WE WERE NOT CALLED TO FEAR MAN
“And don’t be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and will protect you. I, the Lord, have spoken!” (Jeremiah 1:8 NLT)
We were not called to be afraid of people.
The fear of rejection is a common problem in human beings.
The way of overcoming it is to be sure of who we are in God.
When we are afraid of people we are manipulated by others, we don’t confront those that verbally abuse us, it’s very difficult to express our own ideas, and we are afraid of saying something that will cause others to reject us.
We were not called to be afraid of people, but to have a fear of God in our hearts.
We must be emotionally healed, that way we can mature and become who God says we are and do what God says we can do.
“Get up and prepare for action. Go out and tell them everything I tell you to say. Do not be afraid of them, or I will make you look foolish in front of them.Jer. 1:17 NLT
Think about it:
Are you afraid of being rejected?
Is it easy or hard to express your ideas?
Who are you in God?
