A Way Out
Fear runs wild when we have a distorted view of God’s truth. It leads us to live a life based on half-truths, where fear penetrates our minds and hearts. For so long, this described me. I expected God to meet my needs only if I obeyed the rules, and that He would never give me more than I could handle. But, as I got to know God and His truth, I discovered how wrong I was. He’s not about rules, and ALL things are possible in Him. If we want to win the battle against fear, we must align ourselves with the whole truth of who God is and who He says we are.
To grasp the truth that God offers, we have to learn who He is. His character. His attributes. What makes Him angry? What makes Him sad? The more we know, the more we understand how He protects our hearts, guards our minds, and equips us to fight. God is who we need. But, we can’t know this unless we dig in and do the hard work. This means reading the Bible, applying it, sharing our thoughts with God, and letting Him share His with us. God is the only One that will quiet the fear that holds us captive. We must get to know Him.
The more we know God, the more we learn about who He says we are. We discover we are loved and important. We realize we are disciplined overcomers with talents and gifts. The more our truth increases, the more our fear decreases. We unleash God’s power within us to overcome doubts, stop fear, and live with confidence. The confusion fades, and the truth stands tall. We use fear instead of letting fear use us. Fear becomes a feeling that points out the areas of our minds and hearts not aligned with God’s truth. We stand victorious when we know God and our identity in Him.
Fear doesn’t have to make us run and hide. We can take every fear-filled thought captive and experience freedom through a personal relationship with Jesus. It’s time to let Him become the center of our life. Today, as you read Scripture and engage in conversation, evaluate where you are by asking these two questions. Do I know about God or know Him personally? Do I believe who God says I am?
