And it just hit me hard all of a sudden, not like I never knew before, but the view became so much clearer. What am I talking about?
Imagine you seeing some pesky flies outside your house, but close to your door. Of course, you would ensure you door is closed, and any other way the flies could probably come in. And once that is done, you aren't bothered anymore. You go about doing what you were doing, as long as you don't open the door. The same goes with faith and fear. Well, my focus is on fear.
Now, fear is a tool used by the guy downstairs—the devil. It is used as a means to carry out the mandate of the devil. The devil according to Jesus in John 10:10 has a mandate, which is to kill, steal and destroy. And the guy it sends, is fear.
What we need to know is that fear is like a virus that needs to host. It cannot be effective unless it is inside a host. In other words, fear cannot have any effect on you unless you allow it to, unless you open the door and allow it to get in, like the pesky flies. So, the choice is totally up to you.
The devil can never force it's way into your life. The best it can do is to bring mirage or simulations around you. It is then left to you to open the door to let it into your house, or to leave it outside. Sounds so simple right?
Your house is your mind, and fear knocks on the door everyday. But remember, there is also Mr Faith who knocks on your door. One brings the truth, while the other brings lies. Mr Faith always bring the truth, while fear bring lies. The choice as I said is left to you.
One thing you must know and remember is that nothing, absolutely NOTHING can force itself into your life unless you allow it, unless you open the door to allow it to get in.
The Bible says in Proverbs 4:23 "Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life." AMPC. The Easy To Read version says, "Above all, be careful what you think because your thoughts control your life." ERV.
Who are you letting into your mind? If you allow fear into your life, it will torment you severely with lies that would appear real, while faith will release the truth of who Jesus is into your life, and guide you all the way.
Watch the movie: Spider-Man: Far from Home, then you'll understand what I'm talking, and know why I recommended the movie.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
