Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year One

DAY 72 OF 365

The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe (Proverbs 29:25).

Do you fear man or the Lord?

Moses writes the principles of warfare for Israel. His officers are to inquire, “What man is there who is fearful and fainthearted? Let him go and return to his house, lest the heart of the brethren faint like his heart” (Deuteronomy 20:8). Jesus chooses twelve apostles, and one betrays Him and the others run away at His arrest. The Lord predicts this. He says, “All of you will be made to stumble because of me this night” (Mark 14:27). The apostles deny it. Yet Mark records, “Then they all forsook Him and fled” (Mark 14:50). Their plight is caused because they ignored Jesus’ message that a man must “deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me” (Mark 8:34).

Employment Point: Fear God and not man through heeding the message of the cross.
