Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him.” Psalms 34:9 NKJV

I read a quote from Spurgeon this morning in connection with this verse:

“Fear not the wrath of men, neither be tempted to sin through the violence of their threats; fear God and fear nothing else.”  The Treasury of David. Psalm34

It is a good thing to fear the Lord.

“But I will show you whom you should fear: fear Him who, after He has killed, has power to cast into hell; yes, I say to you, fear Him!” Luke 12:5 NKJV

Fear not the future. Fear not the past. Fear not what man can do to you. But fear God.

What glorious liberty there is in this one fact. We need not be afraid of any man, woman or child.

Only Christ has power over our souls. We are free when we fear no one but God, who can bring us into the light of Heaven or cast us into the darkness of Hell. He alone can bring clarity rather than confusion, peace instead of turmoil, joy rather than anger, and contentment in exchange for unhappiness and depression.

“Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.” John 8:36 NKJV

Free from fear, free from worry, free from anxiety, free from turmoil.

Enter into your freedom, for there is no want there. You will be made whole in Christ.  Glory to His Name!

“But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus … perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.” I Peter 5:10 NKJV
