Coming to Grips With Your Fear
Rexy Yancey
2 Timothy 1:6-8
John Hunter in his book ''Knowing God's Secrets'' writes, ''Medical science now recognizes that between 60% and 90% of our sicknesses are caused by such emotions as fear, sorrow, guilt, envy, resentment, and hatred.''
I do not know the source for such figures; but I would say that if it is true, we need to get a grip on what is gripping us.
As believers we need to learn how to deal with such emotions as fear, worry, depression, bitterness, anger, stress, loneliness, and guilt. We must learn to deal with our feelings.
The emotion I want to deal with in this message is fear. Clarence McCartney said, ''From the cradle to the grave, fear casts its baleful shadow.'' He also said, ''Fear is man's greatest adversary.''
2020 and COVID-1919 has cast a long shadow of fear on us all. We all have lost family and friends to this horrible virus. There is the fear of getting the disease, and fear of surviving it once we get it.
On April 13, 1970, three astronauts, Jim Lovell, Jack Swaggert, and Fred Hayes found themselves in a fearful situation. Apollo 13 was on its way to the moon when an oxygen tank exploded. One entire side of this spaceship was blown away.
What are you going through right now that is filling you with fear?
Ann Landers reported that she received 1`0,000 letters a week. She received more mail concerning fear than anything else.
When sin entered the Garden, fear entered with it. Adam and Eve hid from God because they were afraid.
During the depression fear gripped the lives of the populace. During the political upheaval that is going on in our country fear is gripping the hearts of people,
Julius Caesar led thousands into battle. He said that the cries of his enemies were like music in his ears. However, he was afraid of thunder.
Howard Hughes was afraid of germs. He used over four boxes of Kleenex every day.
Evil Knievel was not afraid to jump the grand Canyon ...
