Fear knocks at the door and faith answers. I suffer from an anxiety problem due to a traumatic childhood. A lot of this has been removed from my life due to the Lords graciousness and reading the word that promises us protection as children of the (Great Jehovah) Our Abba father.
As the only relief is from contact with God this keeps me close to him in prayer and thankgiving.
All things work together for those who love God.

Thank you so much for the fellowship I feel from reading all your comments.

Yours in Christ Jesus

I enjoyed the message about fear and peace. Sometimes I fear and though I know the word speaks about fear. At times I feel unworthy.Like I have to compete, if I fail or make a mistake. Thank God he hasn’t forsaken me. Please pray for me and I will do the same.

What a great message on peace or fear. I am an older woman who just lost a son and a sister. Now my house that I love is about to be sold. My deepest fear is the future as I wonder where will the money come from to buy my medications and where will we live. There is a gap in my insurance and there will be a year where my income will register as though we were still getting the amount my husband and I were getting the year earlier. God has been so good to me and I have no doubt HE can handle all this. So I cannot understand why I worry about this. Thank you for the prayers that come to us online. No matter what else JESUS IS LORD.

When I am filled with fear I try to simply pray “GOD’S PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT ALL FEAR”…. Satan is such a lier and many of the fears that we encounter are from him for he knows that if we overcome the fears in our lives/christian walk then we would be more effective here on earth and to GOD’S KINGDOM here on earth. Some fear is “GOOD” as the Bible declares such being “He who fears the Lord our God”. We just need to keep on calling upon the Holy Spirit within each and everyone of us for gudiance in determining what is healthy and permitable fear and what is not….

Lord in Jesus name help us all to overcome the fears in ourlives that do not belong. Help us to all have more and more confidence in you when it comes time for us to challenge the fears in our lives that hold us back in becoming effective in our christian lives here on earth.

Bless you, dear Ladies, so much strength in these comments today..And, Katherine, you helped us with Psalm 121:3..and the beautiful prayer thanking HIM for never sleeping..always on guard on our behalf. I was a Christmas week baby and have always loved that special time of year? But what a wonderful thing that we, whom HE has called..have the “Prince of Peace” in our lives EVERY day. HE understands those human days when fear “trys” to invade and gently draws us under His “Sheltering Wings”..Thank the Lord for Psalm 91 every day, too! Amen!!

Hello everyone.A few months after my husband and I got married ,I Moved into his house,a2 story w/basement I wasn’t comfortable in the house yet.My husband went to night shift , I was scared to be here alone it didn’t help someone tried to break-in twice during that time.this time when we knew he was going to go to nights I was in panic.We install lights and an alarm system.but it didn’t help i would start praying in the afternoon, before he had to leave that night, I would still stay up all night(just in case) but God showed me I wasn’t trusting him enough to guard me through out the night, like he said he would.I was asking him to but I was putting more trust in my fast reaction and my phone(just in case.)then I was in God. He showed me where my fear were coming from, 2 timothy 1;7 , he also told me I can not serve 2 masters, All my actions were being controled by fear and not the peace he has promised me.I still ask God for a hedge of protection for our safety, but now for my kids at school, everytime I get in the car, and or my husband at work , not just at night anymore.I choose to serve my Lord, I know he doesn’t need my help so now I go to bed.

Thank you Lord for showing me the areas in my life I was fellowshipping with fear.Thank you for showing me the fruit of fear was causing doubt and untrust in my life.God you are faithful and loving and you are the one I will serve.Thank you for showing me how to escape the control of fear and how to enjoy your peace.

Thank you I needed to read that devotional today. My son and daughter-in-law are going to India, China and S. Korea for at least a year. All the “what ifs” have been playing through my mind. I know I need to leave them and all their travel arrangements etc. in God’s hand and I have done that, but I keep pulling it all back and worrying. Psalm 121:3 just really spoke to me when I needed it the most.
