July 1 “Fear Not”
“After these things the Word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying ‘Fear not, Abram. I am your Shield and your exceeding Great Reward’.”
Genesis 15:1
“Fear not” the Lord said to Abram that day
As He called him to do His will;
There’d be no maps or guidance systems
As He’d lead through valleys and up hills.
“Going without knowing where you’ll go”
Was the Lord God’s beckon call;
Yet continually He would lead this man of faith
As he cast upon Him his all.
The journey of faith is the journey of trust
In One Who knows the way;
That’s why on Him we must cast all our cares,
As we look to Him each day.
Sometimes the road will be rocky and steep;
Other times it’ll lead through valleys dark.
But in everything the God of Abraham will sustain us
Until the end from the time we embark.
Although so often we cannot see
Even the next step that lies ahead,
He still will be our Shield and exceeding Great Reward,
And will sustain us when fearful or sad.
A Shield to protect us
When fiery darts assail on every hand;
And our exceeding Great Reward
To assure us when by faith we take our stand.
In Him we find our Everything
To sustain us in our soul’s dark night;
And by faith we’ll continue on with Him
Who’s promised to sustain us by His Might.
So, do not fear what comes your way—
What others may say or do;
Stay focused and faithful to the One Who has called you
And He’ll always lead you through.
