Conquer The Fear

In the journey of faith many of us, come across different faith of many sizes (fear of a acne to fear to the fear of death; all sizes)

But is there a way, a man can overcome his greatest fears of life?

There is so much of physical stuff or motivational speeches out there, teaching about taking next step in your life and how to overcome it, motivating/satisfying you for a said period but after a while you are back to square-one. There exists something like a permanent physic/science which can help you, to do anything, without any fear. It's like doing impossible which is impossible for a normal being.

Goliath (the Giant) challenged the Israelites for a fight and no Israelite had the courage to go and fight against Goliath and even King Saul couldn’t make up any courage, because everyone we’re looking at the physical structure of Goliath (about 9 feet-1 Samuel 17:4) including King Saul. But when David, a lad took a step to fight against Goliath, David did not realise/acknowledge that he is too small for of Goliath nor looking onto/for the thousands of Israeli soldiers or King Saul. One thing David was focused was at the defeat of his enemy through God's power. His enormous faith on God made him to take that step and defeated Goliath. Every step of faith you take defeats fear.

David says "Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied. This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give you into our hands" (1 Samuel 17:45-47)

How did David get such enormous faith? From David’s childhood David was alone and rejected by his own brothers, But David used to take care of his sheep by praising God through Psalms, and David used most of his lone time in worshiping/seeking the presence of God. David’s loneliness pushed him to develop intimate relationship with God. Loneliness is not meant to depress or push you down but to deepen your relationship with the Master Creator. In most Christian lives loneliness helps to move deep with God and to know more about HIM.

Every time you try to communicate with God or spend time with the WORD OF GOD, You are bound to produce a spark of faith inside your spirit, And we all know that a little spark is enough to burn the whole forest.

Now think how David conquered fear. Every day moving with God gives you the ability to conquer the fear.

Faith and Fear cannot create a balance, one should have stronger faith than fear or fear dominating faith, yet in many having great faith, fear overtook faith. A little fear is enough to destroy whole faith in you (Galatians 5:9 tells ‘’A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump’’). This happens because there is no stability in faith and focus was onto fears weakening your entire base of faith.

When the base is not strong how can one build a building or a house survive the wind? Matthew 7:27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

One gets frightened because they are weak in that area. You need to boost up your faith to become stronger, and it's possible for a believer because GOD gave us not the spirit of fear but the Spirit of Boldness, when you need to realise the one living in you is stronger than your fears you will surely overcome your fears. That means you are boosting up your faith. This makes your faith base stronger and tougher. (Matthew 7:25) And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Realisation/revelation makes you to be more stable than before and makes your base stronger enriching with more strong faith in the Lord.

Realising (having a revelation of a) fact makes you bolder and tougher. When David was facing Goliath, David was not looking at the giant form but David realised God is bigger than his enemy. This made Goliath to look so smaller and inconsiderable in the sight of David.

Stop looking at your countenance, your abilities, your resources, your knowledge but start looking at God's countenance and that’s how David's defeated Goliath- a great fear for Israel. Know that our God is bigger than our problems. When David realised that God is bigger than Goliath, Goliath became so small to the eyes of David and David's faith on God made his eyes to look how God looks at.

Realisation moves your faith to grow to a higher level where you will see how GOD looks at.

Practicing this makes you greater and tougher opponent to the devil, even death will look so smaller to your eyes and you will crush death easily under your feet. When death itself is too small for you, what

can stand against you? (What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Romans 8 :31)

Realising the Word of God helps you to grow stronger in faith. Any problem you go through you can have a confidence that it will not harm you nor destroy you, how can a temple be destroyed when the creator resides in it? Don’t you know you are the temple of GOD?

(1 Corinthians 3 :16 - Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?)

Know that you are the Holy Temple of God and He desired to reside in you. And no one can come against it. You are more than a conqueror (Romans 8:37).
