FEAR NOT!!!
MATTHEW 1:18-24;
LUKE 1:26-38
Fear is a mental, emotional reaction to a stimulus (word, thought, event, person, message, feeling) which suggests, even visualizes an unwanted result. Where does fear come from? Internal sources .... Adam (we are born separated from God).... The flesh .... My own tendencies, wiring, apart from the Holy Spirit’s control External sources .... The world system, its report and forecast .... Others .... The enemy Who/what energizes fear?(2 Timothy 1:7) How do I break the chains? Arm myself with God’s Resources .... Receive by faith, take an Aggressive Stand (see 1 Peter 5:7,8; Ephesians 6:10-18) Power .... Explosive, every enemy defeating power .... Vested in His authority!(Matthew 28:18)Jesus released His God-given authority through His words. We are to do so in His Name! (Mark 16:17) Love – God’s Love .... See 1 John 4:18; Romans 8:37
A Sound Mind .... See 1 Corinthians 2:16 .... His mind is stable, balanced, ordered, at peace .... Receive, and continue to invest, taking every thought captive .... 2 Corinthians 10:4, 5
