The Future is for the Unafraid!


The Future is for the Unafraid!

There is a current car commercial that says, “There are two kinds of people; those that fear the future and those that embrace the future; the future is for the unafraid!”

This is a true statement about our society there is so much turmoil, fear, hatred and anxiety that people are fearful at every level of their life. Many people are taking their own life for fear of the future. So many people are addicted to drugs, alcohol, sex of every perversion, violence, uncontrollable anger, control of others that they are destroying their life and the life of those around them. These are the ones who believe any promise of a better life no matter how farfetched it is; they will spend their whole sustenance on any miracle cure; they join any group that pays attention to them and tells them all they have to do is follow their leader; they join any religion that says they can make it without giving up their way of life.

Unless the Body of Christ (us Christians) start being the light and love of GOD to these that are fearful there is no hope for them. The world has no cure or relief from their fear because it is the cause of their fear.

This is a true statement! Many Christians are afraid of the future, they just want to hold on and make it to the end. They want to fly under the radar of the anti-christian groups that seem to be in control of everything in our world today. They try to buy peace from GOD by giving their money and time to any ministry that promises peace and prosperity; they don’t want to protest abortion even if they believe it is sin; they don’t speak against sexual immorality unless it is trending on social media; many of their friends and maybe some of their family do not know that they are a Christian.

There is a song from Bethel Music “Reckless Love” by Steffany Gretzinger, Christians that are unafraid know the reckless love of GOD for them. There is a song “Your Love Compels Me” by Doug Holck, this is the result of knowing GOD’s reckless love for us. When we are consumed by His Love we will be compelled by it to do whatever He says! No questions asked no holds barred we will do His will with our life until we have no life left. (I am seeking and yielding to this lifestyle.)

The future is for those who want to and will do the will of GOD because there is no good or pleasant eternal future for those who do not do the will of GOD, only for those who do the will of GOD.

Jesus said, “If you know the truth it will set you free.” Jesus “is the truth, the way and the life.” It is an inconvenient truth to those who are lost unless we live it for them and speak into their need so that they can see its reality and recognize their need for the truth.
