Psalm 27:1 The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear or dread? The Lord is the refuge and stronghold of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
Dread is nothing mre than expecting something bad, unpleasant to happen. It is planning not to enjoy something you need to do. Here is why that is dangerous: it's the very opposite of hope and faith. Hope is confident expectation of good and faith always trust God for the best. Faith is what God tells us to live by. We are to do all things in faith! We are to live with a positive expectation of joy and excitement, not an energy draining dread. With God on your side, there is NOTHING you cannot overcome.... That includes dread.
2 Timothy 1:7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, (of cowardice, cringing, fawning fear) but He has give. Us a spirit of POWER and of LOVE and of CALM and WELL balanced mind and discipline and self control.
Too many times we try to fight battles within our own strength and the, when we inevitably fail, we get frustrated and want to give you.
The Word of God is the best solution for dread, fear, and worry. Put your HOPE in God's Word. Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are directed and established by The Lord. For it is WITH God ALL things ARE possible. Have a VERY BLESSED Thursday ALL! God LOVES you and so do I ! Father God, guide me today to do all things that will bring glory and honor to Yôu Amen
