Fearless PS. 91:5 #RTTBROS #Nightlight

Fearless PS. 91:5 #RTTBROS #Nightlight 


 Fearless in the Face of Night's Terrors

"Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;" (Psalm 91:5, KJV)

In our modern world, the "terror by night" may manifest in various forms – the blaring of a fire alarm, the sound of a break-in, the sudden onset of illness, or the devastating news of a loved one's passing. We live in a world filled with sorrow and the ever-present specter of death. It's natural to anticipate facing hardships and difficulties, whether in the dark of night or the brightness of day. However, as believers, we are promised that we need not be afraid, no matter what terror we may encounter.

But why should we, as children of God, be fearless in the face of these terrors? The answer lies in the comforting truth that our Heavenly Father is always with us, throughout even the loneliest and darkest of hours. He is our omnipotent Watchman, our tireless Guardian, and our faithful Friend. Nothing can happen without His sovereign permission, and even the depths of hell are subject to His authority. The darkness is as clear as day to Him, and He has promised to be a wall of fire around His people – an impenetrable barrier against all harm.

While those who do not believe in Christ may have reason to fear, with a Holy God above, a guilty conscience within, and a real Hell below, we who find our rest in Jesus are saved from these terrors by His abundant mercy. If we give in to baseless fears, we risk dishonoring our testimony and causing others to question the authenticity of our faith. Instead, we must stand firm, resisting the temptation to be afraid, lest we grieve the Holy Spirit through our lack of trust.

So, let us cast aside all gloomy thoughts and unfounded fears. God has not forgotten to be gracious, nor has He withheld His mercy. Even if our souls are shrouded in darkness, we need not be terrified, for the God of love remains unchanging.

Though the night may be dark and dreary, the darkness cannot hide us from our loving Father. He is the One who, tirelessly, watches over His children with a protective gaze. Take heart, for in Him, we can find peace and security, even in the midst of life's most terrifying moments.


A Faith that can't be tested can't be trusted!
