Victory Over Fear
2 Timothy 1:7 · Mark 4:35-41 · 1 John 4:18
For successful FAITHTHINKING©, the invisibility of fear must not position you for, or cause you to accept, its adversarial inevitability or invincibility. This teaching is not referring to our natural, many times helpful, ‘flight’ or ‘fight’ reflex reaction in emergency situations.

Victory Over Fear!!!
VICTORY OVER FEAR!!! FOR SUCCESSFUL FAITHTHINKING©, THE INVISIBILITY OF FEAR MUST NOT POSITION YOU FOR OR CAUSE YOU TO ACCEPT ITS ADVERSARIAL INEVITABILITY OR INVINCIBILITY. OUR TEACHING HERE IS NOT REFERRING TO OUR NATURAL MANY TIMES HELPFUL 'FLIGHT' OR 'FIGHT' REFLEX REACTION IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS. The Bible says, "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." (2 Tim. 1:7; also Read Rom. 8:15). NOTICE, FEAR IS A SPIRIT! It wouldn't matter whether this was or is the fear of tomorrow, fear of sickness or disease, fear of death, fear of failure, fear of loss or fear of people, or any kind of fear for that matter, the Word says it's not from God! Yet we fear our God…but more so as in reverencing Him… To be in awe of Him. Praise God, I would like you to see what Jesus says in the following Scripture in Mark 4:35-41: And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side. 36And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships. 37And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? 39And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith? 41And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?" We can also see the same story in Matthew 8:23-27 and in Luke 8:22-25.

Even when it feels like Jesus may be asleep
EVEN WHEN IT FEELS LIKE JESUS MAY BE ASLEEP, in our emergency situation, we know He never does, as the Word declares, "Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep." (Psalm 121:4). Jesus says to the disciples in verse 40 that their action amounted to being fearful and was evidence of no faith. So exercising our Jesus' faith gives us victory over fear. Again, we walk by faith, not by sight (2 Cor. 5:7). For the victory that has ALREADY OVERCOME the world, is OUR FAITH and whosoever is born of God, CONTINUOUSLY OVERCOMES the world (1 John 5:4). This faith works through love. Through that love, the Bible also says faith manifests in Gal.5:6, "For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love." And what is the connect here?... Let's go to 1 Cor. 13:7, where it says, AGAPE, "Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things." Praise God, as we walk by faith in His Agape love, that love BEARETH, BELIEVETH, HOPETH and ENDURETH ALL THINGS, CONTINUOUSLY OR REPEATEDLY!!! The love of God keeps us believing or exercising faith IN ALL THINGS and never being hopeless and carrying on walking with Him and being apologists for the faith testimonially, to His glory! That's why, love is the greatest of all three virtues in 1 Cor. 13:13, "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity." AGAPE HAS IT ALL. You will also see as we go further, that the Word of God tells us about the 'anti-dote' to fear and that is AGAPE, the God kind of love. It is GOD'S, FREE, REASONED, WILLFUL, BENEVOLENT AFFECTION OF DIVINE PREFERENCE. That is quite some coverage and breakdown of His love for us. "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love." 1 John 4:18 Now, it says THERE IS NO FEAR IN LOVE! Also, perfect or complete Agape CASTS OUT FEAR CONTINUOUSLY! (1 John 4:18). It goes on to say that fear torments or punishes CONTINUOUSLY and anyone allowing that fear is not allowing that Agape love. MAY THE LORD HELP US TO HAVE VICTORY OVER FEAR as we yield CONTINUOUSLY TO THE HOLY SPIRIT in moment by moment repentance and using our Jesus' faith in allowing a WILL ALIGNMENT with God's will, in our mind of Christ, so as to CONTINUOUSLY EXPERIENCE THE SUPERNATURALLY EXPONENTIAL, IN JESUS' NAME!
