Overcoming Fear

OVERCOMING FEAR
______________________

It is so ironic that this scripture is a popular quote we often use from the Bible. God did not give us the spirit of fear, However, we tend to have a continually battle with fear. Whether we fear of failure or we fear we just might get what we want, it’s holding the key to your purpose. Sometimes we think that we are not worthy of good success and accomplishment. Too often we neglect to realize that our God is the one who create success. Have no fear, if God is for you, who can be against you.

So what is fear, fear is simply a feeling with the intention of rowing your purpose. What fear does is give you a sense of worry or afraid. However, it’s only a sense. Now, there is another type of fear, the other is reverence as to having the fear of God, However, the fear that makes you frighten of the unknown will certainly put a hamper into you pursuance. Yes, this fear will restrict the free movement or progress of what you seeking to accomplish. Fear will make you not attempt rather than try.

Fear is encountering the unknown, when you don’t know what the next step is, or what it will bring. You tend to neglect and draw back instead of pushing forward. Fear will make you act this way. Fear has to be cut off from you thoughts and imagination. The more you let it stay in your life, the more it will influence you to worry about what to do.

Fear comes from your thoughts, imagination and your words. What you do and say could make a big difference in forward and backwards. We have so many fears in our life, like fear of what tomorrow brings, fear of the new job, fear of what the medical doctor will say to you when you get to the appointment, etc. Then there are fears that will make you do things that you are not accustom to doing, or out of your norm, just to fit into the group. However, read this scripture:

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest”. (Joshua 1:8-9 KJV)

We must learn to accept that “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” (Proverbs 10:22 KJV)

You have to recognize the fear that is affecting your forward movement. Sometimes it camouflage its self with anger and frustration just to make you feel like it’s all about you, and makes you turn away from the one who is greater that self and is on your side. The greatest fears are the one you cannot see, it’s internal. Let go and let God have its way. Fear is just another word with four letters created by our enemy

Fear is a fallen angel from faith. This is one of the tactics that our enemy produce to prevent you from success. The Bible tells us that God is faith, and to please Him you must produce such. Fear is from our enemy, the devil. The scripture said he is a liar and an accuser of the bragging. One of his lies is to put fear in you heart when you were never given fear in the first place. So why does the devil insist in persuade you so much, because he were stopped in his pursuant for purpose, so he wants to stop your pursuant. His purpose was not with good intention, so God had to put a permanent halt to his movement.

“You were in Eden, the garden of God; your clothing was bejeweled with every precious stone--ruby, topaz, diamond, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, carbuncle, and emerald--all in beautiful settings of finest gold. They were given to you on the day you were created. I appointed you to be the anointed Guardian Angel. You had access to the holy mountain of God. You walked among the stones of fire. You were perfect in all you did from the day you were created until that time when wrong was found in you. Your great wealth filled you with internal turmoil and you sinned. Therefore, I cast you out of the mountain of God like a common sinner. I destroyed you, O Guardian Angel, from the midst of the stones of fire. Your heart was filled with pride because of all your beauty; you corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor. Therefore I have cast you down to the ground and exposed you helpless before the curious gaze of kings. You defiled your holiness with lust for gain; therefore I brought forth fire from your own actions and let it burn you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all those watching you. All who know you are appalled at your fate; you are an example of horror; you are destroyed forever.”(Ezekiel 28:13-19 KJV) In other words, to clarify, fear is destroy for ever, you don’t posses it, so leave it alone and move forward.
