PUT YOUR FOCUS ON THE SOLUTION

Deu 31:8 Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.”

God have promised you that he never ever will abandon you. He will always be with you. If you are follow Jesus he is a head of you, isn't he?

On and on again God is request us that we do not need to be afraid. Some one said one time that the words; “Do not be afraid” is written 365 times in the bible. What does this mean? It mean that God like to accentuate fore us that we do not need to be afraid. *****
What does God tell us on and on again that we do not need to be afraid? Because he know what fear do to us. When you and I are afraid we are focus on the problem and not on the solution. Jesus and the promise of God is our solution. And it is the will of God that we shall focus on Jesus and the promise.

I know that is is not always easy to focus on right things. When you come from the hospital and you doctor just told you that you soon will die. But I like to help you to focus on the right thing. When the fear is pressing on to you you can start to praise and worship Jesus. Because when you start to pray, praise and worship Jesus, you will lift your eye from the problem to the solution.


When Israel was in the desert they become bite of snakes, and many of the people of Israel died because of the snakes. But God told Moses to create a snake, and Moses made a snake of copper. And when the people who have been bitten of the snakes was looked at this snake, God heald them and let them live.

This snake is a prototype of Jesus on the cross. Have you ever been thinking about how long time Israel was looking at the snake. They did not only glance a bit. They looked at this snake. Fore how long time we do not know. And maybe they had to help their relatives to look at the snake. I believe it is the same with Jesus to day. Sometimes we have to look at Jesus year in and year out before we become heald, and maybe we have to help our friend and relatives to look at Jesus sometimes.

The people of Israel had to put their focus from the dead to the snakes who bring them life. It is the same fore us to day. If you like to live, you have to put your focus on Jesus and his promise and not the problem.
