Freedom from Fear
Fear is the Christian’s most dangerous enemy. Hebrews 2:15 says that Jesus delivered us from a lifetime of bondage to fear, but as a Christian you probably know that fear still creeps in at times. Jesus understood that fear was a very real threat to faith; and that is why He wants to set us free from it.
Meditations on Strength and Courage
Sixty-three times in the Bible, it says “Fear not.” God told Joshua five times to be strong and courageous. Why? Because he must have needed to hear it! And to Joshua’s credit, he believed it, and he took the promised land in less than seven years. It’s time to overcome unhealthy fears and become strong and courageous!
Q&A: Fasting and Prayer
Over the years, I've had people ask me questions about the topics of prayer and fasting. I have compiled a few of those questions and answered them in this post. I hope that you will find the answers informative and that they will encourage you in your prayer walk.
Fasting and Prayer
I believe that the two subjects of fasting and prayer go together. People who have never fasted may not know what is involved; and fasting usually sounds like drudgery and difficulty. I used to associate fasting with long, long periods of time; yet a fast can be as short as one meal and still allow God to do some wonderful things in your life.

Sometimes, if God seems far off, if you don't feel like your prayers are being heard, or if you don't know where to go when you're stuck in the "wilderness," it is difficult to know how to pray. That's why the tabernacle is so important! It gives us a pattern, a way to approach God with confidence.
