Beware of the Snare

Image
The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in and puts his confidence in the LORD will be exalted and safe. — Proverbs 29:25  (AMP) Giving more weight to what people say or think about us, than we give to the Word of God, is a snare: a trap or a pitfall. The Message Bibles says, “The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in God protects you from that.” (Proverbs 29:25 ) As long as we are more concerned with what people say, than what God says, we will be disabled from fulfilling God’s purpose and plan for our lives. Close your ear to the opinion of people and keep your ear open to the voice of God. His Word will build you up and strengthen you. Trust Him and keep your confidence in Him always. For this is contained in Scripture: “Behold, I lay in Zion a choice stone, a precious corner stone, and he who believes in Him will not be disappointed.” (1 Peter 2:6 NASB)

He’s on Your Side

The LORD is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me? — Psalm 118:6 (NKJV) LORD Almighty, blessed is the one who trusts in you (Psalm 84:12 NIV). It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man (Psalm 118:8 NKJV). Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe (Proverbs 29:25 NIV). The Lord Is faithful. When all others forsake you, the Lord will stand with you and strengthen you, as He did the Apostle Paul, in 2 Timothy 4:16-17. With God on your side, who can stand against you? Trust in the LORD always, for the LORD God is the eternal Rock. (Isaiah 26:4 NLT)

Lean on the Lord

The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever leans on, trusts in, and puts his confidence in the Lord is safe and set on high. — Proverbs 29:25 (AMP) The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? (Psalm 27:1 NKJV). He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him (Proverbs 30:5b NKJV). Those who trust in, lean on, and confidently hope in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved but abides and stands fast forever (Psalm 125:1 AMP).

Totally Trust!

The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever leans on, trusts in, and puts his confidence in the Lord is safe and set on high.  — Proverbs 29:25 (AMP) The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? (Psalm 27:1) The fear of people and what they think, will hinder us from doing God's will. Let us put our trust in the Lord and keep it there. God is a shield to those who put their trust in Him (Proverbs 30:5). Do not be moved by what you can see, but by the God you believe in.
