I've been looking up Scripture about not fearing for an art idea I have. As I'm reading through all of these verses that say "fear not", I've come across one other thing they have in common. Many of them contain, "the LORD your God". I read verse after verse that contained that phrase and each time something moved in my spirit.
The LORD your God.
It's comforting, isn't it? It ought to be, if we know who God really is. He's personal...He's not just your neighbor's God, your friend's God, your mom's God...He's your God.
I don't know about you, but when I read that, it does something to me. It gives me hope, confidence, boldness...it enables me to stand once more in the face of difficulty. He's not just some God...He's MY God.
Take heart, beloved. He's not a far off God...unreachable and unapproachable. He's right here, closer than you can imagine...and He is YOUR God.
