Day 18 – Soul Detox

Psalms 91:1-16

Devotional

What you fear reveals what you value the most. What you fear reveals where you trust God the least.

What things are you not trusting God with that you need to?

What you fear reveals what you value the most.
That tells me something about me.

What you fear reveals where you trust GOD the least.
That tells me more about me.

What things are you not trusting GOD with that you need to?
I see that.

1. You who live in the shelter of ‘Elyon,

who spend your nights in the shadow of Shaddai,

2 who say to Adonai, “My refuge! My fortress!

My God, in whom I trust!” —

3 he will rescue you from the trap of the hunter

and from the plague of calamities;

4 he will cover you with his pinions,

and under his wings you will find refuge;

his truth is a shield and protection.

via Psalms 91:1-16 CJB;NASB – You who live in the shelter of – Bible Gateway.

Using His Creation ABBA explains in terms we can see and understand that HE is our refuge. HE is our protector. HE is worthy of our trust. His truth is a shield and protection for us. Because He IS Truth, all we have to do is believe Him and we will KNOW He is our shield and protector. Enjoy the short video below. Our GOD is for sure NOT a chicken but since He has built into the nature of a chicken such a protective instinct as to go up against something so much bigger than herself, would not her Creator, our ABBA, not shield and protect us?

Clean Conscience

Day 16 of Soul Detox

Are we gaining something from Soul Detox? We are one day beyond half way finished with the study.

2 Timothy 1:1-18

Devotional

There are four types of fears: fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of rejection, and fear of the unknown. It is very likely that you are struggling with one or more of these fears. These fears can paralyze you and keep you from God’s best. Remember what 2 Timothy 1 says in that God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, of love, and of self-discipline.

Which fears do you currently struggle with the most?

Truth?

Rejection.  I think.

For sure. It’s hard to be hated.

How about you?

Pondering this:  worshiping with a clean conscience. Praying. Fear of Rejection. Any connection?

If We What?

Day 15 — Soul Detox

Psalms 27:1-14

Devotional

We are often paralyzed with irrational fear that something may happen. Rather than living by faith, we live by fear. These toxic fears can cripple our lives and rob us of our joy. This week you will read what God’s Word says about toxic fears and how we should face them.

How have you seen your toxic fears influence your actions and thoughts?

As you read the Text for today (via the link above or your own copy of Scripture in hand) did you notice NOT to fear is a choice? Did you notice that the Scripture in no way tells us there are not scary things around us?

What about evildoers, adversaries, foes all trying to eat us up? We can be easily paralyzed except for one choice. The choice must be to TRUST.

I mean what does verse 1 say?

Yeshua is our LIGHT – He gets us through any DARKNESS if we TRUST.  And He is our SALVATION – He delivers us from every evildoer, every adversary, every foe that comes against us if we TRUST.

And the Psalmist penned:

Adonai is the stronghold of my life;

of whom should I be afraid?

via Psalms 27:1-14 CJB;NASB – By David: ADONAI is my light and – Bible Gateway.

Of whom indeed should we be afraid?

How’s that for defeating toxic thinking and fear?
