Freedom From Fear Is in Your Mouth

Around every corner, behind every bush, in every shadow or passing thought, fear—anxiety about something or someone—can try to get your attention. It can be something as simple as what to wear, getting the kids off to school, or what to have for dinner. It can be as life-altering as packing for a big move or being in an accident.

Good news! You don’t have to be held hostage to the fear of anything or anyone any longer. It’s possible for a believer to experience freedom from fear with the power of faith. You can literally talk your way out of fear by speaking freedom, because your words have power.

God’s Word is truth, and it not only frees us from fear, but it also builds within us courage and strength (Joshua 1:7-9). There is a catch, however, to enjoying this freedom Jesus promised. You have to believe that God means what He says and that this freedom is for you—that’s faith!
