THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH

Topic; The Valley of The shadow of Death EP 1

Psalms 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. The valley of the shadow of death is a symbol of situations in life that seem to be the end of everything!

Facing rough Times, nothing working in your life,you could loose your job or a family member! You may be facing persecutions as a christian, and people are asking where is your God! Job a bible character faced the valley of the shadow of death! He lost literally everything including his health! Friends ridiculed him! His own wife to him to curse God and die! And to him himself he said cursed be the Day he was born!

The valley of the shadow of death is not a pleasant place! God may seem silent at that particular time! Be very careful! This is where people can curse God! The only thing that counts in the valley of the shadow of death is where you are fixing your eyes!!!!!

Where you fix your eyes will determine if you are going to walk through or when you are going to give up, or if you are going to curse Your God!!! Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. At the valley if the shadow of death, who do you face!??..Here is where those who got because of other people, circumstances or presents turn back and they run from the faith! This is where you will hear people blame God!!

Some say now because my dad died/pastor died, no more walking with Christ! Am giving up on God because He did not save my dad from Death!! Who has bewitched us????? But if you know whom you have believed, you can never loose hope in the valley of the shadow of death!! 2 Timothy 1:12
For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

Paul writing this faced the valley of the shadow of death experience!! But he fixed his eyes on Jesus because he knew the one he believed! The psalmist faced the valley of the shadow of death, the enemies were pursuing and almost killed Him but he stood and fixed his eyes on the Lord! He couldn’t fear any evil!

The psalmist knew the rod and the staff of God always gave him comfort!!!

The purpose of the Rod and staff of God is to punish and show the right direction!! Some situations come into our lives to take us to the perfect will of God and purges you to be like Him! When you face the valley of Shadow of Death experience focus on the Lord! Encourage yourself in the Lord just like David did!fix your eyes on Jesus the author and perfector of your faith!

When God purges you just fix your eyes on Him

When you face the Valley of the shadow of death, FIX YOUR EYES ON JESUS!

Be blessed🙏
