Fear of Man Is a Leash #028

If you’re trying to win approval from everyone, you’ve already forfeited your assignment from God.

The fear of man is a leash — and many strong men live chained to it, afraid to offend, afraid to stand alone, afraid to follow the narrow path.

Years ago, I faced public criticism after a rescue mission. Instead of shrinking back, I pressed forward. Why? Because God didn’t call me to people-please. He called me to obey.

You can’t live free and still be a slave to human opinions.

“The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.”
Proverbs 29:25

Today’s Move:

Identify one way you’ve let fear of man slow your obedience. Name it. Then cut the leash. Serve the mission, not the mob.

Scripture Focus:

“For they loved human praise more than praise from God.”
John 12:43
