Do It Afraid

DAY 2 OF 4

Don’t Let Fear Stop You

I mistakenly thought that as long as I felt fear, I could not do what I wanted to do or felt I should do. I was wasting my life waiting for fear to go away. I prayed diligently for God to take away the fear, but my prayer never got answered because I was praying for the wrong thing. I should have been praying for God to give me the courage to go forward in the presence of fear and not let it stop me. 

You see, as long as Satan can stop you with fear, he will. But if you confront it, eventually even the feelings of fear will go away—at least they will in the area in which you confront them. You will need to confront new areas of fear as they come up throughout your life, but never forget that the only way to live free from fear is to confront it, or “do it afraid.”

Anything God asks you to do, you can do even if you have to do it afraid, knowing that He is always with you. Even things that you simply want to do, as long as they are within the guidelines of God’s will found in His Word, you should be able to without allowing fear to stop you.
