Never, Ever, Ever Allow Fear To Stop Or Halt God's Plan For Your Life

If you have been in the kingdom any amount of time you have probably heard what the letters stand for the word FEAR.

Let me tell you right now that the concept of fear is generated from satan. God does not give us a spirit of fear but of power, love and a sound mind. A good gauge or marker to give you a clue that you are right on target with God's plan for your life is if fear tries to enter into your life and cause you to doubt. By now you should know that I use examples a lot to illustrate a point or lesson learned. They seem to be from my own life and experiences that allows me the opportunity to use them to help keep you from walking into road blocks placed right before you.
My latest example is what happened to me yesterday and how I was redeemed today. What I published yesterday had another paragraph written in it that I deleted. The reason I deleted it was due to the fact that I was suppose to follow through with something yesterday and I let the words of another cause fear to rise up in me. I have shared with you on numerous occasions that the ladies I visit at the nursing home love to sing 'Let Me Call You Sweetheart" at the conclusion of my visits. I see smiles upon their faces. Holy Spirit nudged me to purchase a CD player for my friend and to take to her some praise/worship/preaching CD's. I purchased the player along with a CD. I even took it with me into her room last night to bless her with it. It was as I was walking in the facility I asked one of the employees if it was allowed and was it a good idea. Well, I was discouraged by the words spoken to me, that she would hate to see it come up missing one day. Not that it would happen but she has seen it happen before. I allowed those words to override the words of Holy Spirit that told me to bless her with it.
After church today I was going to take it back to the store until I felt nudged to go visit my friend again today. I was visiting with her and I told her what I had for her yesterday in the bag and that the worker suggested not. I then saw her roommate had a CD player also. I asked her if she would like it and out to the car I went to bring it into her. I set it up for her and she read the manual while I went to the car for CD's I had set aside for her. Oh my gosh, now I see why Holy Spirit wants it in their room. I played the various songs to let her know what was on each CD and to my surprise the woman that was not necessarily demonstrative started raising her hands to praise the Lord. My friend was so happy to see this. She kept encouraging her and the other roommate was singing along with the songs. Everyone was happy while the music played. At one point I felt the presence of God in the room. What a blessing it was to me. If you know anyone living in a nursing home never forget the power that music plays. Even to someone that was not necessarily raised in a charismatic setting, I found that they naturally raised their hands to worship Jesus. Do not underestimate the power of music. As the presence of God was in that room I reached for my anointing oil and asked if anyone wanted to be blessed with it. That was the best part of the visit. I was able to anoint and speak a blessing prayer over each one. It was that good that I said I myself cannot miss being blessed in this atmosphere, I then anointed my forehead with the oil that was still residue on my finger. God is good all the time and all the time God is good.
Do you see what I would have missed if I would have caved into the words of fear via the employee? Let me encourage you today that if the vision/plan is so big for your life that you may become puzzled at the thought of how it will come to pass, that is the first clue to let you know that it is not your plan but it is God's plan for you. Hold on to it with all of your might and do not let go for one day soon and very near you shall see it come to pass. In the meantime keep trusting and obeying the promptings of Holy Spirit and wait with expectancy. I am being shown a red rose that in an instants time went from the tightly closed form to the beautifully opened up form, it time lapsed in the matter of a second no waiting involved for this metamorphosis. Be encouraged and know that all things are possible to those that believe through Christ Jesus. What an exciting time in which we live in now.
