Destroying Fear: A Five-Day Devotional Sample

Destroying Fear: A Five-Day Devotional

DAY 3 OF 5

  Set Free from Bondage

I had the opportunity to minister in a spiritual warfare conference where I was one of the main speakers. I always believe that when you attend these conferences, you have to be prepared to face the devil head on. That is exactly what happened.

Attending the conference was a teenage girl who had just come from a mental institution on suicide watch because she was cutting herself. This was all because her boyfriend bullied her and beat her physically. Her mother knew that I was in town ministering and brought her daughter to the service.

My heart cried out for her because she could have been anyone’s daughter. I wanted to weep as I prayed for her, believing that somehow the Lord Jesus Christ was going to set her free.

As I laid hands on her, I felt the Holy Spirit ministering to all her spiritual scars of fear, trauma, verbal abuse, and rejection. All these devils started to fall to the ground, and the chains were broken. She was completely set free.

What a miracle! I even took pictures of her arms, which were shocking, but I thank God for His incredible mercy that when people give up on us, He does not. The laugh we shared at the end of the night was precious. This young lady and I were asking if anyone had a pair of scissors to cut off the hospital bracelet, a symbol from a place to which she was never going to return. Thank You, Holy Spirit.

Declare This throughout Your Day: I profess that I have the mind of Christ. I declare peace and joy over my life, in Jesus’ name.

Reflection Questions: What spiritual roadblocks do you think the enemy has set against you? What does it mean for you personally that “He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4 NKJV)?

About this Plan

Destroying Fear: A Five-Day Devotional

There is a reason why Jesus commands His children throughout Scripture not to worry. Fear is crippling, and it crowds out the voice of our Savior. The devil knows this and uses fear to keep us from walking in freedom. It is time to give the demon of fear an eviction notice. Shake off the paralyzing voice of fear and build your faith with new conviction.
