Thoughts on overcoming fear

The Word of God says,'If God be for us,who can be against us!'

Being immersed into the Powerful Holy Spirit, nothing can harm us. Nothing, not even death. For we are not this body, as we merely live here while in this body. It is a vehicle getting our spirit, and God's Indwelling Spirit where it wants to be so as to complete His work through us.

When we experience this....fear becomes completely human. Fear becomes useless, for it is the greatest tool of the Devil. Fear, from this come nearly every form of sin. But we are not to allow the Devil or one of his spirits to control us through our Sin Nature, and exercise fear....the exact opposite of how God naturally made us. God wants us confident, so the Devil knocks us down and out of our natural state through clever use of the Sin Nature.

Through Abraham-like faith that we place into Jesus, and it must be THAT faith, Jesus will send His Holy Spirit into us and obedience will begin to reign. When we obey, that is when fear becomes eradicated and we are then restored into a stronger sense of our natural, Godly condition, which is to feel strong and confident.

No fear, but hold our heads high with dignity, just as God had wanted for the Hebrews as He led them out of Egypt!

[Lev 26:13] 13 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt so you would no longer be their slaves. I broke the yoke of slavery from your neck so you can walk with your heads held high.

Psalm 27:1-3
"The Lord is my light and my salvation—
whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—
of whom shall I be afraid?


When the wicked advance against me
to devour me,
it is my enemies and my foes
who will stumble and fall.
Though an army besiege me,
my heart will not fear;
though war break out against me,
even then I will be confident."

Fear can be debilitating when out of control,but our God is in control and can deliver us from it. The Psalmist said,'I sought the Lord and He delivered me from all my fears'.

Yes, we are delivered from our fears that come from the Devil. The fear of the Lord shall never leave us, though. I like to make this distinction between Holy fear and Satan's fear that He loves to plant into our minds. We should abandon forms of evil fear, rejecting them heavily and refusing to stay in it. For staying in the Fear of the Devil allows the Devils work to nearly be completed. Once Satan instill his form of fear, he sits back and watches us unravel and hurt thousands of people. I know, for I'm sure that I've hurt hundreds of thousands of people, considering my former line of work.

I work daily on getting rid of Satan's fear, and I recommend everyone do the same. Remove fear and watch confidence reel in enthusiasm!

And why would our Powerful, Almighty God want anything less?! No way! We are to be amazing creatures that can do absolutely anything. And in waking up, one will realize that in order to complete the Holy Work of boldness and strength, it comes from the Spirit alone. So, if we do not have boldness or strength, well....it isn't good.

Ears....open right now....please.

No, God has not given us a Spirit of fear, but, ability. I think many begin to assume lack of capability with fear so that if over-correction was exerted by the weak member without regard to the grace that God thought appropriate, it would serve as more of a distraction than element of edification.


Yet your ability does not let the weak remain immobilized. We grow and with it the Church rises up to the glorious image that was intended for her all long. We need you, and we need them, but more importantly, we need that Master of ceremonies, the Holy Spirit of unity to aid more and more support of herself as a body.

Amen! We 'fear no evil',for God is with us!

That kind of fear is from the Devil, so if we've had our Sin Nature removed, and if God indwells us, we are then able to clearly see that this form of fear is of the Devil. Um....I'm a puppet to no devil. Satan causes fear within us, we then act all nuts and crazy (which means the Devil is having a great time in this physical world as we spread STDs, etc,) and in the end, it's OUR BODY that becomes sick with disease....and Satan just laughs. I'm not kidding....about any of this. This is most literally what is happening to us and we don't even realize it. Talk about the "matrix".

If we have fear inside of us, it is the Devil convincing us to feel [His] way. So, as the bible says, who will we obey? Obey the Devil and be fearful? Or, find Jesus, ask for His Incredibly Holy Spirit and watch what happens TO and FOR you over the remaining years of your life?

We are responsible for providing God with a peaceful Temple to indwell. I'll just say it....Jesus won't send His Spirit into us if we hate it (our body) or if we're consumed with fear. Let us flick off this fear so that natural confidence can smoothly come in, and when the fear lessons, you will begin to hear God's voice and it will get louder and louder....clearer and clearer.

God has no use for Cowards. None. We must overcome fear. We have no choice. Where did it come from? The beginning...Adam and Eve were afraid and from there came shame and guilt within seconds. Not me. I don't allow Satan to use me like that anymore. For my shame and guilt always hurts others, and since this is the case, it must mean that I do not have the right to be weak and insecure.

Boldness. Strength. The Spirit will do this....I guarantee it. But first, you must possess Abraham-like Faith. This bible study is a requirement for interpreting the New Testament....just about all of it. ( **E*D*I*T** VERY sorry, wow....I should have added, "in my opinion".)

Those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty, while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it, so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other.

(1 Corinthians 12:22-25)​

If that's your own writing, I'll listen to you 8 days a week. I appreciated that a lot. I didn't read all that I wrote in context, but I can't imagine it being in disagreement with you. What you wrote would be difficult to write without the indwelling Holy Spirit. Man, all of a sudden you guys are coming out from everywhere!

I'd love you to invite me into your other discussions....I think you have a lot to offer, as the above was very insightful.

How nice Thess, and thank you. With my level of time (limited), I will certainly keep that in mind. But primarily, this is my hub of choice for such "unity".

I hear you. My time is limited, too, and God has knocked me down much closer to where I humbly need to be. I won't be starting any threads for a while, but I'd like to be a competent backup for all who possess the Holy Spirit. I'm ready to listen. I'm ready to learn. I'm ready to lead. Let's go and find the ones that genuinely need love....asap. That's what I need to do.

God is getting this done. It's happening right here, right now in this message with you. Instant brotherhood and respect on my part. It's just another set of miracles (that don't happen to pagans) in an amazingly long list of them, but this great one is of humility, for I may have just met the most evil man I'll ever meet, having purchased a 5 x 8 trailer for moving....today. I'm still mesmerized, truly, and at least 51% is how God shielded me and protected me. This "bible thumping" guru, literally, became so unraveled that I prepared myself for a swift, physical defense. He mentally became disheveled, lightly frothing at the mouth, turning the spittle into a thick, heavily white mucous that would snap between upper and lower lips. He was powerful, and while I admit that I began to cave, I marvel over how God assisted me as I could sense that he wanted to both punch and shoot me in the face as he cringed at me as though an idiot.

I got home, began to investigate and found that after he build his own house for $220 thou, it appraised for $666 thou. I then received personal emails, today, from literally 666@fakeforthis.com. Not kidding, I can send the emails right now. I can quickly take you to his public linkedin page where he says all of this. He's literally trying to take over the globe. And he lives here in Manson (as in Charles? This guy.....wow). Very hot and heavy, he told me that he's the most important man in the world and that no one knows what he knows. It was incredible. Of course, I was concerned, but God took over and gave this body the ability to remain calm and keep that possessed man calm. I'd like to say I was awesome, but I was not. God was....He used [my] body to defeat the evil spirit that was indwelling his poor, human body. That poor man! I am just so, so thankful that God has saved me from this wretched body of death. Now we get to take care of it diligently. And I'm serious about that too. I know you know what I mean.

So you can see, I'm done. I don't want to fight anymore. God showed the value of not fighting anymore today. It doesn't work....because it is a reflection of the Law of Moses. The more I debated with this man, who does not possess the Spirit, the more he was convinced by the Devil to disobey my good and righteous order and instruction. It was all good, but the Devil used this goodness to deceive him and to then cause conflict between the two of us. It's just all so unbelievable....what God is teaching me.

This is a "small" miracle in comparison all that God has granted me, but even this leaves me beside myself. The Power of God is shocking. It is so compelling that I'm actually lightheaded as I finish....in an overwhelming kind of way. I'm learning a lot really, really fast and it's, I guess, almost feeling like too much because it is so shocking and very, very serious. Whew.

Of this thing we can be sure. 'Perfect love casts out all fear!'

And that Perfect Love is the Holy Spirit, through Christ alone.

Thank God, every principality and power are subject to One power, we do not reject the Godhead, but break down all fallible intent creating by Him that new, living and tangible oracle of His blessing, co-workers and co-authored, sometimes waging directly into fears and struggles.

I do, I do, in public pray for and to the congregations hearing, but the soundness I possess otherwise has to struggle with the limitation of the deadness of the old man’s rebellious past mindset. The Shepherd’s shepherd knows all this.

And we press on. Thank You Lord for that hill that you have helped me overcome!
