[pull_quote_center]”Then even the bravest soldiers, though they have the heart of a lion, will be paralyzed with fear. For all Israel knows what a mighty warrior your father is and how courageous his men are.” – 2 Samuel 17:10 NLT[/pull_quote_center]
To be paralyzed is to be incapable of movement. It also means to be unable to think or act normally.
Can you see how dangerous fear is? There are so many people with fantastic visions and ideas who are doing nothing because of fear. Some started, then because of a little challenge, they quit and ran back to their comfort zones: they have been paralyzed by fear.
The righteous is as bold as a lion! Success is for the courageous! Listen, if you will ever experience the joy of making tangible achievements in your lifetime you must conquer fear. God did not give us the spirit of fear. So we have no business being afraid! You were in the captivity of fear all along, but today you will get up and march out in faith. Walk on water, Jesus is there to make sure you don’t sink! He is able to keep you from falling. You won’t fail; all that you need to succeed is available; even though there are challenges, have faith, for faith is the victory that overcomes the world! Hallelujah!
