Called for No Pressure Living
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. (Romans 8:14) Pressure is not guidance. Pressure is not wisdom. When your mind functions under pressure, it attracts more worry.

Refuse to Fear
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Fear is not from God, and it has no rightful place in your life in Christ. Scripture makes it clear that fear is a spirit, and God has not given it […]

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. (Isaiah: 41:10) The devil is powerless. Jesus made a public display of his defeat. And finally, after defeating […]
