God Will Help You Overcome Your Fears

By Diane Corriette
Aug 6, 2009
We all live through fears at one time or another in our life and using God as your main foundation in life is the only way to use Him to help you overcome those fears. Talking to God on a regular basis gives you an opportunity to share your problem with Him and surrender it into his hands, affirming he is in charge whenever you are tempted to think about it again.

There is nothing more wonderful than knowing that you can now hand over all your problems and allow God to help you in solving them and I remember handing the yoke (my worries) over to Jesus to carry. It provided me with an instant sense of relief which then made it easier for the problem to be solved. Because you have handed over the fear to God and are no longer worrying solutions present themselves and you will find that what was once a worry is now resolved, when this happens you will begin to rely on God on a regular basis.

That does not mean that God needs your help in sorting your fears and you must be careful not to hand it over and then begin to work towards fixing it yourself as if somehow you have to help God solve this for you. God does not need your assistance just your faith.

If you really feel you need to do something and you attend church ask people to pray for you. You can also speak to your Pastor along with people close to you who you trust, doing this will help to keep you feeling at peace. When speaking to friends and family let them know you do not need advice or you do not need to do anything because God is working on this problem for you.

Always remember to give Him thanks once your fear or problem no longer exists. It is important that you always give God the Glory for helping you in your life because we all loved to be thanked and the Father is no different. Whenever you can, spend time thanking and giving praise to God just for being in your life rather than always waiting until something is wrong because it is great to remember Him during the good times too. Get in the habit of including God in your life. As you do these things, it will be easier to trust in Him with your problems.

The most important thing is to continually pray and talk to God as the trusted Father that He is and remember you are talking to a friend not someone who will judge you. Be persistent and be open in the avenues that God may provide to you in solving your problem because the solution may not always make sense to you but you must give up thinking that you know the best way for God to answer your worry and allow Him to help you.
