Fear is the lack of faith and trust in FATHER. In Luke chapter 12 Jesus spoke:
22 Then He said to His disciples, “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on.
23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
24 Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds?
Jesus tells us not to worry about our lives. Why? Because we all live beyond these physical bodies and this is such a small aspect of our existence. Some people are obsessed with their health but if you become spiritually mature, FATHER will guide you to the proper nutrition and exercise to optimize the effect without going overboard. Others spend inordinate amounts of time searching for the perfect clothing only to find it is out of style in a few short months. Focus on FATHER and HE will provide the appropriate direction and resources for you to fulfill your purpose on earth. Jesus continued:
25 And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
26 If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest?
We need to be grateful for where HE has placed us in life. Worry is a state of anxiety and uncertainty over actual or potential problems. One who worries is predisposed to focus on the problem rather than focus on pursuing FATHER for the solution. Worry does not change the outcome, it simply lowers your body’s vibrational status which supports life. That is why people who are constantly worrying tend to have health problems. Jesus is assuring us that FATHER is specifically concerned about us and our well being:
27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?
You cannot walk in fear and faith for they are opposing forces in your life. Worrying moves you away from great faith and toward “little” faith to the point of no faith. Stop it! Know that FATHER has a guardian angel who is mandated to watch over you and intervene at critical points in your life. I know this for a certainty as I have experienced interventions on my behalf. Quit worrying about demonic forces for FATHER will deal with them as required. Focus on your relationship with THE ONE WHO created you for HE watches over you and waits to hear from you. Fear blocks your ability to hear.
Fear is simply a lack of faith and faith comes by hearing, meditating, and embracing FATHER’S Word and promises to you. The world attempts to increase fear in order to control us. They would have us believe that disease is due to the lack of using their drug. They would have us believe that safety can only come by more government and less freedom. FATHER will lead you away from danger as you walk in THE SPIRIT.
Jesus gave us a Spiritual key to the above issues:
29 “And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind.
30 For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things.
31 But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.”
How simple! People try to complicate the solution but Jesus simplified it in a few words. Seek FATHER and fear will dissipate. Faith will replace the fear and you will be able to move mountains in order to fulfill your calling. Find those deep-seated fears and expose them for what they are. You were wonderfully made by FATHER and nothing should dissuade you from walking in the fullness of your calling. Jesus sums up this revelation with:
32 “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
33 Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys.
34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
We are placed on this earth to grow into full Spiritual maturity. Walking in faith is required to attain such maturity. Trusting in earthly riches does not promote faith but actually promotes fear of the future. When you physically pass away, your earthly riches get distributed. Why not distribute wealth according to FATHER’S purpose rather than the alternative? Show me your check book and your daily detailed calendar and I will show you where your heart is and what your priorities are. They will attest to either faith or fear.
