STRONG
CONFIDENCE- JANUARY-7-2014
PROMISE
VERSE: -In the fear of the Lord one has strong confidence, and his children
will have a refuge. Proverbs -14; 26
Dear
friends every human must have strong confidence for peaceable living. God only
gives us strong confidence to live peaceable in this world. Without God’ help
we can live peaceable. Many people live without strong confidence; so people
live in weary and sorrow. God’s children get strong confidence in the fear of
God and his children also have a refuge.
1. Strong confidence is given to who fear God: - Joshua servant
of Moses walked in the fear of God. So after the death of Moses God gave him
strong confidence and authority to conquer the milk and honey flowing land Canaan
and defeated 14 strong and big kings of the land. He shared the land to the 12
tribes of Israel. God gave strong confidence and said that no man shall be able
to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will
be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you. Be strong and courageous, for
you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers
to give them. Be strong and courageous, do not be frightened, and do not be
dismayed, for the Lord God is with you wherever you go.
2. Strong confidence is given to those who call God: - Jabez
don’t want to live in sorrow, so he called upon the lord, who gave him confidence
and made him honorable among his brothers. Jabez was more honorable than his
brothers; and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, ‘because I bore him in
and pain and sorrow. Jabez called upon the Lord God of Israel, saying, “oh that
you would bless me ans enlarge my border, and that your hand might be with me,
and that you would keep me from harm so that it might not bring me pain and
sorrow. And God granted what he asked.
3. Dear friends’ today God will give strong confidence to
remove your pain and sorrow. When king David was greatly distressed he was strengthened
himself in the Lord his God. David inquired of the Lord, he answered him,
pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and rescue everything. Let us have
strong confidence in the lord to seek his face and get timely help. He will honor
you in the eyes of your enemies and give
strong confidence to overtake them.
