Iris: For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power, love and self-control (of discipline). (2 Timothy 1:7)
In order to reach this spiritual level, of faith and trust in God, we must be well grounded in the word, putting it into practice. The conviction of
Faith, believe, declare believing that God will do,
Putting the word into action. Knowing that everything God allows in our lives is for a purpose and that He will always be there to help us.
He will never put a burden on us that we cannot bear.
We must believe, trust and put into action,
As human beings there is fear, but as born again, that fear
It shouldn't exist because we already have a protective father. May he fight for us at all times, as long as we are in obedience and holiness, he always supports you,
But if as Christians and those who know the word, we walk in sin and do things that are not pleasing to God,
Things of the World (a lukewarm Christian)
Fear will always be in us.
And we will never go to the presence of God first to ask for his help and wait on him,
But due to lack of faith and patience, we are going to do what we should not.
He is very clear in his word.
Patiently, I waited on God, he heard me, and he helped me and took me out of the lake of despair, he straightened my steps.
In the midst of struggles and trials he is fighting for us.
It is believing, trusting and waiting.
