Faith is the absence of fear. I am still learning faith. Currently, there is a flood risk in the state of Louisiana. Louisiana is my home. the media is sending out messages of fear. I have had to stand on the scripture that states we should be anxious for nothing. I could allow myself to be overcome by fear, but I cannot. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. I live to please God. Therefore, I must learn to reject the spirit of fear.
God has not given us the spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind. If we doubt, we should not believe that we will recieve anything from God. I say "we" because I am including myself. I have to regularly study scripture and pray to keep the spirit of fear away. Our minds have to be renewed in order to live a victorious life. We are born in sin and shapen in iniquity. It takes years for us to be corrupted by Satan. It often takes years to become uncorrupt. Operating in faith is not simple. We have to study and pray. The Bible is our textbook. Are you learning faith?
