No More Fear 

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV)

Years ago, I was daily tormented by fear. I can remember being afraid to go to sleep at night because of the nightmares and horrifying spiritual attacks I would experience. It was then that I realized that the kingdom of darkness was very real. I discovered that one of Satan’s greatest weapons is fear. Why? Because he knows that you and I will not take authority over something we fear. What is fear? Simply put, fear is timidity or cowardice resulting from a wrong belief system. I also like to define fear as false evidence appearing true! We are told in 2 Timothy that God has not given us a spirit of fear. Wow! This tells us that fear is in fact a spirit, and this spirit does not come from God. God doesn’t want us to succumb to the lies of the evil one in the form of fear and ignorance.

Fear comes in many forms. Many people are afraid of failure, others are fearful of being alone, and others still are fearful of death. No matter what fear has attempted to attach itself to your life, you must understand that God has not given you a spirit of fear; instead, He has equipped you with power, love, and a sound mind.

Whenever we are operating in fear, we are neutralizing our spiritual power and authority. Beloved, I don’t know about you, but I don’t like being afraid! One day, while I was being attacked in my sleep by demonic spirits, I screamed the name of Jesus. Suddenly, the oppression lifted! It was then that I realized that the name of Jesus was stronger than the devil. There is no need to fear the enemy. He has no power in your life except that which you give him. Every fear in our lives is the result of a lie we have believed about God, ourselves, or others; however, the moment we accept God’s truth, the power of the lie is broken and fear leaves. The Scripture declares, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32).

Power Prayer

Heavenly Father, I thank You for who You are and all that You have done in my life. Your Word is the final authority in my life, and Your Word says that You have not given me a spirit of fear, but of power and love, and of a sound mind. I declare that I am fearless in Jesus’ name. I will not succumb to fear, cowardice, terror, or intimidation. I possess the mind of Christ, and Christ never operated in a victim mentality; therefore, I walk in bold faith and confidence in every area of my life. I am not a victim; I am a victor in Christ! Fear has no place is my thoughts or emotions in the name of Jesus. The Word of God declares, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Romans 10:17). I am a hearer of the Word of God, therefore; I choose great faith. Faith is the revelation of God’s Word in action; therefore, I am a doer of Your Word and not just a hearer. No weapon formed against me shall prosper, including fear, worry, or dread. I lift up the shield of faith and neutralize every fiery dart of fear and timidity in the name of Jesus. I declare that all irrational thoughts and phobias must leave me now in Jesus’ name. I have no fear because the Lord is the strength of my life and my salvation.
