Ep. 318 - Fear's Distortion

MINISTRY MOMENT

When you encounter hardships or stressful situations, do you find it easy for fear to distort your reasoning and response?

PRAYER POINT

“Father, thank You that YOU have an amazing plan and purpose for my life. Help me realize that You have not given me a spirit of fear! I can have strength and wisdom to respond to hard situations in my life. Help me see these hardships the way that You see them. Thank You for leading me and guiding me. In Your name, I pray, Amen!”

GOING DEEPER

Read and study Deuteronomy 1:19-45 and 2 Timothy 1:7.

WALK IT OUT

The next time that you encounter a fearful situation, remind yourself of how Joshua and Caleb responded to the giants and armies they saw in the Promised Land. Ask God for that kind of faith - not the fear of the other ten Israelite spies.

SHARE WITH OTHERS

If you see a close friend or family member who is struggling with fear, worry, or doubt in a hard situation, remind them and encourage them with these Biblical truths. It’s good for all of us to be reminded that each day we can choose faith over fear!
