"Stuck Because Of Fear"

The Israelites ended up stuck in the wilderness for years and it all started with fear and them not being able to see themselves as bigger, stronger, more valuable to the plan of God than that of a grasshopper.

Numbers 13

But they weren't the only ones. Peter ended up stuck, paralyzed by fear out on a lake of water, unable to move forward with his life because in his mind, he was already defeated. 

Matt 14

And then there's David's brothers who ended up missing out on their BIG chance to defeat Goliath and be known as Heros; all because they were stuck in fear and afraid to fight. 

1 Samuel 17

Beloved, you will never get out of the wilderness you're in, you will never get out of the boat you're in, you will never win as long as fear is winning. 

You will always be stuck because of fear as long as you allow fear to show you things a certain way, unaware that really you're leaning on your own understanding and not the LORD's understanding of things .

When you really begin to trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding..Faith comes in and breaks the power of fear...

Faith comes in and shows you that things can be different, different from what you're seeing, what you're feeling, and fear had you believing. 

Focus Points:

Father God,

Help that one that's feling stuck, paralyzed, defeated, no bigger than grasshopper.

Help them to change their perspective and see that for every wilderness, there is provision.

Help them see that for whatever boat they find themselves in, whatever they're drowning in, there is JESUS.

Help them see that for every giant they're afraid to face, there is David.

Help them see that they don't have to remain stuck.

Help them see they don't have to do things alone and on their own.

They can live,  they can move forward with their lives, they can WIN.

In Jesus name. 

Amen.

Until Next Sunday.
