Memory Verses: Week 5

I believe that Satan doesn’t want us in God’s word and will use any and every means possible to keep us from the truth and therefore we must be prepared and have a PLAN!

To work on hiding God's word in our hearts, 

this year I'm going to be posting a memory verse for each week
 along with a printable to print out and hang up. 

Here's the verse for week 5:

I don't know about you but I so struggle with fear. 

Sometimes it seems like fear is constantly stalking me, trying to take over my mind and my heart. 

If I am honest, fear boils down to my desire to control the outcome of a situation.

This type of fear that is mentioned in 2 Timothy 1:7 

is the kind of fear that hinders what God has given us: 

His power, love, and sound mind. 

This kind of fear is NOT of God, it is from Satan. 

I think fear is one of the biggest tools Satan uses against us. 

He tells us that we are no good, not worthy, unloved, useless, and terrible. 

These thoughts affect us in all areas of our life

and cause us to forget the truth. 

So how can we combat this type of fear? 

By believing the truth of this verse. 

Be memorizing it and meditating on it when we are fearful. 

By reminding ourselves over and over and over again that 

He has given us power, love, and self control 

and that we don't have to do anything in our own strength, but in HIS.
