Lose Fear - You Are Mightier Than What You Thought Of

Fear is your foe – no other way to describe it.  I’m not discussing that natural life maintaining action along with a major boost of adrenaline that occurs if a wild animal is coming at you.  I’m discussing the fears individuals live with day in and day out.

Somebody once described fear as, “Sand in the machinery of life.”  Fear doesn’t assist you, it hampers you.  Fear doesn’t get you through an open doorway; it keeps you in the hall.  Fear never helps you put your better foot forward; it simply keeps both of your feet in concrete.

The psychology of now is, “Learn to live with your fears”, “adopt your fears”, “It’s normal to accept fears – everyone does.” 

It’s true; lots of individuals do bear fears. And there are individuals who are attempting to learn how to live with their fears, and adopt them.

However if it’s “normal” to have fears, then why would the Scripture discuss being delivered from all your fears?

There are a lot of facets and faces of fear.  One of the huge ones is having fear of what other people think of you.  Individuals do things, say things, and even purchase things because of the fear that they have of what other people think. 

A lot of times individuals join clubs or organizations because they're afraid that if they don’t, other people may think badly of them. 

Individuals say things and talk a particular way because they're frightened that they may not say the right thing in front of the right individuals. 

Individuals buy items because of fear not measuring up to those around them.  And on and on it endures. 

You don’t have to live with fear.  Here are three easy keys to doing away with fear.

1st, begin by realizing that The Higher Power truly loves you and that His love for you is unconditional.

2nd, ask The Higher Power to help you to get rid of all your fears.  He's promised to deliver you from all your fears. 

3rd, arrive at decisions based on what is best for you, not how it might or might not appear to other people.  You’ll never, ever be able to please everybody, so quit trying to.  You’ll never, ever be right in everybody’s eyes, so quit trying to. 

When you arrive at a decision, ask yourself, “Why am I establishing this decision?  Is it based on fear?”  Arrive at decisions based on what is correct and best for your life, irrespective of what other people think. 


You may live without fear.
