that

  33. moves things accept and moves them in the negative direction.

  34. Fear can gripe your mind, your thoughts, your actions, and

  35. your whole life as a whole, making sure that you

  36. never fulfill the assignments God has set for you. Throughout

  37. the scriptures, we see how mighty men of God like

  38. David moved with courage and battle, knowing that God was

  39. on their side. Beloved, the battle of life requires that

  40. we move with power and boldness, and the spirit of

  41. fear is designed to cripple us from achieving this. Fear

  42. played out in the story of Moses, who almost missed

  43. the call of God on him because of perceived disability.

  44. In Exodus chapter four, in numbers chapter thirteen, the ten

  45. Israelite spies, we're so crippled in fear that they missed

  46. the Promised Land, with the exception of calib and Joshua,

  47. who rather shows courage in the Lord. There are many

  48. more stories like this in scripture which demonstrate to us

  49. that fear will never produce victory. Beloved, timidity is not

  50. a desirable trait in the Kingdom of God. It is

  51. not from God, so you must not accept it. Do

  52. not allow fear to make you paranoid and unable to

  53. live out God's purpose. Fear is a currency. It's a

  54. currency of consent to the devil. So the more you

  55. meditate on the lies and tricks of the enemy instead

  56. of the word of God, the more you become enslaved

  57. with the spirit of fear. Refuse to live in fear,

  58. standing the power of God, and walk in victory. Beloved,

  59. Fear enterst through the mind, through our eye and ear gates.

  60. So we must block the access to the world and

  61. allow the word of God to set the confines of

  62. our thoughts life, and always constantly be on the prayer watch.

  63. Let us not expect, anticipate, and receive the things fear brings,

  64. but rather live in the spirit of power, love and

  65. sound mind, working as blood boats and redeemed children of God. Beloved,

  66. Thou shalt not fear, shalloon our memory Versus taken from

  67. Psalm twenty seven, verse one. The Lord is my light

  68. and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The Lord is

  69. the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid? Amen? Please,

  70. let's pray Father, We thank you so much for this

  71. reminder that timidity and fear is not what you have

  72. given us in the Kingdom. We pray Father that you

  73. help us to be able to block all the channels

  74. of fear and the portals that we have allowed into

  75. our minds through our thoughts, the things we watch, the

  76. things we hear, the common decisions we have. Father, help

  77. us to block all those access points of fear and

  78. rather meditate on the word of God. Rather, let your

  79. word be the filter for our perspective and do just

  80. the confines of our thoughts that will be emboldened with

  81. power to work this walk of faith in victory in

  82. Jesus' name. Amen, beloved bease stay tuned for more spirit

  83. filled content, and have a wonderful day. Shaloon.
