Psalm 23:4 Fears!


Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, 




The valley of the shadow of death. To understand the meaning of this sentence we have to understand  that valleys are fears. Fears that Cripple us and debilitate us. Many of us are going through our own valleys and we have to be very careful because fear has the power of parallizing us. Fear is a very powerful emotion that makes us loose courage to get out of the valley. Fear does not come from God for God's perfect love casts out fear. HE has not given us a spirit of fear. Fear is from the enemy because he wants us there, buried in our own valleys.


I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff,

 they comfort me. Psalm 23:4


But the good news is that even though we walk through our troubles, our problems, our hurts. Even though we have been betrayed, even though we feel drowning in them and we can't even gasp for air the Lord's mission is to lead us through the valley step by step with the rod, like a Shepherd does with his sheep. When we go through valleys, God is with us. The deeper our valley is,  the closer we want to get to him, close to him. Because we were meant to have this intimacy with him. God wants us to talk to HIM about our fears, to talk to our own fears. But HE doesn't want us talking to ourselves, for when we do WE make our own decisions and we are not able to help ourselves when you are this deep..my pastor Rick Blackwood from Christ Fellowship said in one of his sermons: "Great power is released when you speak to your fear about the power of your God." The God Almighty. Powerfull sentence!

God wants us to come to HIM, to trust him completely and to know that HE is with us, taking care of us, providing for us. If you could only give it a try! God's love is so overpowering. HE was there yesterday, HE is here today and HE is there tomorrow waiting for you, longing for you just to reach out to HIM.. I remember before I came to know JESUS I used to be so fearful of everything.. my fears will not let me in peace. I felt so miserable, I was abnormally afraid of death of what could ever happen to me to my daughters it was so horrible, I was so depressed until my valleys became SO deep that I had to reach out to him, pleading for help!
And then I found HIM and my life changed completely.. It's still changing day by day, step by step. In God's timing not in mine. But I reach to HIM every time.




Do you want to try it?

Just follow me.. with your body, with your spirit and with your soul..

Today, I confess that I am a sinner, that my sins separate me from you dear GOD.. today I confess with my mouth that I believe that JESUS came to this earth sinless to pay for my sins so that I may live eternally..Today I choose to accept JESUS as my LORD and savior.  Take my life dear GOD.. I don't know much about you but you know everything about me LORD.. use me and mold me and show me my dear LORD your righteous ways.. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

If you REALLY just prayed this prayer... get ready for your life is about to change.. mine did 360 degrees.   I would love to hear from you and what you just felt accepting Christ. Post your comments.. 
God Bless you all..
