Is Your Faith Rooted In Fear or Your Love and Trust in God? Has Fear Become Your Constant Companion?

Are you running? Are you hiding? Are you trying to handle things on your own? If you are doing all of these things, then your faith is not in God. Your faith is in what you think you can do or what you think you need to do.

Understand, you can have faith in fear. When you have faith in fear, fear becomes your friend. It becomes your constant companion. It's with you wherever you go. It's recognizable as relatable to you.

Just as God's Word prophesies to your life, so can fear. Fear will speak to you. It will tell you what you can and cannot have in life. It will give you negative words that predict failure, loneliness, and lack. Fear will bring with it the "what if" questions that come up in life. It will tell you stories about what you can't do and it will always give you worse case scenarios about what you are going through.

You will see throughout life people change companions constantly but make it a point not to become a companion of fear. Amen

2 Timothy 1:7

King James Version

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Are You At The Place Where Your Trust In God Is Overriding Your Fear?

 What is it that God is telling you to do?   Are you doing it?   Are you stepping out on faith and leaving behind all the fear?    Are you trusting God to help you through the process so that you can live in His promise?   

God is faithful.   He is not a man and He does not lie.   What He has promised, He will do.   What He has done, He will do again if necessary.     Make no mistake.  Again, He is not a man and He does not lie.    We have to get to the point where we let our obedience override our desires.  A place where we let our trust override our fears.    We have to put God in first place and leave Him there and truly believe that He has the final say.    

Life can be challenging but understand, it's overcoming life's challenges that make you victorious.    God has called you to be victorious in Him.   One of attributes that you see in champions is they have an overcomer's mindset.   They believe that they can and will win and that is what you have to have also.   You have to settle it in your mind that you believe that you can and will win through Christ.   

You have to believe and understand that when you are weak, you are still strong in God.   You have to believe and understand that the roadblocks that you cannot see ahead of you, God sees.   You have to trust and believe that God not only can do what you need, you have to believe that He will do it.   You have to trust in His faithfulness.
