says, "...Every word has come true of all His good promise..." (NLV). Fear leaves when you can rely on something that can’t fail. God has never failed to fulfill His promises. There are over 1000 predictions or prophecies in the Bible—promises that God made before they happened. The chances of merely 17 of these coming to pass are 1 out of 450 billion x 1 billion x 1 trillion! Yet, not one of these promises has failed.
, Job feared that his children would curse God, and that’s what happened. When you realize fear has the power to produce negative results, you stop dabbling in it. When a child learns what fire can do, he no longer plays with matches!
) Flood your mind with thoughts of love—God’s love for you, and what He was willing to do to rescue you. If He would die for you, while you were in sin and separated from God, there’s just nothing He wouldn’t do for you! Think on that, and fear will leave.

Fear is at the root of just about every negative thing that happens in our lives. We’re afraid of failing; afraid of being alone or rejected; afraid of running out of money; afraid that people will let us down; afraid that we won’t find a spouse or the one we found will leave us.
All fear is rooted in the core belief that God’s Word won’t work. For example, the fear of not having enough is rooted in the fear that Philippians
4:19 isn’t true. If you believe that "God will supply all your needs according to His riches..." then fear leaves.
MEDITATE ON THE FACT THAT GOD'S WORD IS TRUE
In John
17:17, Jesus said, "Thy Word is truth." What God says is fact—whether you feel it, see it, or have ever experienced it.
CONSIDER GOD'S TRACK RECORD
1 Kings
8:56 says, "...Every word has come true of all His good promise..." (NLV). Fear leaves when you can rely on something that can’t fail. God has never failed to fulfill His promises. There are over 1000 predictions or prophecies in the Bible—promises that God made before they happened. The chances of merely 17 of these coming to pass are 1 out of 450 billion x 1 billion x 1 trillion! Yet, not one of these promises has failed.
ACCEPT THE TRUTH THAT WHAT WE FEAR COMES UPON US
In Job
PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR
(1 John
THERE IS A PROMISE FROM GOD'S WORD FOR EVERY NEED YOU WILL EVER EXPERIENCE
In fact, there are over 7000 promises in the Bible. That’s 7000 solutions to life’s problems! For example, there is a promise of protection in Psalm
PAUSE AND DWELL ON THE FACT THAT GOD IS WITH YOU
God’s presence is the secret to a fear-free life. Ultimately, all fear is a sense of God’s absence or our separation from God. By contrast, a sense of God’s presence delivers us from fear. Hebrews
10:19 says, "We are in His presence by the blood of Jesus." You are in His presence now—therefore, fear not!
THINK IT AND SAY IT!!
God’s Word is true, whether I feel it or not. He has kept all of His promises and has never failed. I am in God’s presence by the blood of Jesus; therefore, because He is with me, I will fear no evil! God loves me perfectly, which casts out all my fear. I have power, love, and a sound mind, in Jesus’ Name!
