Truly, there are many things in this world and the spiritual world which, indeed, are very dangerous.
and if we do not have an anchor in God and His Son, Jesus Christ, our lives and our souls are in peril.
There is a WORLD RULING SPIRIT OF FEAR’, who sends out spirits of fear over every conceivable situation that we could imagine.

Fear is paralyzing. Fear is terrorizing.
Scripture says in I John 4:18 “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love.”
The greatest commandment of all is (Matt. 22:37-40) “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and all thy soul, and all thy mind (and all thy strength).
When we submit to God, something changes in us. We no longer are analyzing every feeling, and every terrible possibility that could happen to us or our family, or our nation.
Submitting to God is taking our minds off of ourselves. It is destroying a destructive self analysis of our selves and our situation. It takes the focus off of us and puts it on the God that we’re supposed to love with our whole being.

Disobedience to this commandment opens the door to demons of fear and rebellion, and believe me, if you open this door they will come in.
You have given demons by your disobedience an invitation and right to enter your life. Also take note that the second greatest commandment is “to love your neighbor as yourself”.
Again, if our focus is on ourselves we cannot love our neighbor as our self, we will only be concerned with our own interests.

When we put God first, our focus and priorities become his priorities, and love enters our lives and fear goes out the backdoor. Again, REMEMBER, “PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR”.

Watching too much negative news can cause fear also. We may need to change the channel, and take some of these terrible issues to the Lord.
Use the news to do spiritual warfare and intercession. Maybe find someone else to pray with, and together bind the anti-Christ spirits that are manifesting in every way that contradicts God’s Word, and Plan for this country and your life.
Obeying Matt. 6:33 counteracts fear and brings peace. “Seek ye ‘FIRST’ (not your interests first) the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you”.
You won’t have to worry about having enough of anything, because you have sought first the kingdom of God.
Now that does not negate my and your responsibilities to work and provide for ourselves and family. It does not negate spending wisely, and making wise decisions.
A lack of trust in God will also cause fear. If you don’t believe God loves you enough to take care of your every need and concern, fear will begin to take over in your life, but don’t let it.
Lack of love allows a spirit of fear to enter you and bind you, and with every passing day it will get stronger and stronger as that demon of fear puts chain after chain around you.

It will take hard work and a discipline of your mind to change this. You must discipline your mind to focus on God and His goodness.
You must take your bible and find scriptures that show how much God cares for you and is no respecter of persons (that is he doesn’t love one more than another).
Take the scripture (2 Timothy 1:7) “For God has not given us the spirit of fear (so cast it out in Jesus name), but of power
, and of love, and of a sound mind”.
Quote it to God, Quote it to yourself, and quote it with authority in the ears and hearing of Satan.
Also quote Isa 41:10 “Fear thou not for I am with thee, be not dismayed for I am thy God. I will strengthen thee, yea I will help thee, yea, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness”.

THE WORD IS ALL POWERFUL. It has the life of God in it, but, it is absolutely necessary that you believe what you quote, or it will be counterproductive.
THE LIFE AND POWER IN THE WORD IS SHORT CIRCUITED IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE WHAT YOU ARE QUOTING. If the Word tells you to believe something, then believe it.
If the Word says to do something, then act on it.
It may take time, maybe even a long time, BUT BE PATIENT.
If you and I do what I have just written about, it will take place. GOD WILL CONFIRM HIS WORD BY ANSWERING YOUR PRAYER, AND FAITH AND LOVE WILL BEGIN TO RULE YOUR LIFE.
WHEN THIS HAPPENS, GOOD WILL STARTS HAPPENING TO YOU AND ME, AND PEACE AND LOVE WILL MANIFEST AS FRUIT IN OUR LIVES, AND POWER WILL BE THE RESULT.
POWER TO ACCOMPLISH WHAT GOD WANTS ACCOMPLISHED IN YOUR LIFE.
