ÒFear Not, Neither Be DiscouragedÓ Deuteronomy 1:21
If he who is our God is the eternal ÒI AM,Ó if we trust him who is ÒI AM THAT I AM,Ó we have nothing to fear in this world, or in the world to come. No wonder our Savior says so often to his people, ÒFear not!Ó Read again what God said to the children of Israel, when he sent them forth to conquer Canaan and possess it forever (Deuteronomy 1:21; 20:1-3; 31:6-8). Shall we fret and fear, shall we murmur and complain before our God? — Fret because our God is so great? — Fear because our Savior is so immense? — Murmur because our Redeemer is so strong? — Complain because his riches are unsearchable? What folly! What unbelief! His treasures are such that gold is but dust in his deep mines! The riches of his grace fall like manna before our tent doors every day. May God the Holy Ghost allow us to drink the refreshing waters of this bottomless, ever-springing artesian well. — ÒI AM THAT I AM.Ó O Spirit of God, show us the things of Christ.
