FEAR IS A SPIRIT

TEXT. 2 Timothy 1:7.

 *_For God hath not given us the spirit of fear: but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind_ .* 

Man is quick in collecting stuffs that God is not giving, where as, he is slow at receiving what He is giving. One of the things God has not given us is spirit of Fear. He said He has not given us the spirit of fear. 

 *FEAR IS A SPIRIT. And it is not from God: it's from the devil.* Fear is an enemy of faith and will stop the power of God from working in your life. 

Now, instead of Fear, God is offering us three things :

 *1. Spirit of power:* Specifically miraculous power. That is, power for performing miracles. "And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.(Matthew 10:1). This power is only given to disciples, ARE YOU A DISCIPLE OF CHRIST? 

 *2. Spirit of Love* : *There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love.* 1John 4:18.

 *3. Spirit of Sound mind* : That is, Grace for sound judgements and abilities that result in calm, well -balanced mind and self -control. 

These are the things God has given us not the spirit of fear. 

Generally, fear is considered as 

 F-ake

E-vidence 

A-ppearing 

R-eal.

A number of times, what the devil is using to incapacitate men is this fake evidence. The only weapon the Lord has given us against fear is His word. Get rooted in His words. 

 *Fear not for I am with you :do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you : I will help you : I will hold on to you with my righteous hand. Isaiah 41:10.*

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

TIME IN ETERNITY

Text : Psalms 90:12  So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom._  Our God dwells in eternity past, present and future. In between these phases of eternity, He created man to dwell in Time. When man sinned, he fell short of God's plan, and death came in.(Rom 3:23). Death therefore short circuit man's life in eternity. This is the reason Jesus.came.  He had to come into TIME in order to remove the PAUSE  death HAD on man.  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.  Every man born into this world automatically becomes an eternal being. The question therefore is, which side of eternity would such a man dwell? Everlasting life or Everlasting condemnation? Time is an opportunity given to man to trade for eternal life. You have limited time to exchange for eternal life in eternity.  Time offers you the opportunity to ga...
