Previous Daily Devotional

When you fear that a criminal will inflict pain upon you, then you instinctively know you must respect that person’s power. In the Old Testament, it was the fear of God that kept the children of God "in line," but even with dramatic demonstrations of power, the Israelites kept falling away. God wants you to regard Him as your Father in heaven upon whom you can depend and trust. He wants you to lean upon Him and trust Him when you are afraid of darkness and evil. It was this desire to have you trust Him that inspired the words of Jesus cited above.
