Fear is an act of admitting that your enemy is stronger than you. Any time you are afraid of your situation, you simply make God a liar, and His word of no effect. God’s word says, greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4). But fear makes you accept that he that is in the world is greater than He that is in you.
The word of God warns us never to be afraid because God is involved in our battle (Deut. 20:3-4). But fear will make a man accept defeat before the battle begins. Fear will easily disarm a man of his strength.
The children of Israel finished themselves by being afraid to confront their enemy, and God gave them over to defeat.
Friend, don’t be afraid, for the Lord your God is with you. He is the one fighting your battle. So you cannot lose. If the enemy looks as if they are winning, it is for their defeat and your victory to be established. Always take courage by faith in the word of God. Refuse to be afraid. The great I am is on your side. You are the one who will overcome.
Prayer: Lord, be my strength from the inside out.
“YOUR FEAR ONLY EMPOWERS YOUR ENEMY. DROP IT!”
