This is my command—be strong and courageous!
Do not be afraid or discouraged.
For the LORD your God is with you
wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9 (NLT)
Fear works just like faith...
but in the opposite direction.
In the same way that faith opens the door
for God to work in our lives,
fear opens the door for the enemy
to work in our lives.
Fear brings torment.
Fear has no mercy.
If you act on fear instead of acting on faith,
it will keep you depressed,
miserable and lonely.
Many people are missing out on God's
joy, peace, and victory
because they keep giving in to fear.
They feed their fear by what they
watch on TV or at the movies.
Don't let that be you!
Fear is one of life's realities
as it is our enemy's biggest weapon.
When fear comes knocking on our door,
we can respond in one of two ways:
Forget Everything And Run
OR
Focus Energy & Accept Responsibility
What is our responsibility?
Simply put, it is to choose faith instead of fear.
Romans tells us that faith comes by hearing the Word of God
The more you fill your heart and mind with God's Word,
the stronger you will be to stand against
the powers of darkness.
Choose faith instead of fear by choosing God's Word.
The power that is in you
is greater than the power of fear.
When thoughts come that say,
"You're not able,"
choose faith by saying,
"I can do all things through Christ!"
Choose faith today so you can
overcome fear and live in the freedom
God has in store for you!
Have a blessed & powerful day!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Heavenly Father, I receive Your Word today
which is life, health, and strength to me.
I choose to close the door on fear
by guarding what I say,
what I listen to,
and what I dwell on.
Fill me with Your love and faith
as I meditate on Your Word.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
