Ice breaker: Do not tremble, do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago? You are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me? No, there is no other Rock; I know not one." Isaiah 44:8

Scriptures: Isaiah 44:6-8, James 1:15, Psalms 81:1, 8, 11
Main Reflection: Do not be afraid
Purpose: Turn to God

1. The CEO of Eastman Kodak company took a gun to his head and committed suicide after possessing all. Because the desires filled his heart and he thus became empty. Desire gives birth to sin and sin, when it is full-grown gives birth to death. 
2. Do not worry about your children. Because of his love for China influenced his children, Davidson’s fourth generation is still spreading the gospel in China. 
3. God is true and is the first and the last. Our God is everlasting and also speaks. 
4. Foretell what is yet to come and what will come
   1. Book of Revelation mentioned the alliance of kings of the south and the north, which is manifested in the space planning (Russia and the European union to jointly send men to Mars)
   2. God reveals Himself; God already put His will and plan in the Scriptures. Nevertheless, man focuses only on “whether my investment will profit tomorrow” or “is the problem solved yet.” 
   3. We need to adjust our attitude and change the focus from on ourselves to the kingdom of God. 
5. Do not be afraid, you are my witnesses a. Witnessing has three orderly steps i. Jesus enables us to be reborn (change of status) ii. Holy and righteous life (nature of God) iii. Renewal of life (God through many problems corrects and changes us) 
6. God’s will is to turn our hearts to Him and praise Him. For this is our reciprocity to God.
