God has given us power, love and a sound mind

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

When we are griped with fear or depression, take heart, for they didn't come from God. We can be comforted that God has given us a spirit of power, love and a sound mind.

God has already given us the spirit of power. Use that power to believe unto Jesus and His finished work at the cross. When we meditate on the truth of the His word, there will be power rising up from within and strength to deal with the challenges of life.

God has already given us the spirit of love. When we focus on the finished work at the cross, we will experience the love of God for us. We can love for God first love us. He sent Jesus to be the sacrificial lamb of our behalf so that we are plentifully provided for.

God has already given us the spirit of sound mind. Jesus had bequeathed His peace to us. This is not worldly peace but the peace that come from the understanding that God is in control. There is nothing that He will not do for a Christian to turn his/her into a masterpiece which reflects the glory of Jesus.

Be at rest when the devil "roar" at you. He had been de-toothed. He goes around seeking whom he can devour. He can't devour a Christian who is restful within.

Use the spirit of power, love and a sound mind in all our situations. Relax and see the wonderful working miracles of God. Hallelujah!
