July 13 ~ I HAVE NO REASON TO FEAR:  COMFORT IN TROUBLESOME TIMES

Matthew 14:26-27 “And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, it is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.  But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.”

We as saints have no reason to fear because we have the whole armour of God and with it we must continue to fast and pray hard during this pandemic.  When the disciples saw Jesus walking on the sea, they thought they saw a ghost and began to cry out in fear.  But Jesus made known who he was to calm their fears.  As saints of God, Jesus has so graciously revealed himself to us, reminding us in His Word of who we are and what we have through Him.  Today, let us rejoice in the fact that we are His children, covered by His blood and comforted in these troublesome times.
