About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR
I WOULD LIKE TO START THIS MESSAGE OFF BY REMINDING EVERYONE TO PLEASE PRAY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN HURT BY THE HURRICANE DORIAN AND FOR THE ONES THAT ARE STILL IN ITS PATH. THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DESTRUCTION CAUSED BY IT AND IF ANYONE CAN HELP THEM FINANCIALLY, PLEASE DO SO. THOSE PRECIOUS PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY IN THE ISLANDS, ARE GOING TO NEED IT. IF YOU CANNOT DO THAT, WE CAN AT LEAST KEEP THEM IN OUR PRAYERS.
NOW FOR MY MESSAGE. DO YOU REMEMBER THE STORY ABOUT THE MAN BORN BLIND? JESUS SPAT ON THE GROUND TO MAKE CLAY, PUT IT ON THE MAN'S EYES, TOLD HIM TO GO WASH IT OFF AT THE POOL OF SILOAM, WHICH HE DID, AND HE CAME BACK SEEING.
WHEN THE PHARISEES HEARD ABOUT THIS, THEY DID NOT BELIEVE THE MAN HAD BEEN BORN BLIND SO THEY CALLED HIS PARENTS AND ASK THEM. THEY TOLD THEM THAT HE WAS THEIR SON AND WAS BORN BLIND BUT DID NOT KNOW HOW HE RECEIVED HIS SIGHT AND SAID HE WAS OF AGE, ASK HIM. THEY SAID THIS BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID OF THE JEWS BECAUSE THE JEWS HAD ALREADY AGREED THAT IF ANYONE CONFESSED THAT JESUS WAS CHRIST HE SHOULD BE PUT OUT OF THE SYNAGOGUE. THESE MUST HAVE BEEN LIKE THE JEWS THAT PETER WAS AFRAID OF WHEN HE DENIED JESUS. NOW LOOK AT WHAT THE BLIND MAN SAID, "He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see." THIS MAN HAD NO FEAR, ONLY LOVE FOR THE ONE THAT OPENED HIS EYES.
LET US ALL PRAY THAT OUR LOVE FOR JESUS WILL OVERCOME ANY FEAR THAT MIGHT COME OUR WAY. WE SHOULD NEVER BE AFRAID AS PETER AND THE PARENTS OF THE MAN BORN BLIND WERE. I SAY THIS BECAUSE OF 1ST JOHN 4:17-18 WHERE IT SAYS "Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love." WE, AS BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN, HAVE ENOUGH POWER THROUGH JESUS TO DEFEAT ANYTHING THAT WILL COME OUR WAY. WE JUST HAVE TO HAVE FAITH TO BELIEVE WHAT JESUS SAYS AND ACT UPON IT. I AM, HOW ABOUT YOU?
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
