Grace and peace Saints.

We are still keeping with the theme of fear this week, because things are going on in the world that will instill fear.  But we ain’t having none of it.   

“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He might exalt you in due time:

“Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you” (1 Peter 5:6-7).

Most of us are familiar with verse seven, but verse six is important also.  We must humble ourselves before God, and He will exalt us.  He will take care of us, for He is able. When we encounter problems in our lives, our first instinct is to come at those problems in our own strength.  But God wants us to humble ourselves and come to Him.   Then we can come at those problems in HIS strength.  And the Lord our God is strong and mighty. The Lord our God is mighty in battle.  Let Him fight our battles.

Jesus never gets tired of us coming to Him with our problems.  So cast all your cares upon Him.  For He careth for you.

Be encouraged and look up, for your redemption draweth nigh.
