HOW TO KILL FEAR

...He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?" (Matthew 8:26)

 

 

Faith Fear is one of Satan's strategies to disarm the saint and make him a cheap prey. He flashes all kinds of dangerous images into your mind and when you become afraid, he afflicts you. No matter how righteous you are, if you fear you will fall. A recurring message throughout the entire Bible is that God's people do not need to be afraid of anything, because He is ultimately in control of all things. Whether it's a minor life setback or a seriously frightening situation, we are to face it without undue fear, trusting in God.

 

The truth is, fear comes to all; there is no man who does not fear. David, a great warrior who never lost a single battle in his life said in one of his prayers to God, "When I am afraid, I will trust in you" (Psalm 56:3). So, fear comes to all, but your reaction determines your outcome. You don't overcome fear with prayer; rather you kill it by talking faith. When Satan threatens you, don't keep quiet! Speak out in faith! It may be insignificant to you, but the sound of your voice as you declare the word of God, has great impact in the spirit realm. When you make declarations of faith, Satan and his demons flee from your presence.

 

So, anytime he brings the fear of death to your heart, declare boldly, "I shall not die but live to declare the works of the Lord" (Psalms 118:17). He tells you, "You will have an accident today." Declare with all your might, "God has given His angels charge over me, they bear me up on their wings lest I dash my foot against a stone. I cannot have an accident!" Whatever you talk against, can't have power over you. When you speak out in faith, you are destroying your fears and at the same time disarming your enemy. The more you speak the more courageous you become. So talk courageously against every threat of evil that Satan brings into your heart.

 

That is why when soldiers go to war they sing all manner of songs, to kill fear from their hearts. If you want to kill fear I your heart, you must start speaking the word of God into your situation! double.

 

Stay above...always. 


Yours & His,
Angela
