Description: Fear distorts our vision, causing us to see threats that aren't there, just as the disciples mistook Jesus for a ghost when he walked on water. The opposite of faith isn't doubt but fear – while doubts can coexist with discipleship, fear paralyzes us from following Jesus faithfully.• Scripture commands "do not be afraid" 366 times – one for every day of the year• Fear looks at circumstances and believes they control our future• Faith looks at the future with trust that God is in control• Fear is a spirit, not just a feeling, and doesn't come from God• Courage is acting on God's word despite being scared• Jesus' presence dispels fear – "Take heart, it is I"• We must snatch back trust from circumstances and place it in JesusIf you want to help equip other men for the fight, share this podcast around and leave us a five-star rating and review.Support the showWant to connect?
