Victory Over Fear

September 14, 2014 • Pastor Jason Murphy

The Devil uses fear as a weapon to overwhelm the believer; causing them to become discouraged and lose sight of the victory they possess in Christ Jesus. If you are saved, you are on the winning side! Death and Hell have been defeated at the Cross. “But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord” (1 Cor. 15:57, 58).

David fled before the face of Saul in fear (1 Sam. 21:10). However, he learned to trust in the Lord, rather than tremble in fear (Ps. 56:3, 4). Likewise, fear should not control the believer. Confess your fear before the Living God and conquer it today. Christian, claim the promise that David knew, “…God is for me” (Ps. 56:9). Your victory is secure in Christ!
