Proverbs 29:25
The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth
his trust in the Lord shall be safe.
A snare is a trap set to catch prey. It is intended to trap the prey for the kill
or abduction. When we have the fear of
man we can get entangled and trapped. When
we are concerned about pleasing people we will not be able to walk freely in
what God wants us to do. The opposite of
the fear of man is putting our trust in the Lord. We need to trust the Lord and
not worry about what other people think so that we can be free to make the
progress God has for us. Oh Lord, take
away the fear of man from us that we might not be snared but be free to follow
you.
