Fear Not
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
As
soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of
the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe. (Mark 5:36)
In Matthew chapter
5, when Jesus crossed over the Sea of Galilee, He met Jairus, a ruler of
the synagogue. Jairus said, "My little daughter lies at home sick; she's
at the point of death. Come and lay Thy hand on her that she may be
healed" (Mark 5:23).
Jairus believed that when Jesus laid His hands on the girl, she would be
healed. So Jesus went with him to his house.
While they were on their way, someone from Jairus' house came to him and
said, "Trouble the Master no longer. Your little daughter is already
dead" (Mark 5:35).
In the face of such a tragedy, Jesus spoke the simplest, yet most
profound statement to Jairus. Jesus said, "Fear not. Only believe" (v.
36). Jesus was a faith preacher! He was encouraging Jairus to believe,
even under adverse circumstances. He was encouraging Jairus to have
faith, to believe.
God never comes with a message of fear. You can read all through the Old
Testament and the New Testament, and every time God sent an angel or a
messenger from Heaven for anyone, the first thing the angel said was,
"Don't be afraid." Well, what are you going to do if you're not going to
fear? Only believe!
Confession
I will not fear. I will only
believe.
