FEAR

ZIP YOURSELF INTO THE WORD

FEAR NOT

His Promise

Jeremiah 1:19 (New International Version)

They will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the LORD.

Fear is our ultimate enemy. A very patronising, largely unfunny, basically unwelcomed guest with an enormous

capacity to cripple who we are emotionally, financially, physically and reveal how shallow we are spiritually

by freezing our faith.

A quick look at an array of definitions of fear on the web will be absolutely

rewarding as you coast along progressing your spiritual reflexes and widening your spectrum of knowledge, that way you have a good foundation

and something to work with.

What is FEAR?What and who we should

fear?

To be afraid or feel anxious or apprehensive about a possible or

probable situation or event.

Fear could also be defined as an emotion experienced in

anticipation of some specific pain or danger (usually accompanied by

a desire to flee or fight)

The next definition is a departure from the last two

definitions.

HOLY FEAR

You can overcome fear by zipping yourself into the word in the scriptures

a fabulous array of spiritual guides nicely packaged to help you face

contemporary challenges.

JOSHUA’S RECIPEIt’s the realistic wish of God for

Dealing With Fear

God’s CommandJoshua 1:8 (New International Version)

Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

How to Overcome fear

2. Then observe all that is written therein.3. Be strong and of good courage; be not afraid

neither be thou dismayed (Application of faith)4. The LORD thy God is with thee witheresoever

thou goest

Joshua 1:7-8 Portrayed very convincingly a promise and strict

recipe coupled with the expectation when we observe to

do what is in the word. It is impossible to observe and

meditate on the word without first studying the word

Study the wordAnd meditate

on it

Observe what you have studied

neither be thou dismayed

Overcoming fear

We need to be spiritually updated and much more coordinated in our responses to upset fear. A good understanding of the flavour of God’s language and the intimacy with the word is the reason why some Christians live as more than conquerors.

“If you fail to upset the fear that has imprisoned you, by using the word God has given you, that fear will be quick to highlight how hollow you

have become as a Christian..........”

- Ivan Ukiwah


All through the pages of the Bible He continually told us

“Fear Not….. I am with thee”“Fear not….I am God”

When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him and put him to flight [for He will come like a rushing stream which the breath of the Lord drives].
