Fear

Fear is a normal and natural response under certain conditions. However, under other conditions, it is demonic and unnatural.

The very first expression of a sinner in the Bible was fear. Adam told God that "he heard His voice and was afraid." Genesis 3:10

Most all believers (ok, all) will encounter fear that is demonic and unnatural. Someone has said that FEAR is
F alse
E vidence
A ppearing
R eal.

Dr. Neil Anderson said last week, "There is one fear that expels all other fears. The fear of God will dispel all other fears."

Let that sink in for a while.

Jesus sent His disciples into a known storm and went into the mountain to pray for them. While the storm was raging, the disciples got fearful and thought they were going to perish. Jesus leaves His place of prayer to join them in a rescue mission and speaks peace to the sea and to their spirit.

Do you need peace in the midst of a fearful experience? Jesus is the answer. He is praying for you and me; but He has also sent His Spirit to speak peace to our spirit.
