More on fear.

" What is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You take care of him? You have made him a little lower than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, and set him over the works of Your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet. "

For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left NOTHING THAT IS NOT PUT UNDER HIM. But now we do not yet see all things put under him.......Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is the devil, and release those WHO THROUGH FEAR OF DEATH WERE ALL THEIR LIFETIME SUBJECT TO BONDAGE. For indeed He does not give aid to angels but He does give aid to the seed of Abraham. - Hebrews 26+-


I really like how the amplified bible tells verse 14 and 15.... that by (going through) death He might bring to NOUGHT AND MAKE OF NO EFFECT him who had the power of death- that is, the devil. And also that He might DELIVER AND COMPLETELY SET FREE all those who through the (haunting) fear of death were held in bondage throughout the whole course of their lives.

Dear Fear

I hate you!!! I realize now you are not some simple emotion.

You come and you threaten all that I believe in.

I hate you. I have overcome you. You must get behind me. You are underneath me.

You can go now.

Did I mention I hate you?
