Fear is the mother of all invisible fences! It keeps us confined, robs us of opportunities and makes sure our talents and gifts stay tucked away. In this last of the 4 part series on breaking down the invisible fences holding you back, I tackle fear from a spiritual and practical perspective, giving you tips on how to topple this fence and live a life that is authentic and on purpose!
In this episode I dive into my own personal experience with fear, what scripture says about fear and how to handle it along with practical tips such as:
-Examining and reflecting on the core question...why are you afraid?
-Evaluate the cost/benefit of fear
-How to choose freedom over fear
-Taking inventory of your fear by looking at triggers, and how they manifest (for ex. Does fear manifest through one of the other invisible fences such as limiting beliefs, holding onto the past or being complacent in a narrative that doesn’t reflect the story you want to live)
You are more than a conqueror! Don’t allow fear to overcome your faith! Faith is believing what you can’t see and having trust in the Lord’s perfect plan and fear is the exact opposite! Fear is being afraid of what you can’t see, and not trusting in the sovereignty of God to pursue His plan.
When fear is put in its proper context it protects us from danger and keeps us safe when it dominates us it stops protecting and instead prevents us from living authentically.
