When we walk in fear, we are walking in the cares and anxieties of the world. It is the enemy's attack against our lives. It is where the enemy is trying to pull the plug on our faith. He wants to keep our hearts and minds off of what God is doing and we instead begin to focus on what he is doing. To keep our eyes stayed on God means we are walking in faith but when we are distracted and become more concerned about what the devil is trying to do, we leave the realm of faith and get into the realm of fear.
Understand what the "cares of life" are. They are distractions that are a result of anxiety. When we become anxious about situations in our lives, it results in "cares" and we can either cast our cares on God or carry them around ourselves. Remember, anxiety is a result of fearful concern or should I say fear.
When you tolerate fear, you contaminate your faith and faith contaminated by fear cannot produce God results.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Isaiah 41:10
King James Version
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
