As you read the pages of My Word, you will see many times how people tried to please others. Pilate feared the crowds and gave Me to them to be crucified. Abraham feared that he would be killed because of the beauty of his wife. He told his wife to say that she was his sister. Throughout history, people have lied, stolen, and even killed because they feared man.
I came to set you free from the fear of man. You do not have to be a "man pleaser" any longer. I want you only to fear Me which means that you will have an awsome respect for Me, and you will honor Me with a willing, obedient heart. Fear of man paralyzes you and it is of the devil. The fear of man brings a snare. When you fear Me, you are liberated from condemnation, and you are secure in Me. You know that I am pleased with you, so what others think of you really matters no more.
Whenever you do things out of the fear of man, you have opened the door of your heart to the enemy.
Close that door by recognizing that I love you and that I am very pleased with you. My love is pouring out upon you today. Receive My love and rejoice in the fact that you are My beloved and the banner over you is My love.
