  16. DISCUSS What might you decide or do, that you don’t now, of you were suddenly completely without fear? Are the areas of your life where you have more faith in your fears than you do in your possibilities?

  17. “Fear is a bird that believes itself into extinction.” — Jewel

  18. “We can’t attack those people; they are stronger than we are…. All the people we saw there are of great size… We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes and we looked the same to them.” — Exodus 13:31-33

  19. “Whom have you so dreaded and feared that you have been false to me?” - Isaiah 57:11

  20. “Do not be terrified by them, or I will terrify you before them?” - Jeremiah 1:17

  21. Fear is a choice.

  22. “This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live” - God (Deut 30:19)

  23. Fear is not a lack of faith. Fear is faith. Have you ever wondered why we are so certain of our fears?

  24. Fear is faith. It’s just faith in the dark being more powerful than the light. Faith in bad things happening being more likely than good things.

  25. DISCUSS Can you see times when you speak your fears into being? Are there times when you bring fear to a situation rather than faith? What can you do to change this? What’s one step you can take?

  26. “…he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy the devil and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death” - Hebrews 2:14-18

  27. “Do not fear what they fear and do not dread it” • Isaiah 43:1 • “Do not fear, for I am with you” • Isaiah 41:10 • “Do not fear, I will help you” • Isaiah 41:13 • “Do not fear the reproach of mere mortals • or be terrified by their insults” • Isaiah 51:7 • “Do not fear, for I am with you” • Isaiah 41:10

  28. “This is what I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt. And my Spirit remains among you. Do not fear.” Haggai 2:5 “Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked” Proverbs 3:25 “…even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.” 1 Peter 3:14 “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.” 1 John 4:18

  29. “I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” - Luke 10:18-20

  30. DISCUSS What might you have been given power over, but your fears are keeping you away from? What skill do you possess that society needs, that you’re not expressing as freely as you could because of other concerns?

  31. Fear is a kind of faith. Fear of God keeps us humble. Fear of death/loss/pain paralyses us.

  32. Fear of God = honest appraisal of who he is & who we are Fear of death/fear of man = underestimates God, underestimates the kingdom of light overestimates humanity, overestimates darkness.

  33. We are to fear God and have an honest appraisal of ourselves. Faith gives us boldness. Fear of God gives us humility.

  34. FEAR ISN’T THE ISSUE. WHAT WE FEAR IS THE ISSUE.

  35. “ROLL AWAY YOUR STONE” – MUMFORD & SOSN ROLL AWAY YOUR STONE AND I’LL ROLL AWAY MINE TOGETHER WE CAN SEE WHAT WE WILL FIND DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE AT THIS TIME FOR I’M AFRAID OF WHAT I WILL DISCOVER INSIDE ‘CAUSE YOU TOLD ME THAT I WOULD FIND A HOLE WITHIN THE FRAGILE SUBSTANCE OF MY SOUL AND I HAVE FILLED THIS VOID WITH THINGS UNREAL AND ALL THE WHILE MY CHARACTER IT STEALS

  36. “ROLL AWAY YOUR STONE” – MUMFORD & SOSN DARKNESS IS A HARSH TERM DON’T YOU THINK? AND YET IT DOMINATES THE THINGS I SEE IT SEEMS THAT ALL MY BRIDGES HAVE BEEN BURNT BUT YOU SAY, “ THAT’S EXACTLY HOW THIS GRACE THING WORKS” IT’S NOT THE LONG WALK HOME THAT WILL CHANGE THIS HEART BUT THE WELCOME I RECEIVE WITH THE RESTART

  37. “ROLL AWAY YOUR STONE” – MUMFORD & SOSN DARKNESS IS A HARSH TERM DON’T YOU THINK? AND YET IT DOMINATES THE THINGS I SEE STARS HIDE YOUR FIRES THESE HERE ARE MY DESIRES AND I WILL GIVE THEM UP TO YOU THIS TIME AROUND AND SO I’LL BE FOUND WITH MY STAKE STUCK IN THIS GROUND MARKING THE TERRITORY OF THIS NEWLY IMPASSIONED SOUL

  38. “ROLL AWAY YOUR STONE” – MUMFORD & SOSN BUT YOU YOU’VE GONE TOO FAR THIS TIME YOU HAVE NEITHER REASON NOR RHYME WITH WHICH TO TAKE THIS SOUL THAT IS SO RIGHTFULLY MINE
