“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.”
I John 4:18 NKJV
God wants His children to live above fear and be victorious over failure and defeat. Fear is not of God and not from God. Believers must build their confidence in God and in His Word.
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”II Timothy 1:7 NKJV. Fear has torment. When you live in fear, you will come to defeat and failure. That will not be your portion, INJ. Fear is the opposite of faith. It comes by hearing the word of failure, and defeat.
In order words, victory comes through hearing the word of faith. “And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” I John 5:4. Faith comes by hearing the words of possibilities, and assurance.
It is your responsibility to position yourself where your faith will be built up and inspired.
Shalom!
