“The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.”
Proverbs 21:31
Introduction:
- A young man recently reminded us of the general fear of men, for they are afraid of many things.
- A woman in our church was saved from bodily harm in a serious auto accident only two days ago.
- Think about the things that steal peace and cause many to fear … jobs, health, travel, politics, finances, enemies, children, career choice, storms, diseases, war, childbirth, terrorism, etc.
- How safe are you? Do you know you are perfectly safe as long as you fully trust the Lord?
- How safe are you? The bravest people in the world should be Christians … consider the martyrs!
- Can you sing Psalm 3 and 18? David faced more danger than we can imagine, but God saved him!
- The Lord will bring frightening events and situations into your life to build your faith and get Himself glory, and we prepare ourselves for those events and situations by assimilating a study like this one.
