                         Be Not Afraid


Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord thy God is with you. Set
your faces to seek Him, and He will save you out of all your troubles. Come
over into My camp, My warriors, for I have much to train you. I desire to
lead you into battle and to overcome all that has been thrown against you.
For it is not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit.

It is not with your own intellect that you would war. I would have you not
trust in your own power. I would instead will for you to come before Me with
no knowledge and be filled with My wisdom. Yes, this battle is not yours,
but the Lord's, and I will indeed fight it. Those that would fight in their
own strength, I would ask you to cease from your worry. Have I not said
that in your weakness I am made strong?

Stand therefore in the full armor of God, and fight the good fight of faith,
looking unto Jesus, the author and the finisher of your faith, who will lead
you into all battle. Yes come before Me as you are. Take no thought as to
how you would fight, because I fight for you.
