The Bible tells us that fear is a \u2018spirit\u2019. This spirit has a mind that thinks and a voice that speaks, and if you allow it to\u2014it will control you. Today if you\u2019re battling a \u2018spirit of fear\u2019, make this your prayer: \u2018Lord, Your Word says when I seek Your face, You\u2019ll hear me and deliver me from all my fears (see Psalm 34:4). So I cast down every anxious thought that rises up against what I know about You and Your power (see 2 Corinthians 10:5). I stand on the promise that You\u2019ll never leave nor forsake me (see Hebrews 13:5). I rest in the truth that nothing is too hard for You (see Jeremiah 32:17). I rejoice in the assurance that You\u2019ve already given Your angels responsibility for keeping and protecting me in all my ways (see Psalm 91:11). I resist the spirit of fear, and command it to flee in Jesus\u2019 name (see James 4:7). By faith I decree that Your peace, which passes human understanding, will guard my heart and mind (see Philippians 4:7). Therefore, I will not let my heart be troubled or afraid (see John 14:27). In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.\u2019 <\/p>\n
Now instead of focusing on the problem, focus on the Problem-Solver\u2014God! That may not immediately resolve your difficulty, but it\u2019ll keep you in a peaceful state of mind while you wait for God to work. <\/p>\n
Isaiah said, \u2018You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in You, all whose thoughts are fixed on You!\u2019<\/i> (Isaiah 26:3 NLT) Note the word \u2018fixed\u2019.<\/i> As you go through this day with your mind \u2018fixed\u2019<\/i> on God, you\u2019ll have \u2018perfect and constant peace\u2019<\/i> (AMPC).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
