365 times the Bible says fear not
That's a fear not for every day of the year
Fear paralyzes it makes you spiritually immobile
Fear produces pain when there is no hurt
fear binds without cords
Fear hinders what hell can't halt
Fear binds your friend and looses your enemy
What faith does to God fear does to the devil. Fear see's obstacles not opportunities
Fear is a magnet to call in everything opposite of what God wants to do in your life
That's why Job said the thing that I feared the most has come upon me
When you enter into a life of fear, you attract the thing that you hate
We do not have to fear
Because when God is near we don't have to live a life
tormented with fear. To Zachariah the message was fear
not your prayers have been heard. To Mary the message was fear
not Mary, don't be afraid because you have found divine
favor with God to the Shepherd's the message was fear not
Exceeding great joy is coming in your future and to the
message to Joseph was fear not what is happening in your life is being birthed by
the Holy Spirit Himself
Fear not because your prayers have been heard
Fear not because you have obtained the divine favor of God upon your life
fear not because
exceeding joy is coming in your future
and fear not because what God is doing is
supernaturally birthing something in and through you by the power of the Holy Spirit
Great joy is coming don't rejoice about just what you've got
Rejoice about what you got rid of and I'm here today to tell you you don't have to be afraid because your past
is pardoned
Fear not because your present is powerful
But don't stop there fear not because your future is promised
Have you forgotten that we're headed to a city
Where the lamb is the light and there is no sorrow there is no tears. There is no sickness death or dying
fear not death
fear not devils
fear not disease
fear not calamity
Why because he is Emmanuel
Emmanuel means three things. He's God in us
He's God with us
But many of you forgotten the third thing he's God who is for us
God is not just with you and in you but somebody needs to hear this today
God is for you. He knows what you've done. He knows who you are, and he still wants you to know
I'm not against you. I'm with you. I'm in you and I am for you. Stop thinking I'm trying to get you back
I'm for you
The realization of the presence of the Lord with us
What a great comfort
To have the Lord say don't be afraid
I am with you
Paul writing to the Romans said if God be for us
who can be against us David said
I'm not gonna fear because the Lord is with me
The Prophet Isaiah said fear not
For I am with you
Be not dismayed
for I am your God
I will strengthen you I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you by the right hand of my righteousness
Are you going through uncertain times right now
Are you troubled about the future
as you seek the Lord
and as you commit your ways to him
He's promised to be with you
He said I will never leave you or forsake you
Lo I am with you always even to the end of the world
David said I will not be afraid
of what man can do to me for the Lord
is on my side
You with David can confidently face the Giants of this world
Who may come against you with the sword and the shield
But you come against them in the name of the Living God the Lord is with me
The Lord is with me to help me. The Lord is with me to guide me. He's with me to strengthen me
He's with me to deliver me from the enemy
God said my ways are not your ways my ways are beyond your finding out
And in those places where we don't know we just have to trust ourselves to the wisdom of God
You're wise and I'm just trusting you Lord and I find comfort I find rest
The fear in the apprehension leaves
As I put it back in his hand and say well Lord. I am yours
I know you're in control of these situations
And though I don't know why
Yet Lord I trust you
And I'm confident that you have a plan and a purpose
Far beyond anything that I can see
God is for you and if God is for you
Who cares who's against you
If you're under the divine favor of God
How can man stop you
God can do more than I can say
God can do more than I can believe
God can do more than I can imagine
But it has
To come in my life there has to come
Something where the spirit of fear gets broken off
Fear not that you're gonna go back to what God brought you out of
Fear not that you're gonna get cancer or the cancers coming back
Fear not that bad things are going to happen to you. That's not the voice of the Holy Spirit
Fear not that your children are going to be harmed in some horrible accident
Here's what I feel like saying today. You will have that baby
You will live and not die
You are going to get married if you will wait on the Lord in the timing of the Lord and it will be blessed
Don't let fear dominate your life. I rebuke fear fear not
It's going to be alright
He is not giving you the spirit of fear
That attacks your mind and your body and you live wondering what's gonna happen today
He's not giving you a spirit of fear, but as a power and of love and of a sound mind
I guess what I'm saying is don't go to the funeral until something's dead
We're burying stuff that's not dead
Some of you buried your vision and your dreams and you call and it's not even dead
Quit trying to bury things that are still alive
I said fear not
Man, enjoy your life. Why are you here
And I tell you I think that it's time to celebrate what didn't happen
A lot of things could have happened and a lot of things should have happened
But here you sit by the goodness of God, and I know you're thankful for all that
God has done but I think when we get to heaven we're gonna shout over
More what what didn't happen then what did happen when we get to see the full picture of how God
held back the enemy and
protected and didn't let us get things that we thought we had to have
But God said I won't let it happen because that's not my best for you
You say thank you for what didn't happen
God wants us to become so grateful for what he has done in what he didn't let happen
Because the real antidote
To panic is praise
The antidote to worry is worship
And that's why every one of those people that had a fear and the angel came and said fear not
Because your prayers have been answered
Fear not because there's great joy coming in your life fear not because you're under the divine
Favor of God fear not because the Holy Spirit is moving
in your life to bring the past the thing God wants to birth through you fear not because the
Emmanuel is in you with you and for you
The way to defeat fear is to begin to magnify God
Magnify means you make him bigger than your fear. I don't want you afraid of tomorrow
I want you to lift up your head and I want you to walk in confidence knowing that your prayers have been heard
knowing fear not
the divine favor of God is on you
