Fearless:  Five Ways To Overcome Fear

DAY 5 OF 5

Choose surrender over striving

There is a certain beauty that comes when we surrender our lives to the Lord. In that place of surrender, we receive the power from God to be more than a conqueror. We are no longer a slave to fear because of our position in Christ. The final choice this week is to surrender your very life instead of striving to defeat your fear(s) in your own strength.

We follow Jesus' example. In learning to overcome, we must first lay our lives down. We yield our will to the Lord. We surrender our feelings to Him. We abandon our very lives. When we learn to surrender to the One who created us, we become free.  

I discovered that when I gave up my fears to the Father and I received His love, I was able to start healing. Fear no longer had a hold over me.  I was ready to embrace living a fearless life because as a child of God, I could overcome. It was by His power and strength that I could let truth lead—that I could apply wisdom to my lifestyle—to make right decisions and changes that lead to the wellbeing of my life and my family. It's not by my own strength. I could not conquer fear without the power of the Holy Spirit leading and guiding me.

God wants to heal you from any form of fear. Follow the leading of the Holy Spirit as you surrender your fears to Him. Listen to His voice. Learn to think full, clear thoughts and walk free. You can live free because Christ has set you free from fear in all its forms. 

Live a surrendered life because that's the key to living a fearless life.
