My Dad is the King
"Dear friends, don't be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot do any more to you after that. But I'll tell you whom to fear. Fear God, who has the power to kill you and then throw you into hell. Yes, He's the One to fear."
Luke 12:4-5
Luke 12:4-5
Did you know that in the spirit world you are royalty?
In the natural world your life might seem small, one of the masses, but when you accepted Jesus Christ as Lord, you became a child of God (John 1:12).
If God is your Father, then each of you are princes and princesses of His kingdom. So, why would we bow down to the demands of those who threaten evil on us.
There are times when believers might be intimidated into silence, judged into irrelevance, and persecuted into hiding, and yet why should we be afraid? Why should we shrink back?
We are children of the God of the universe and He has our back.
Even if the world throws its worst at us, we have a kingdom that is eternal. So why am I so afraid of those around me?
If I live my life to please anyone, it should be my heavenly Father that I please. He holds my life and soul in His hand. He offers me salvation and eternal life. Who on earth can compete with that?
