Don’t Fall Apart

Isaiah 54:11-12, 14, "O afflicted one, storm-tossed, and not comforted, Behold, I will set your stones in antimony, And your foundations I will lay in sapphires. Moreover, I will make your battlements of rubies, And your gates of crystal, And your entire wall of precious stones. In righteousness you will be established; You will be far from oppression, for you will not fear; And from terror, for it will not come near you. ” (ESV)

Ecclesiastes 3:11 (ESV) “He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, He has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that He cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.”

Psychologist say we are all born with 2 fears Fear of Falling Fear of Noise

Name Your Fears

Definition of Fear be afraid or feel anxious or apprehensive about a possible or probable situation or event, (i.e., "I fear she might get aggressive") Be uneasy or apprehensive about, (i.e., “I fear the results of the final exams.”) Concern: an anxious feeling, (i.e., “they hushed it up out of fear of public reaction.”)

Hebrews 10:35-36, “So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised.”

2 Timothy 1:7 “God didn’t give me the spirit of FEAR (timidity) but of POWER AND LOVE AND SELF CONTROL”

Definition of Doubt To fear or suspect. To lack confidence in: distrust (“I find myself doubting him even when I know that he is honest.”) To consider unlikely (“I doubt I can go.”) To be uncertain.

Believe These Promises: God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea… Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. -- Psalms 46:1, 2a, 10 I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears… The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. -- Psalms 34:4, 17

FEAR SHOULD NEVER BE YOUR IDENTITY BECAUSE YOUR IDENTITY LIES IN JESUS,

Psalm 55:22 “Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you...” 1 Peter 5:7 “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you”. Philippians 4:6 “Do not be anxious abut anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”

STOP WORRYING ABOUT IT  Calm Down!!

STOP WORRYING ABOUT IT  Calm Down!!  Stop Talking!!

STOP WORRYING ABOUT IT  Calm Down!!  Stop Talking!!  Quit Tripping!!

“God didn’t give me the spirit of FEAR (timidity) but of POWER AND LOVE AND SELF CONTROL ” -- 2 Timothy 1:7 BE COURAGEOUS

Those who live worry free are those who keep casting their burdens on the Lord until it becomes “as natural to them as breathing!
