2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. God reacts to faith like Satan reacts to fear. Fear can control you in direct proportion to the problems that come your way. Fear is the opposite of faith, and both are released by expecting something you can’t see. Faith comes from seeing the Word, but fear comes from seeing the problem. Faith is released by the words of your mouth, and fear is also released by the words of your mouth. Fear does not have a claim over you. Faith will be built up in your life as you remove fear from your spirit. Focus on the answer to the problem, rather than on the problem. When you quote Scripture you are resisting the enemy who is tempting you with a spirit of fear. The more Scripture you quote to the enemy, the more pain you inflict on him.
