Why Faith Will Always Triumph Over Fear

Fear is a formidable opponent.

It lurks in the shadows of our hearts

Waiting for the opportune moment to cast doubt and stifle our spirit.

It’s a force that can shake our confidence and fill us with uncertainty.

And yet, no matter how paralyzing a situation might feel, our faith will always triumph over it.

You see, fear focuses on surviving. Faith concentrates on living.

When the Devil plants fear in our hearts, we become ensnared in our worries and doubts.

We tend to dwell on the magnitude of our challenges rather than seeking the way out. 

But faith directs our eyes heavenward. 

It reminds us that God surpasses anything we might face.

In our Holy Texts, we see numerous examples of faith conquering fear.

Remember David and Goliath?

David, a young shepherd, faced a giant of a man. If David had given in to fear, he would have been paralyzed, overwhelmed by Goliath’s strength.

But David’s faith in God was mightier than his fear. He knew that with God by his side, he could overcome any obstacle, even a giant.

Similarly, our faith can empower us to confront and overcome our fears. 

It shifts our focus from the challenges at hand to the One who holds everything in His hands.

It allows us to walk boldly into the unknown, secure in the knowledge that God is with us every step of the way.

However, like a muscle, faith needs to be exercised to grow.

By seeking God through prayer, immersing ourselves in His Word, and trusting in His promises, our faith becomes unshakeable.

Every time we choose to lean on God, despite our circumstances, we exercise our faith muscle.

Remember, my friends, fear is a reaction. Faith is a decision.

A reaction is often instinctual and momentary.

But a decision is deliberate. It’s an active choice.

We are faced with that choice every day. We can react to our circumstances with fear, or we can decide to trust God.

So let us choose wisely.

God Bless,
