Bible Question: Why is that I am never attainig my goals to do away with ear and doubt esp. when I am financaily down? |
Bible Answer: Well, at least you are in good company. Abraham in Genesis 12 dealt with fear, Lot was afraid (Genesis 19:30), Elijah in 1 Kings 19, and what about the disciples in Matthew 8:23-27. So you can see fear happens even to what I think most would call great men of God. Yet, we have to notice something else, fear doesn't come from God. 2 Timothy 1:7, makes this very clear. We are commended to follow Psalm 55:22. Most don't have a problem with casting them, yet we seem to want to pick them back up after they have been cast. If you are striving to overcome these within yourself, you can never do that on your own. Our works can't save us (Titus 3:4-7). Trying to keep this post a responsible thing, I will refer you to a website http://www.gotquestions.org/Bible-fear.html that have seen others reference on this forum which should give you a little more in depth information concerning fear.
