"It's okay to be scared sometimes"

When a person becomes a believer the spirit is made right but sometimes the heart ream, the soul ream, the mind ream, it becomes a little slow getting the message because life's left a hole in it, due to molestation, low self-esteem, abuse, depression, hate but God is coming to heal that hole today.

Sometimes you just have to say thank you Lord, sometimes we just gonna get on our knees and just say "God rescue me from my self" and you realize that the best is still yet to come for you.

There are times when peoples advice will make you want to slap them, like this is a time for well-meaning christians to keep quiet sometimes. "You lost your job? Ehn God will provide" that's fine in certain context but sometimes it's more important of what we dont do than what we always do.

In times like this where so many people are desperate and fearful and we all feel scared, if you are not scared right now then I'm definitely scared of you because 'to have this flesh means to feel fear', so many things are going on in the world today, a known virus has stayed for too long and has become a world problem and a Pandemic, People are scared of getting infected with the virus.

How do you not be afraid?

en.wikipedia.org

You say each day to your self "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid" but you are still scared, scared coz you're still weak, you still got bills, you still got to show up at work each day, you still got a relative or a friend who is old and starting to cough and you wondering if you'd get to see her again or a relative who is ill and the doctors have given their report.

"What wont you do?"

You won't live in fear, you may feel it and experience a sensation but you wont likve in it. I felt my breathe short the other day before I went into the exam hall even though I had prepared and read all through the night, I was still scared but it doesn't have to stop me, somebody out there is discouraged, depressed, and on the edge, you can be scared but it doesn't have to stop you.

Not that I wont feel fear, or ask questions or sometimes in my mind when I'm praying prayers that really dont sound like prayers, but I wont back down, I wont surrender, I wont give in, I wont give away my peace. You might be scared but still stand on the word of God, the lord is delivering you right in this moment setting you free from addiction, and from distractions.

We must begin to look at "what are the things we can do that would put us in some form of firm footing in life?" that will enable us to do some things and use the powers we have, because many of us go through life never ever discovering that we can have those things working for us.

Part of that I believe is knowing what is your life's worth. "What is it that gives your life a sence of meaning and purpose?" because once you find that, it pulls you in your power place.

I encourage you to start working on it if you've discovered your worth do just a little bit of it, if you take a conscious effort towards that I can proudly say that it will save your life.

A practical example is "whenever you go through some places or some levels and you already know how much you're going to make and you're scared of how far your abilities can get you, it becomes a dead-end position for you which erodes on your self-esteem, lowering your believes and creating a ream."

Many of us dont move onto the next phase of our lives because we dont know how much potentials we have, we dont believe anything good can happen to us and we don't believe we deserve it, it keeps going on and on within us until we loose it out of being scared.

Redefine your faith from today, sometimes faith changes the way you see your situation, sometimes faith changes the situation itself but either way even if you dont see or feel it 'dont be afraid'.

You are scared but you wont let it hurt you any longer because;

"Jesus got your tommorow"

"You are not afraid of the future and because you know the man that holds it."

"You felt like almost choking in your breathe and because even in the midst of fear you still gonna get up, go out and do it."

"You wont stop praising God and because he's always there in the valley of vulnerability."

"You wont back down and because you will pass that course and failure wont be your portion."

"You are literally afraid of trusting God but if only just believe today, and because he can heal you of every anxiety."

"When you feel that the enemy is closing in on you Dont let him in because you aren't scared anymore."

"Are you scared of not being enough?"

So many of us are worried, about our lives these days on every level and we are worried because its hard for us right now to trust God with the things that we cant control. And someone right now is saying

"how am I going to train my child when i barely got out of high school?"

"how am i going to get this job when i dont even have any qualifications?"

More questions keep coming up like this, when you feel limited you operate in fear. This took me a while to realize because I always thought people where being selfish to themselves and beneath what appeared to be a selfish behaviour was really that they where scared.

When you get the feeling that you want to do something like talk to someone you're interested in, or ask for a raise, or to ask just a question, the longer you wait the more likely it is that you won't do that thing that you want to do, why? Because your mind starts to over think, make excuses after excuses "Oh what if I look stupid?" Oh what if I get rejected?"

Give your self a time limit, within this period you can be scared and lost in thoughts and when the time is up go for it.

Worry is a misuse of the our imagination, it does absolutely nothing but drain us of our real power but when you focus on the time limit you interrupt the doubts.

Thank you for reading.

Everyone gets scared quite some time but it's the faith that draws us away from it. We have to always put or trust always in Jesus, he alone is our solid rock. Thank you for this I can relate with it.

Did you say, its always good to be scared? I think it should be; it isn't good to be scared always. There are times we might be scared, but God says that He has not given us the spirit of fear but of a sound heart, we shouldn't permit fear at all in our lives.

Fear can put us into captivity if we allow it. We shouldn't allow fear at all even though it comes suddenly,we should immediately deny it. Nice one bro

Good write up, everyone feels scared sometimes but we must be able to snap out of it and be ourselves. From fear to power
