Fear is covert sin that is a result of misplaced faith. Mark 11:22 says, ‘…Have faith in God.” When our focus is on the Lord alone, our faith is grounded and unshakable.
As we read Lamentations 3:23 we hear Jeremiah’s declaration, “…Great is Your faithfulness.” Titus 1:2 says, “In hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began.”
2 Timothy 2:13 is another declaration. It says, “If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.” Isaiah 41:10 is one of my anchor verses. It says, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”
Job’s declaration at the end of his trial is another one that grounds me. Job 42:2 says, “I know that You can do everything, and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You.” Fear is a spirit according to 2 Timothy 1:7. Don’t dialogue with it.
