Fear Quotes
-
A community of Jesus which seeks to hide itself has ceased to follow him. 'Neither do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on the stand.' … The bushel may be the fear of men, or perhaps deliberate conformity to the world for some ulterior motive.

When you are in a place of fear, everything in you will want to run, but I challenge you to run to it. It will build your confident trust in Him when you see that the very place that fear is, is the same place that fear will be conquered. Be encouraged by what God did for Moses, Joshua, Daniel… and what He has done for me time and time again. When you let God lead, you might find yourself in some rather scary places, but remain steadfast in Him and confident that He will bring provision and fight on your behalf. It’s in those times that miracles happen and nations change.
