How to Overcome Your FEAR of Witnessing

Understand that FEAR is normal.

“When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence or superior wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. 2For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling.” 1 Corinthians 2:1-3

“For when we came into Macedonia, this body of ours had no rest, but we were harassed at every turn – conflicts on the outside, fears within.” 2 Corinthians 7:5

Ask FRIENDS to pray for you.

“Pray also for me… that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel… Pray that I may declare it fearlessly as I should.” Ephesians 6:19-20

Expect to FACE opposition.

“Do you remember what I told you “Do you remember what I told you? A servant is not greater than a master. Since they persecuted me, naturally they will persecute you.” John 15:20 (NLT)

FOCUS on your rewards.

FOCUS on your rewards. ETERNAL

“The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor.” 1 Corinthians 3:8

FOCUS on your rewards. EARTHLY

“I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ.” Philemon 6

FORSAKE the “win-them” mentality.

“What, after all is Apollos. And what is Paul “What, after all is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you come to believe – as the Lord has assigned each to his task. 6I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. 7So neither he who plants nor he who waters anything, but only God who makes things grow.” 1 Corinthians 3:5-7

Don’t FORGET that you have good news.

Don’t FORGET that you have good news. “Gospel” = Good News

Don’t FORGET that you have good news. “Gospel” = Good News Luke 2:8-11

FINALLY, remember that it is an obedience issue.

“For the Son of man came to seek and to save what was lost.” Luke 19:10

“Again Jesus said, ‘Peace be with you “Again Jesus said, ‘Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.’” John 20:21

What now?

What now? Based on what we have just seen in God’s Word, what should you do today?

Make the DECISION to defeat your fears.

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love and self-discipline. So you must never be ashamed to tell others about our Lord.” 2 Timothy 1:7-8

Knowing it is God’s will, and with God’s help, starting RIGHT NOW I will not let fear keep me from witnessing.
