Guard Your Heart.

Fear Precedes Destruction.

"There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto you." (Deut 11:25). 

Never let fear creep into your heart through what you listen to, or watch on tv and the internet. Whatever you allow into your heart is what is fed to your mind, and it's your choice. Never let your mind be feeding off of these evil reports that have been targeted (i.e, formed and framed) at you. 

A Good Heart Is Like A Medicine. 

"A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones." (Prov 17:22). Your heart is all you've got to keep to live, and never your material belongings. Never let your heart fail you from seeing and hearing all the evil things happening all around us, it is nothing but the manifestation of demonic spirits that are gaining more access into the minds of many that unsaved - clearly a violation and intrusion. 

Always filter all your news through the Word of God, for fear is spiritual and a very strong force, but love is stronger! Let us focus our entire being on loving God Who is more than able to keep us rightly informed and protected. In light of this, here are two scriptural instructions in the book of Joshua 1:8-9 that we are never to neglect in such a time as this:

1- What we must NEVER STOP DOING.

"This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success." vs 8. 
You must learn how to use the Word of God in every conversation and discipline, and it's not a difficult thing to do. Wisely convey your hope, love and faith on every subject matter, and always stand by your words.  

2- What we must NEVER FORGET.

"Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest." vs 9.
Why then should we fear fear when God said He will go everywhere we go!? Caution: always let the peace in your heart direct you. Your new heart is a shared heart. It's God's heart given to you, and there are now two occupants - God and you, that should be in agreement on every single issue to the minutest detail. Anytime and every time we move without Him, we are always exposed. 

Therefore, let us pursue after God's own Heart like king David did, and let's see who can be against us.
