Fear is fixing our imagination on evil, pain or worst case scenarios. Faith is fixing our imagination on what God has already said about the matter. 

Absence of fear is not the goal. Being fully convinced of God’s goodness and won over by His love in the midst of fear is the aim. Fear and faith cannot mix. We can either choose fear or faith. How has fear showed up in your life? Fear amidst an event? Fear of the future? Fear of a virus? Fear of the unknown, success, failure, losing someone you love? Fear of what others might think of you? Fear of losing a reputation? 

God wants to overshadow you with His love in such a profound way that fear is totally driven out from your life and loses its influence over you as a result.

Listen in for 10 Ways to know for certain fear has lost its influence in your life and three practical steps to become free from fear.
