Strength to Face Fear

With Faith, We Can Overcome All Fear

Scripture

The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? - Psalm 27:1 (NKJV)

We live in times when the earth is filled with great fear, but God’s children need not be afraid. He is the strength we need to confront fear, move past it, and do all that God wants us to do.

If anything in your life is causing you to fear right now, remember that God loves you very much and that His perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4:18).

God doesn’t simply give us strength; He is our strength! We don’t need to fear other people or what they might say about us or do to us. Since God is on our side, we can confidently trust that He will always deal with our enemies as we put our trust in Him.

Refuse to live your life in fear. Fear is from Satan, and it is intended to prevent you from making progress of any kind. However, the gift of God is faith, and with it, we can overcome all fear.

Prayer

Father, thank You for loving me and for being my strength. I pray that You would give me a revelation of Your love right now so that I can go about my day in perfect peace without any fear. Because You are with me, I don’t ever have to worry—and I want to know that in my innermost being. I pray that I will always choose faith over fear because I really do trust You! In Jesus’ name. Amen.

I Will Not Fear

God’s love for you is unconditional. That means you don’t have to try to be “good enough” to enjoy a great relationship with Him. Be emboldened to believe it - watch this video teaching from Joyce.
