DOUBT AND FEAR

By Adenuga Sunday Joseph


Doubt and fear are twin brothers that hinder people from flowing in the realm of the supernatural. If you are a Bible Scholar, you will notice that each time the lord or an angel appear to a saint, the first word spoken is always “fear not”. To walk with God, you have to learn how to fear not Luke 1:11-13


”And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the alter of incense. And when Zechariah saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him. But the angel said unto him, fear not …”

‘Fear not’ is almost always the first statement from God when He begins to make a personal contact with you at the level of the supernatural. It happened to Mary the same way. Luke1: 26-30.

“And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God …to a virgin… Mary.And the angel said unto her, fear not, Mary: for thou has found favor with God.”

Even when He appeared to Cornelius, he was afraid and the angel had to calm him down by telling him that God had noticed his prayers and ways of life. If you too want to begin to flow in the realm of the supernatural; you must ‘fear not’, whatever the experience. If it is pleased the Lord to visit you through an angel, you must not fear. Another thing is doubt. Somebody said that doubt is the thief of God’s greater blessing. When you receive precious promises from God, believe and do not doubt. Heb. 10:35-36 reads

“Cast not away therefore your confidence which hath great recompense of reward. For ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.”

Faith is a powerful tool; it will help you in your in the realm of supernatural. Faith in God moves mountain while doubt makes you sink deep into the sea. Cast not your confidence, which you have, in His word and in His promises for your future, hold fast unto the word of His promise. It is very important for you to note these hindrances to the flow, you must be determined, and never to allow any hindrance make you forfeit the benefit of flowing in the supernatural. I therefore urge you to hinder the hindrances and you shall really excel in the realm of the miraculous
