Perfect Love Casts Out Fear Dread is a relative of fear. The devil tempts us with dread to get us to confess fear instead of faith. But 1 John 4:18 says, There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into loves complete perfection]. Enjoy your day, knowing that God loves you perfectly. Dont dread the hard things that you must do today, because God is on your side and is ready to help you. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:13 NLT)
