| Description: | “The sluggard says `There is a lion in the road…” (Proverbs 26:13). We think there are huge lions on our roads of life. One is fear of failure. Jesus never considered success or failure in His life; He simply went on with duty and love and then was crucified for His efforts. The fearful man is a fruitless man because he is fearful. “For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear, I will help you” (Isaiah 41:13). Much has been written on the will of God, but His promises are His wills for us. “…Before [you] call, I will answer; while [you] are still speaking, I will hear” (Isaiah 65:24). Blessed promises! |
