What Shall We Fear?

"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord; he brought me into a spacious place. The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?"Psalm 118:1, 5-6

          This Psalm is listed among the Thanksgiving Songs attributed to King David. These verses remind us today of something that is very important. Nothing that is done to us or happens in this life can take away God’s love for us or remove what He has done for us. While there appears to be many fearsome people and circumstances that could come against us, there is truly nothing that can be done to us that God is not mindful of and that He cannot rescue us from. Therefore, we have nothing to fear but the Lord Himself. 

           When we say we should fear the Lord we are not speaking of fear in the sense of being afraid; we are speaking of a reverential awe. We are to be in awe of His great power and majesty. As subjects kneel before the kings of this earth, we too should kneel out of respect and awe at the glory, majesty and power of our God. There is no one on this earth that compares to Him. There is no one who can replicate what He has done and is able to do. We are to give thanks to Him not just one day each year in November, but rather every day of our lives. His love is never-ending and comes without any conditions attached to it. We can call out to Him any time of the day or night and He will hear us. There is nothing the government or any individual can do to crush the hope that a Christian has. A place is reserved for us in God’s heaven. All He asks is that we live for Him. It is a small thing to ask seeing as there is no one in existence who can offer what God offers us. The key element in committing to honor and obey His precepts is forgiveness. It can be found nowhere else and in no one else. Only one man willingly went to a bloody cross to eradicate all sin for all time. There is no one else. He is worthy of all our praise. Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing.
