'Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have I not told thee from that time, and have declared it? Ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? Yea, there is no God; (Isaiah 44:8).
When we know God and see Christ as our Redeemer and Saviour, we should have no fear neither be afraid. God had revealed all in the Scriptures about His Son Jesus Christ, from the Old Testament to the New Testament and we see have heard and seen the fulfilment. God had revealed to His people all that would happen aforetime and had declared it. Christ's disciples had the opportunity to see and to hear from his mouth, things to come and the fulfilment of that which was declared before hand. They were called to be witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and other parts of the world. We are also called to be witnesses in this dark world of sin. There is no other God then, as there is no other God now beside the God of Creation. We should not excuse our ignorance, in not accepting or being satisfied with one God. God is saying to us not to be afraid! He has proclaimed in His Word all that should happened long before they occurred, and have called us to be witnesses. Our God is Sovereign and All-knowing. He knows things no one else could possible know, except the One who created all things. It is God alone who can predict the future perfectly and precisely at all times, without any form of mistake. Let all who have been called, be His witnesses in telling the world that God is the Master of everything, proclaim the Gospel of salvation and of the soon coming of Christ. Let us not be discouraged about the bad situations, the challenges, and afflictions in this life; because God knows what is happening, since He has already proclaimed it. Keep your focus on God's promises and trust Him and we shall have no fear in this world, or be afraid because we know who God is.
Have a wonderful day

The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...
