Fear is like a virus that keeps us from living the life that God has called us to. It is a weapon that the enemy uses on us.
We must stand our ground and face our fears, so God has our permission (faith) to work on our behalf.
Fear comes at us like a storm. We must take our fear and shape it into a prayer. Fear prompts us to pray. End the prayer in faith by thanking God in advance.
We must reject Satan's lies. Then, we rest in our trust in God. Never be afraid to put your unknown future into the hands of a known God.
2 Timothy 1:7English Standard Version
...for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

And the virgin's name was Mary. 28 And he came to her and said, “Greetings, O favored one, the Lord is with you!” 29 But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and tried to discern what sort of greeting this might be. 30 And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus.
