Nothing to Be Afraid Of Gloria Copeland He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. Self-consciousness is a major problem in the Body of Christ today. It keeps us from doing the things God tells us to do. Instead of simply obeying Him, it makes us start to wonder, Now what will people think of me if I do that? What if I command that person to get out of the wheelchair and he doesnt get up? What if I start believing for prosperity and go broke? What about that, God? I wont look too good, will I? If youve ever been through that, let me tell you something: It doesnt matter how you look! Its obeying God that counts. When it comes to obeying God, your own reputation doesnt count; and the sooner you forget it, the better off youll be. But you know whats ironic? Once you do that, your reputation gets better. Its a funny thing. When you lose that desire to protect your image, your image will improve. Why? Because then when people look at you, instead of seeing that puny little image you have of yourself, theyll see the image of the Lord Jesus coming through. So put aside that old self-consciousness and develop God- consciousness instead. Stop being dominated by the fear of man and start being motivated by faith in what Jesus can do. After all, He has promised He will never leave you or forsake you. Grab hold of that. Believe it. Act on it. Once you do, youll realize theres really nothing to be afraid of anymore!
