Topic: Get Rid Of Fear [Andrew Wommack Devotional 24 April 2019]

Luke 8:50, ‘But when Jesus heard it, he answered him saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.’

Matthew 9:23-31; Mark 5:35-43; Luke 8:49-56

Jesus told Jairus to ‘believe only,’ implying that faith and fear can operate in us at the same time. This is also the reason James tells us not to be double-minded, or to waiver (Jas. 1:5-8). Fear will negate faith. We can have both thoughts of faith and thoughts of unbelief at the same time.

Fear and faith are opposing forces. Fear is actually faith in reverse. Fear is believing something or someone other than God. Therefore, fear makes us subject to Satan and his death just as faith makes us recipients of all that God has to offer. This is the reason Jesus told Jairus, ‘Fear not.’ Jairus’ fear would have sealed his daughter’s death.
