"Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him, so our land will be filled with his glory." ~Psalm 85:9 NLT
Have I mentioned how much I love the Psalms? Yes!? Oh bother... Well. This is yet another great verse in the Bible (although I'm pretty sure ALL of the verses in the Bible are great) that can help us combat fear!
First of all, we have a promise - "surely His salvation is near," and because of this "our land will be filled with His glory." With the promise, however, is one condition: "to those who fear Him." Where is my focus!? What or who am I focusing on? Am I concentrated on the knowledge that Jesus can overcome everything, or am I being blinded by the things of the world, the Devil's tricks? Jesus, that lovely fellow I try to trust in brings salvation to those who accept Him. I accepted His salvation - so my life (land) will be filled with His glory. If I am filled with the glory of God it's not going to be easily contained. It's going to leak out. And others will see, and others will come to know God. I believe it.
Will you believe it?
