Mark 4:40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
Why are you Joan, so afraid? What are you afraid of? Do you still have no faith?
So I get to ask myself these questions! Why am I so afraid? Why am I so afraid? Oh Lord, Why am I so afraid? Do I really know why I am so afraid? What am I afraid of? What fear is it that has incapacitated me for so long? What fear has successfully reduced me to almost a shadow of myself?
Lord Jesus please speak to me! Father reveal to me this fear that has so much gripped me to the point of disobeying you, ignoring your prompting, operating beneath my stature, acting small, powerless, when the power that raised Christ from the dead is available for me and is actually within me?
What fear, Lord, can stand before The Blood? The blood of Jesus shed at Calvary speaks better than the blood of Abel. The blood of the new covenant! The blood shed for the remission of my sin and that of the whole world!
In answering these questions, So what next! What is it that I am afraid of? Something in my subconscious maybe! But then my Bible tells me that God has not given me the spirit of fear but of love, power and a sound mind – 2 Timothy 1:7
My Bible tells me that God’s goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life. Psalms 23:6. This means there is nothing to fear now or ever!

Therefore friends, regardless of the fear you have and anything that might come in the future, know that it is not ordained of God. Exercise your dominion mandate over whatever constitute fear in you. God has a daily instruction of “fear not” for you in the scriptures. READ YOUR BIBLE
Shalom! Shalom! Shalom!
Fear is a torment.
