The closer an army gets to the heart of the enemy’s territory, the more fortified that territory is. FEAR is definitely at the heart of our enemy's territory. He uses it, in some form or fashion, to cripple our efforts to experience the TRUE abundant life promised by Jesus. This week, we HIT FEAR HEAD ON with the weapons God has given us, deploying worship, the Word, and prayer to BREAK THE SPIRIT OF FEAR off of our minds!

This week we talk about the atmosphere in our minds. Part of the maturation process of being a follower of Christ is learning how to be aware of, and proactive with, the atmosphere that exists in your mind. You know that if you continually think of negative things then you will have an atmosphere of negativity in your mind, and vice versa with positive thinking that creates a positive atmosphere. JESUS purposefully pulled away from the demands of the world around him on a daily basis to get refocused on God and HIS truth. We’re all pulled in a thousand different directions on any given day, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t keep our thinking in line with God’s truth. It takes time and practice, and YOU CAN DO IT!

There’s a healthy God-given fear that is instinctual and meant to protect us from known dangers, but there is also an unhealthy fear. Unhealthy fear can have its roots in something natural; fear of the unknown or of the future, rejection, abandonment or some other trauma, just to name a few. To some degree, many of us experience some level of anxiety over such things, BUT when that level rises to the point that it has a debilitating effect in our lives, we know that’s not part of God’s desire for us. This week, we look at fear from many angles, and discuss practical measures you can take to begin to walk in victory over the unhealthy fear that we all encounter.
