God is in control of your life. That means He is sovereign, ruling over all. He knows your past, present and future. Turn your focus to Jesus Christ - He will never let you down. Meditate on these verses and commit them to memory. They will help you keep your focus on Christ and remind you of His conquering power. God wants you to trust Him and not be afraid. “The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread? When evil doers came upon me to devour my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell. Though a host encamp against me My heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of this I shall be confident.” Psalm 27:1-3 (NASB) “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. You dost prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; Thou hast anointed by head with oil; My cup overflows. Surely goodness and loving-kindness will follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” Psalm 23:4-7 (NASB) Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Proverbs 31:30 (NASB) Fear stifles our capacity to think clearly and rationally, thus affecting our behavior. It leads to indecision. We are afraid to make decisions for ourselves or others. Such indecision creates constant anxiety. Fear doesn’t help us anticipate what may happen, but diminishes our capacity to achieve. We stop trying to accomplish certain goals due to our fears. Fear can cause panic. We suffer from anxiety attacks and other debilitating emotional upsets. Fear fosters torment. Fear damages our relationships with others. We are afraid to be around other people, or what they might think. Once you have learned to put your trust in God, you will no longer be afraid of the things that come against you. You will be like the psalmist and, you can be set free from fear, even the most irrational kinds that keep you from enjoying life, and experience a supernatural Christian life full of peace that Jesus gave to us to enjoy.
