A Letter to Fear By Joyce Meyer

Dear Fear,

I only refer to you as “dear” because of our long-term intimate relationship and certainly not because you are dear to me in any way. In fact, you've been a tormenting influence from start to finish. You have told me lies and prevented me from doing the things I wanted to do and should have done. You are indeed a miserable, wretched companion, and one that I am no longer willing to be involved with.

I'm writing you this letter to let you know that from this point forward, I will not fear. Although I may feel your presence, I will not bow down to your demands. I have a friend whose name is Jesus, and He has promised to never leave me nor forsake me, but to be with me always. He is indeed a powerful friend, and although you do have some power, His is by far much greater than yours. You can come against me, but Jesus lives in me, and the power of the One who is in me is greater than you are.

Now, although I cannot prevent you from coming to visit, I do want to give you notice that you will be ignored from now on. I'm far too busy now fellowshipping with my new friend Jesus and developing an intimate relationship with Him to give any of my time to you. The more time I spend with Jesus, the more courageous I become. He's teaching me a new way to live, one that's exciting and adventurous, one that is fearless.

I also want to inform you that since I have so much experience with you now and know how self-defeating it is to listen to you, I intend to tell as many people as I can what a thief and a liar you are. The years I have wasted with you will be redeemed, and I will bear much good fruit. Thank you, dear fear, for driving me to Jesus. You see, you made me so miserable that I sought a way to be free from you, and Jesus met me where I was and set me free.

Now, should you decide to waste your time and try to visit me even after my letter, I'm letting you know ahead of time that you will be met by faith in God and determination that I will not fear.

Sincerely and determined,

[Your Name]

How To Obtain Real Faith? A Powerful Teaching by Kathryn Kuhlman

 

Volumes have been written and spoken about faith, yet we understand so little about it. Each of us desires faith, but it's not something we can work up or carry around like a handkerchief. It's a gift from God, a fruit of the Spirit.

When will the world stop its foolish struggles and simply believe? If you've been trying to manufacture faith, just stop. Faith doesn't come from our mental and intellectual gymnastics; it must come from God.

We are capable of belief but incapable of exercising biblical faith. This is why many mistakenly think belief is faith. Belief is cold, intellectual, and mental. The devil believes, but that doesn't save him. We need to understand this clearly: belief and faith are not the same.

Faith is living, moving, operating, and sweeping away the enemy of our souls. You only need faith the size of a mustard seed if it's God's faith. If you sincerely want faith, He will impart it to you.

The Jericho Road without Jesus is just a road. With Jesus, it becomes a shining highway of salvation and healing. It takes the presence of Jesus to transform our lives.

The blind man didn't sit and say, “I believe I can see.” He cried out to Jesus for help. Jesus asked him, “What wilt thou that I should do unto thee?” The blind man wanted to see, and Jesus granted his request through faith.

Where did the blind man get this faith? Jesus gave it to him. Just like a watch given as a gift, the faith belonged to Jesus before He imparted it to the blind man.

Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. It's His matchless grace and love. We are like tiny seeds that can grow into something noble and beautiful for God.

Once, a tiny acorn shed its overcoat and grew through the winter with Mother Nature's care. But a man placed a heavy rock over it, hindering its growth. The little tree didn't struggle to move the rock; it simply grew until one day the rock was lifted.

You and I are like that little seed. We can grow through the challenges of life. The power of faith can be manifested in us until men and angels wonder.

When the battle is over and victory is won, don't boast of your own accomplishments. Kneel at Jesus' feet and say, “Is it not wonderful that His grace and faith should be manifested in me?”

Beloved, I have no faith of my own. It's not something I can manufacture or send to you. Faith is a gift from God. It comes from Him and is a gift He gives to you and me.

Open Heaven & Breakthrough

Breakthroughs have timing; you may not know the hour sometimes, but you can discern the season. A pregnant woman, for example, can't believe for her baby's delivery breakthrough before the 9th month, or she will be delusional and may tap into hurt on all levels. No matter how hard her pregnancy is or how anticipating, she can't skip the growth and the process of her most precious child.

“Do I bring to the moment of birth and not give delivery?” says the Lord. “Do I close up the womb when I bring to delivery?” says your God.” Isaiah 66:9.

It is the same God who gives you strength to be productive and the SAME GOD who gives you pushing power. God wants to complete the cycle of your blessing; he is for you! No pregnant woman knows the day or the hour of her delivery, but she knows the season and lives all around that breakthrough moment she is awaiting and laboring for a long time.

“Ask the Lord for rain in the springtime; it is the Lord who sends the thunderstorms. He gives showers of rain to all people, and plants of the field to everyone.” Zechariah 10:1.

Ask for rain in the time of rain! You can't ask for rain when it is not the right time for an outpouring. Whatever this outpouring you are waiting for, a breakthrough in your business, finances, relationships, health, ministry, etc., God will reveal to you the season of your breakthrough. I know that because he wants you to be aware and alert so you won't miss the day of your visitation and have everything go in vain. He wants you to be fruitful; he is your helper, comforter, guide, and strength.

“Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, saying, ‘If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation.'” Luke 19: 41-44.

The Lord is so good; he will always announce your breakthrough season. The pregnant woman shows signs of a mature pregnancy and approaching delivery: Lightening, braxton hicks contractions, cervical changes, bloody show, nesting instinct, increased vaginal discharge, water breaking, stronger, more regular contractions, backache, loss of mucus plug, dilation of the cervix.

You can't ignore those expressions and signs unless you are spiritually numb, depressed, or prayerless. I am talking here of course about your spiritual signs for your breakthrough. Has the Lord shown you signs that it is your season of breakthrough and delivery? Ask him, position yourself, and prepare because joy comes in the morning.

It's your moment of great breakthrough and it is NOW in Jesus' name. Amen! I know for myself it is my time; the Lord has been speaking to me A LOT about it. The blessings of the Lord shall transform me from one state to another, elevate me from pit to palace, from hiddenness to glory, and at that time, I will have to reveal to you it is me because you won't recognize me because the Lord has done great and magnificent deeds for me.
