24/7 DOXA Content, 31st October-EXERCISE MASTERY OVER FEAR
_____________________________________FOCAL TEXT: 2 Timothy 1 vs 7►►“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”~| KJV |_____________________________________
FRUITFUL greetings, Cherished one. The spirit of fear has killed many people, initiatives, innovation, dreams, visions, talents, gifts and potentials. Almost everyone will be tempted to fear in one way or the other. This is why we have almost 365 times of “Do not be afraid” in the holy scriptures. God wants His children to walk in power and constant sweet victories, not in fear. Don’t entertain anything God hasn’t given you.
Job is one interesting character in the Bible; He was righteous, blameless and wealthy, but fearful. Yes, the spirit of fear got hold on him. Read his fearful confession “For the thing which I greatly feared has come upon me, and that which I was afraid of comes unto me. I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet, yet trouble came” (Job 3:26). Living in fear will change your confessions to negative. Master over your fears by mastering in faith.Job said he was not living in safety but that was not true; because Satan even confessed to God that “Have You not made a hedge ( safety shield) around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? ( Job 1:10).
