In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.  Isaiah 54:14 (KJV)

Be not troubled! God commands us not to be troubled. In response to His command there must be a point in time that we decide to obey the word of God. It is only then that we can be a lighthouse to those who don't know that Jesus is the Lord Advocate General of the church, and when we ask Him, He is both able and willing to deliver us.
 

There is a ton of recession talk going on right now. Listening to all that negativity can cause fear to grab your heart. But you can put a stop to it right now, because when terror comes, it isn't coming near you, if you put your trust in God.

The world is looking for somebody who has security in God. The world is looking for somebody who knows what the outcome is going to be. And I'll tell you who they are looking for. They're looking for you. They're not just looking for the pastor. They're looking for the Christian. They're looking for somebody who knows God.

You are supposed to have hope on the inside of you. Being ready and quick to answer when they start talking that recession talk, tell them, "I'm going to keep on living my life for God as I always had." Don't allow fear of the end to cause you to hold back your confession of faith. Instead, speak the word and know it is true. Your faith will open the door for you to offer your Savior to them.

Right now their hearts are open and they are looking for somebody who can tell them the truth, that Jesus saves, and Jesus heals, and Jesus delivers. It is time to tell them that we are going to have victory in this earth, the enemy will not be able to win, because hell trembles at the name of Jesus.

It is time to make a decision to believe the word of God. Because you believe then say it, "Bless God, God supplies for me." When you make your confession of faith, your light will shine and draw the world to Jesus. Be bold to say, "I'm not worried about recession, I will be provided for, I will be safe, and my nation will overcome."
