Living a Life Void of Fear

Matthew 16:8
But Jesus, aware of this, said, “O you of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves the fact that you have no bread? 

The bread of life, which is Jesus Christ, is within us when we receive Our Lord as Our Savior.  The living bread is ever present.  It is never removed.  It is always available to us and to those around us.  The only restrictor of the living bread is our own faith.

When we have no faith in the indwelling power of Our Lord, we build a hardened silo from which no provision can flow.  With little faith, we restrict what can be released from our lives.  With great faith, we can release an unlimited distribution of power, protection and provision into our lives and into the lives of those who surround us.

Doubt should never be an option for a believer under any circumstances.  Jesus loved us so much that He was willing to die for us.  How could we ever doubt His presence and His power in our lives?  How could we ever fear with the King of Kings as our protector?  We should live in the triumphant belief of who He is.  Our faith must be, not in ourselves nor in the world, but in the One from Whom our salvation springs.  His countenance shines upon us and His grace is always with us.

Prayer
Heavenly Father, we thank You for giving us the Cornerstone of our faith, Your Son, Jesus Christ.  With His death on the Cross, we received victory over all evil.  We bless the name of Our Savior who made it possible for us to live our lives without fear.  May we live by the faith that we have been given.  We pray, Lord, that You will give us the wisdom and the strength to yoke ourselves to Jesus Himself.  May we learn to live in the fullness of the One who dwells within us.  We ask all these things in the name of the strength of our lives, the Bread of Life, Jesus Christ.
