How to Overcome Fear

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." {Isaiah 41:10 NIV}

"Trust in Him at all times . . ." {Psalm 62:8 NASB}

"Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You." {Psalm 56:3 NKJV}

"Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.]" {John 14:27 AMPC}

Overcoming fear is really simple, though this is not easy. Two steps are required. These are used whenever challenges come up:

  • Trust God.
  • Act like you trust God.

Practice doing this.

This will become easier over time.

That's what you need to know.

More information is available in the article entitled Dealing With Fear.
