Faith and Fear

Jan 14, 2023

Today’s Scripture

Job 3:25, AMP

For the thing which I greatly fear comes upon me, and that of which I am afraid has come upon me.

Today’s Word

Faith and fear have something in common. They both ask us to believe something that we can’t see. Whichever one you get in agreement with is the one that’s going to come to pass. “I’m afraid I’m not going to get well.” You’re using your faith in the wrong direction. Turn it around. “Father, thank You that You’re restoring health to me. I believe the number of my days You will fulfill.” A lot of times we don’t realize it, but we’re using our faith for the negative. We’re expecting defeat, sickness, or trouble.

Don’t go through life expecting the worst, anticipating bad breaks. “This virus is spreading everywhere. I’ll probably get it too.” Zip that up. Don’t dwell on the negative, on the what-ifs, and let that turn into fear and doubt. You belong to the Most High God. These things may come, but they’re not going to stay. Turn it around and start seeing yourself healthy and full of energy, living a long healthy life. Fear cannot stay where faith is.

Prayer for Today

Father, thank You that You are the Most High God who sees every unexpected and uncertain circumstance I will ever face. I declare that I will live from a place of peace and that my faith is firmly set in You. I expect to see good things coming my way today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
