DELIVERANCE FROM FEAR

DELIVERANCE FROM FEAR


Psalms 34:4 4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.”
Fear is a very powerful weapon in the hands of the enemy, it is a faith neutralizer it can steal the miracle, and the blessings of God for our future, and if one is not delivered from fear,one may not reach the peak that God has prepared for him or her.

Fear can change a glorious destiny to nothing. A God ordained international star can be reduced to a local champion by fear. It makes one lose a battle even before the commencement, by stealing ones confidence. Problems like Goliath(1 Samuel 17) shows its size and stature to man, thereby bringing fear and when fear comes one will not be able to think of solving the problem. Fear makes a man to sink instead of swimming or walking on water (matthrew14:30).it makes man to craw instead of flying which makes man to be defeated. A fearful man or woman is a defeated and frustrated person.

8 DEFERENT KIND OF FEAR:

1. FEAR OF MAN: PROVERBS 29:25; LUKE2:4; PSALM 118:6
This type of fear brings man right under mental captivity. Thinking right will be made impossible when one is under the fear of man. Man is not created to fear fellow man.

2. FEAR OF DEATH: HEBREWS 2:15
This kind of fear limits man .it does not allow man to do what he has the ability to do. When one knows that death is a gain as Apostle Paul wrote and that Jesus who has the keys of death and hell in His hands can not use these keys against you, your fear of death should varnish. Jesus has already swallowed death in His victory. Fear of death simply leads to pre-mature death .in shot it is the stealer of a miracle and a blessing.

3. FEAR OF THE FUTURE
Fear of the future makes one to be useless today, thereby not being able to prepare for tomorrow. This kind of fear is not meant for believers because his word of God says it is well with the righteous.

Exodus14:13 “Moses answered the people “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again.

4. FEAR OF DREAMS: JOB33:14-15
Dreams are a revelation of what to come. Anytime a bad dream comes, the right thing to do is just to rebuke it. Dreams should not disallow you to enjoy your sleep. Do not fear your dreams; God has given you dominion over dreams .Ask to know the meaning of the dreams. The only thing to do is to work against bad dreams in order to prevent them from coming to pass in ones’ life.

5. FEAR OF EVIL AND ENEMIES: PSALM23:4; 125:3
No evil befalls man without a power bringing it up. This power is of the enermy.You are NOT created to fear the enemy. Learn to stand against them through prayer and fasting.

. Prepared by APOSTLE SAMUEL O.SHONGA APRIL 2011
6. FEAR OF IDOLS: PSALM115; 4-5 1 JOHN 4:4
Idols are a work of persons’ hands. They are small gods, they have a mouth but can not speak’; you are not supposed to fear idols because Jesus Christ has given you authority over
them


7. CAUSES OF FEAR
Man or woman falls into fear because of the thoughts that God is not there and that he or she is alone. The word of God say “fear Not; for iam with you. Isaiah 43:59.Then, if you know that God is with you why are you are afraid?
Man also thinks that God is not with him when some things which are not supposed to be in one’s life are there or when those things that are supposed to be in one’s life are not there. Other causes of fear include;
v Sin Isaiah 59:1-2 lack of trust in GOD, John15:5;
v Love of the world.James4:4
v prayerlessness, Philippians 4:6;
v Ignorance of the word of God; isaiah5:13.
8. CURES OF FEAR
Whenever people have a problem, they try to seek for help and solutions to the problems in three principles ways. These ways include :

Ø Looking within
Ø Looking around

In solving the problems of fear, looking within will make one lookup where the help will come from Psalm 121.up ward looking will allow you to do that which will attract God to you. If it is registered in your spirit whether man or woman that God is with you; you will be bold.

The things that draw God to you are:
