Freedom From Fear

What a freedom we have in Christ knowing we are loved and God only wants the best for us as His children. Today I was sitting in a class with three ladies and a teacher and one of the ladies had come to a place where she was afraid to take the next steps forward into a career that could be so good for her. Then the teacher and the others started into a discussion about fear and how it is something that will always be there and just has to be ignored, however as I was sitting there I was thinking... I don’t have any fear in moving up in the world and making things better for myself. How can I be afraid of that when it is what God wants for me? Then I started to think these ladies don’t know what it is like to live fear free and I felt compassion for them. To live day in and day out worrying and fearing about all sorts of things that, me, as a Child of God, does not have to worry about... I just sit back and thank God that He takes care of all my needs no matter how big or small, yes even the smallist details.

FEAR=

False

Evidence

Appearing

Real

This is one of the tricks satan uses the most to keep Christian under his bondage. The bondage of FEAR of not knowing.

1 John 4:18

18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

The scriptures say God is Love. So if we have been saved by Jesus than only love can dwell in us. So...Fear has no hold in our lives it is our CHOICE if we allow ourselves to be fearful.
