Fear

 

I think one of the most devastating strongholds in my opinion is being gripped with fear. It was the first trick of the enemy. He placed fear into Adam and Eve by his deception of lies that God was withholding something good from them. The result of that fear causing them to disobey God came with a terrible price displayed in a sin-filled world. The enemy uses the same tactics today, he tries to grip our hearts with fear foremost to make us think God does not love us because of our sin. The word of God says, “For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but power, love, and self-discipline (2 Tim 1:7 NLT). Fear is not from God, for He is Love. “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love (I John 4:18 NKJV). How do we become made perfect in love? By accepting it as a free gift, given to us through Christ Jesus. No works are needed there is nothing we can do to ever earn it. God is asking us to accept his love believing that it will cast out all fear, sickness, and torment. Believe in the Father’s love for you today, displayed perfectly in Him sacrificing his Son for YOU. He will take it from there. 

 

The light of God’s love shined within us when he sent his matchless Son into the world so that we might live through him. This is love:  He loved us long before we loved him. It was his love, not ours. He proved it by sending his Son to be the pleasing sacrificial offering to take away our sins. 1 John 4:9-10 TPT
