The Spirit of Fear

I have come to the conclusion that what is mostly wrong with the world today is that there is so much fear. People, in general, are afraid of everything. No one wants to offend anyone, and they feel a deep sense of dread and danger when it comes time to stand up and do the job they have been called to do.

God has told us not to fear 365 times in the Bible. You would think that if you heard God say do not fear every day of the year, people would actually listen and obey.

Now, I have not found anyone who is fearless to do what is right and good. And, part of the problem there is that "right" and "good" are too open to interpretation.

I see it all around me. At church, when it concerns the government, when it concerns parenting, when it concerns our jobs, and it has paralyzed us as a people.

Satan is effectively taking over this world. All the evidence you need is the prevalence of fear surrounding us and flowing through us on a daily basis.

2 Timothy 1:7
“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

It has become so bad that those who tend to take chances, gamble on outcomes, and face challenges everyday are being cast by their peers as being stupid, idiotic, selfish and crazy.

And, yet, it is the fearless that change the world

Today, the World is due for a big change. It is going to take the fearless to do it and make it happen. If you have any doubt whether or not God has called you to be that people, read your Bible. He says it 365 times.

If you call yourself a child of the Most High God, then it is time you prove it by putting on some courage and growing some spine!

But, when you do, remember, it is the fearless that most people are afraid of!
