Is your God bigger than any and all of your fears? God has said, in 2 Timothy 1:7, that He has not given us the spirit of fear. So if God has not given us the spirit of fear, where then has the spirit come from? To whom, through whom has this fear come? If not from God, then obviously from the enemy, the thief that comes to steal, kill and destroy (see John 10:10).
Consider your fears. What are those fears that keep you from achieving your divine potential? From accomplishing your God given purpose? From being all that you can do or be? Fear of people ... rejection, being told no ... lack, not enough ... money ... speaking in public, before a group ... embarrassment ... failure ... taking the first step ... . What are you afraid of? What makes you scared. What are you running away from? What makes you hesitant? What gives you pause?
After Job's great loss of all his children and their families, his wealth, and his health. he said that what he feared the most had come upon him (see Job 3:25-26). What were Job's fears?
Is your God bigger than your greatest fear? Is your God big enough to get you past all your fears? Is anything impossible for your God? Is anything too hard for your God? How big is your God? Since God has not given you the spirit of fear, what has he given? See 2 Timothy 1:7, for God has given you the spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. Is your God big enough for you to accept this truth and be made free from all your fears?
