Take the Emotion Out of It

by Tonja Taylor  
8/27/2022 / Christian Living


It is the Lord Who goes before you; He will [march] with you; He will not fail you or let you go or forsake you; [let there be no cowardice or flinching, but] fear not, neither become broken [in spirit—depressed, dismayed, and unnerved with alarm].--Deut. 31:8, AMPC

A few years ago, I was wrestling with a decision. I wanted to do the right thing. I did not want to displease my Daddy God. I wanted to do His perfect will.

"Take the emotion out of it and just do it," the Holy Spirit told me. That gave me rest and peace. When we ask the LORD to help us know and do His will and not miss it, He is faithful to answer!

The LORD our dear Father does not want us to fear. One minister (and probably many) mentioned that there are at least 365 Scriptures that tell us not to fear--one for every day of the year. 

Even as Believers in Christ Jesus--Who is our Peace--we must guard ourselves against allowing fear to afflict us, even subtly. The LORD has to turn on the light with His Spirit of Truth and reveal to us where we have been in fear.

For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father!--Romans 8:15, AMPC

When we are upset, anxious, stressed, concerned--whatever we call it--it is a form of fear. The root of fear is judgment and condemnation. We fear the LORD will judge and condemn us.

God in His infinite mercy and wisdom has chosen to forgive us and instead, put the penalty for all our sins, for every way we’ve missed the mark of His holiness, upon Jesus—Who paid that price at the cross by shedding His holy blood (John 3:15-17). Hallelujah!

When I went to college years ago, I was a freshman, away from home and from all that was familiar. But I brought my Bible with me; the one I had been awarded when I was 7, in Sunday School.  The LORD led me back to a verse He'd used to help me through many fearful things: Psalm 34:4 (AMPC), which states, "I sought (inquired of) the Lord and required Him [of necessity and on the authority of His Word], and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears."

Truly, He has delivered us from fear, and just like how we must choose to claim and possess our healing and prosperity and every other Blessing and right of the blood Covenant we have with Yahweh (the Covenant God!) through Jesus His Son, we can choose to claim and possess our deliverance from fear. Hallelujah!

We cannot live the victorious Christian life alone. We must have the help of the Holy Spirit, Who is God. He will help us, and He is waiting for us to call on Him. Hallelujah! Great is the goodness and faithfulness of our LORD!

Reading and speaking and listening to the Word and true worship, plus being part of a Bible-believing Church (where there is a spiritual covering/protection) and having a church family that loves and prays for you; as well as talking to the LORD (prayer), are the rock of the solid, peaceful, joyful, productive, successful Christian life.

Call on the LORD for help in getting rid of fear and replacing it the things of God today. He will help you, and give you peace as you trust Him!

I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]—John 16:33, AMPC

For everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord [invoking Him as Lord] will be saved.--Romans 10:13, AMPC
