FAITH VERSUS FEAR SEMINAR
One of the most debilitating and enslaving
emotions that Satan uses quite effectively in the lives
of believers is fear. In II Timothy 1:7, Paul says: "For
God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power,
and of love, and of a sound mind." This fear that
Satan incites in our hearts is nothing less than him
saying to us: "You can’t believe God and
what He says, you better take matters into your own
hands if you want this situation to work out in your
favor." Thus, by giving in to this fear and following
through with whatever action it is motivating us to
move toward in taking matters into our own hands, versus
trusting and obeying God in faith, we are actually
embracing Satan’s lie that God can’t be
trusted! The consequence of such an enslaving fear
is a constant uncertainty and insecurity. This in turn
results in frustration and anxiety, which lead to actions
that are contrived and carried out through one’s
own carnal reasoning that do not result in peace, but
rather in a continued cycle of fear, insecurity, frustration
and ill conceived actions all over again!
Can this cycle be broken and true freedom
found from this enslaving and debilitating fear? The
answer is yes, and that is what this Seminar is all
about. The following are the topics that will be discussed:
1. The Promise Given - II Timothy
1:7
2. The Nature of Fear - Satan’s Lie
3. The Most Oft Repeated Command in the Bible - "Do Not Fear"
4. The Nature of Faith - Hebrews 11:1
5. Biblical Examples of Faith Overcoming Fear
6. Rehearsing God’s Faithfulness - Psalm 37:3
7. Practical Steps Toward Recognizing and Overcoming Fear
This is a ten hour seminar, and if you
think it would be beneficial to your flock, it can
be taught on a weekend, or over a five or ten week
time period, meeting two hours or one hour a week for
five or ten weeks respectively. It will be a blessing
to work with your schedule in order to meet the need
of your congregation.
Janie and I would be honored to serve
you in any way we can. If you have any questions, please
do not hesitate to contact us, and may the Lord continue
to bless you in every way. Thanks for your consideration
of and prayers for us.
Sincerely in Christ,
Justin T. Alfred
