It's your early morning praise party.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I am Sherry Mackie, and it's time right now for
today's word. Fear has to flee. Fear has to flee.
Two Timothy one and seven says, for God has not
given us a spirit of fear, but of power and
of love and a sound mind. You know, there's a
(00:23):
lot in the world right now that could make you fearful, headlines, finances, health, concerns,
uncertainty about the future. Fear often tries to move in quietly,
settling in our minds through worry, anxiety, and all the
what ifs. But today's scripture reminds us of something very,
very powerful.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Fear Does it come from God?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
So if it doesn't come from God, you know where
it comes from, right the enemy. It's not a part
of God's gift to you. What he has given you
is power, love, and a sound mind.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
But the Bible also.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Tells us that the thief comes to steal, kill, and
to destroy, the opposite of what God comes to do.
When fear speaks, it always exaggerates. It tells you that
things will never get better, that you're not enough, that
the situation is too big.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
For you to handle. But when faith speaks.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
It reminds you that God is bigger than the storm,
that He's already made a way through, and that his
perfect love cast out all fear. You have the power
to shift your focus today. Instead of agreeing with fear,
come into agreement with God's truth. Declare, I have power,
I have love, I have.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
A sound mind.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
You may not feel strong right now, but strength is
rising in you because the same spirit that raised Christ
from the dead lives on the inside of you. You
have everything you need right now to walk in peace,
to walk in courage, and to walk and live stablely.
No matter what's happening around you. You can be stable.
(02:03):
Remember this fear is a liar, but faith tells the truth.
Fear looks at the storm, but faith looks at the Savior.
And when you fix your eyes on Jesus, peace will
take the place of panic, and confidence will silence the chaos.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Come own.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Jesus, Father, thank you that You've not given us a
spirit of fear, but of power.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
And love and a sound, ready mind.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
When worry tries to take over, help us God to
remember that we have your strength, that we have your peace,
and we have your authority. God. Right now we choose
to walk encourage today, knowing that you are with us,
you never leave us, you never forsake us, and God,
fear has no place in our lives. God, we will
(02:53):
walk in authority, we will walk in peace, and we
will walk out everything you called us in Jesus' name. Hey,
now that's your work for today. I want you to
take it apply to your every day life as you
continue to be fearless, realizing fear has to flee.
