SEVEN DEADLY FEARS Part 1

One of the blessings of our "covenant" with God is Freedom from Fear

(covenant means binding agreement- a contract)
For instance in our covenant with God we give him everything we have
and are (our entire being)
and He gives us everything He is and is able to do
for us

That is a covenant between two people or between us and God
Wow! Who gets the best end of that deal

************************
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law
Gal 3:13 & 3:14-29

Because of this covenant we have with God we have been set free from
the curse of the law and the blessings of Abraham are ours.
What is the "curse of the law" and the "blessing" of Abraham?

Deuteronomy 28:1-14 and 28:15-68 tell us what the blessings and the curse's are.

This covenant and these blessings make it possible for us to be
TOTALLY set free from fear
************************
Fear is a terrible thing: It is negative faith and will keep you from
receiving what God has for you.
In the book of Job it is written:

"For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that
which I was afraid of is come unto me". Job 3:25
******************
Fear is a negative magnet
"As Jesus went to heal the young ruler's daughter, messengers came
from the ruler's house bringing bad news.
while he yet spake, there came one from the ruler of the synagogue's house,
saying to him,thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master" Luke 8:49

Jesus warned him not to let fear overtake him, But when Jesus heard
it, he answered him, saying
"FEAR NOT, BELIEVE ONLY, and she shall be made whole" Luke 8:50
************************

FEAR ACTUALLY DRAWS DISASTER TO YOU
Anytime you allow fear into your life
The windows of heaven close, and the gates of hell swing wide open

FEAR CAN EVEN KILL
"Men's hearts failing them for fear"
Luke 21:26
This is speaking of heart attacks
***********************

As Christian we have nothing to fear,
because it is written
"Greater is he (God) that is in you, than he (the devil) that
is in the world" 1 john 4:4
*****************************

HERE ARE SEVEN DEADLY FEARS THAT KEEP US FROM
RECEIVING THE BLESSINGS OF GOD

1. The fear of the unknown:
Mankind tends to have a morbid curiosity about the future, that is why millions refuse to start the day without reading their horoscopes. (which is sorcery),

Christians also do this. They should not. God specifically prohibits this. Click here to find out what the Bible says about this . A certain curiosity is ok but when you combine curiosity about the future with fear of the future it can be deadly. We are to TRUST GOD AND NOT WORRY, He will take care of you.

2. The fear of death:
The fear of death has tormented mankind since the beginning of time. Even to this day, the entire world is in the grip of this enemy, but for the born again believer, there is no reason to fear death because it is written:
"O death where is thy sting? O grave where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ": 1 Cor 15:55-57

"In your presence is fullness of Joy" Psalms 16:11
"To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" 2 Cor 5:8

3. The fear of man:
The fear of man can literally paralyze you, but God says
"The fear of man brings a trap, but he who puts his trust in the Lord shall be safe (from men)" Proverbs 29:25

"We may boldly say the Lord is my helper, and I will not fear
what man shall do unto me"
Hebrews 13:5-6

4. The fear of failure:
In our goal oriented, performance based society, it is easy to
become overly concerned with possibility of failure.

When the fear of failure takes over it seriously hinders God's plans for your life. However you can overcome fear of failure by taking hold of God's specific
promises for your ongoing success.

Here are three scriptures you can
READ, MEDITATE, CONFESS and BELIEVE:
"Now thanks be unto God, which always causes
us to triumph in Christ" 2 Cor 2:14

"We are more than conquerors through him that loved us" Rom 8:37
"Study this Book of Instruction (BIBLE) continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do" Joshua 1:8
***********************************

These are 4 of the 7 Deadly Fears.
In our next lesson we will study the other three.

So lets review quickly
1 Fear is Deadly and destroys faith stopping us from receiving from God.

2 We have a wonderful covenant with God to free us from fear

3 We have been set free from the curse of the law and now
the blessings and promises of Abraham are ours.

4 God have set us free from the
following fears:
Fear of the unknown
Fear of death
fear of man
fear of failure
You do not have to have fear
*******************************

God is ALWAYS for us
"What shall we then say to these things?
If God be for us, who can be against us"? Rom 8:31
He is looking out for our good.
Believe this, have faith

"I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU, DECLARES THE LORD,
PLANS TO PROSPER YOU AND NOT TO HARM YOU, PLANS TO
GIVE YOU HOPE AND A FUTURE".
Jeremiah 29:11
