Your Supernatural Secret to Stopping the Spirit of Fear in Its Tracks
People fear many things such as death, sickness, disease, germs, darkness, lack of provision, being alone, rejection, bugs, spiders, bats, snakes, and the list goes on and on. Fear is very real, and it is more than a negative emotion; it’s spiritual. Let’s see what the authority of the Scriptures has to say concerning fear and how to overcome its rage against you. Be encouraged with a word from the Lord, pray this prayer and get free from fear this coming year.
Fear Is a Spirit
“For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and love, and self-control” (2 Tim. 1:7).
Against Whom Do We Wrestle?
“For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places” (Eph. 6:12).
You Don’t Have to Fear
:Have not I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” (Josh. 1:9).
“In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you” (Isa. 54:14).
Measures to Take to Overcome Fear
“Set your affection on things above, not on things on earth” (Col. 3:2).
“Cast all your care upon Him, because He cares for you” (1 Pet. 5:7).
“He who speaks in an unknown tongue edifies himself” (1 Cor. 14:4a).
“Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things” (Phil. 4:8).
The Righteous in Christ Are Re-Created to Be Bold:
“The wicked flee when no man pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion” (Prov. 28:1).
Authority Over Fear
“Look, I give you authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. And nothing shall by any means hurt you” (Luke 10:19).
God Is With You
“The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can people do to me?” (Ps. 118:6).
“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Rom. 8:31).
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom will I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom will I be afraid?” (Ps. 27:1).
“Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, yes, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand” (Isa. 41:10).
Seek His Peace
“And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will protect your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Phil. 4:7).
What God Has Given You Instead of Fear
“Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (John 14:27).
Do Not Fear Tomorrow
“Therefore, take no thought about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take thought about the things of itself. Sufficient to the day is the trouble thereof” (Matt. 6:34).
Can Frightful Things Separate You From the Love of God?
“For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities nor powers, neither things present nor things to come, neither height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom. 8:38-39).
“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. Whoever fears is not perfect in love” (1 John 4:18).
Seek the Lord and Be Delivered From Fear
“I sought the Lord, and He answered me, and delivered me from all my fears” (Ps. 34:4).
A Word of the Lord
And the Spirit of the Lord would say to you this day, “Why do you continue to live in fear? Do you not know that I am forever near? I will never leave you, nor forsake you. I have given My angels charge over you to protect you. I have sent My Son, Jesus to break the bondage of fear. So why do you continue to bind yourself to its wickedness? My Holy Spirit is with you to lead you and guide you into all truth. The truth in My Word will set you free. Come under the safety of My wings, do not leave the perimeters of My presence. Carry my presence with you wherever you go. I love you with an everlasting love, and it is My perfect love that casts away all fear.” Thus is My word for you this day.
Let’s Pray
Dear Holy Spirit,
Teach me how to be free from this spirit of fear, how to overcome the attacks of this evilness in my life. I seek You and Your deliverance this day.
In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen. {eoa}
