Title: What Are You Afraid Of?

Fear has a way of creeping in right when you’re trying to move forward. Just like Israel at the Red Sea, sometimes you find yourself trapped between what feels impossible in front of you and what looks like it’s chasing you from behind. And if you’re not careful, fear will distort what you see, control your decisions, disrupt your words, and even try to destroy your future.

But here’s the good news: The Lord will fight for you; you only need to be still (Exodus 14:14).

That means you don’t have to let fear call the shots this week. You don’t have to turn back to what God already delivered you from. And you don’t have to believe the lies that tell you your story is over. God’s love, His presence, and His power are still with you.

So, I’ll ask you again—what are you afraid of? If God brought you this far, He’s not about to leave you now. Trust Him, stand firm, and watch Him make a way where there seems to be no way.

Be encouraged this week,

Pastor Lamar Batiste, MTS
