Fear is something that a lot of people battle with. They can be afraid of losing their home, afraid of failing, afraid of being loved, and lots of other things. However, praise be to God, through Jesus we can overcome all fears if we are willing to let go of them.
According to Galatians 3:13 Jesus has given us many weapons that are mighty and divine to use. These weapons are prayer, faith, the name of Jesus, and God’s word. Remember that when you let fear become a problem that you are sinning and going against what the bible says in Philippians 4:6-7. “Be careful for nothing; but with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God And the peace of God which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus”. When you give your requests over to God have faith that he is working on them and have peace knowing that Christ is there guiding you and protecting you through everything.
When fear starts to attack instead of backing down like a coward and without faith, start using words of praise and thanksgiving. Satan trembles at the word of God so use the scriptures and say them out loud whenever you are afraid. If you are uncomfortable with saying the verses out loud start with reading them out loud to yourself whenever you are reading the Bible and after that you will start feeling confident with reading them out loud.
If you feel fear instead of letting it rule you what you must do is learn how to tell fear to go away through the name of Jesus. In the book of Mark chapter 16 and verses 17,18 it talks about the authority that we have when we say in the name of Jesus. In his name miracles can be done and demons will flee but it is only through the name of Jesus. Whenever you are feeling afraid next time just simply say out loud and with authority, “Fear, in the name of Jesus, Be Gone!!”.
