BEING HONEST WITH OURSELVES

Ephesians 6:13 --- Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

To face a fear you must trust the Holy Spirit to guide you. Instead of holding fear in your heart, you can exchange the fear for the armor of God. God provides you with armor because he knows you must wage war against the darkness at every turn. When you need courage, you are to pray deeply for the Lord’s almighty arm to give you strength and the ability to act despite your fears. Being honest with yourself often requires enormous courage. There are often many kinds of things about yourself you do not want to face or to admit. In this instance, Satan uses your fear against you. Being honest with yourself breaks you free of the bondage Satan puts on you. To face a fear you must try to have a rational idea as to what it is you fear. Then with a prayer in your heart reaching up to Christ, you must ask Christ to place a picture in your mind of what your life will be like after you overcome the enemy that makes you shake and tremble.
