Notes:

Terrorism, the plan to use terror as a weapon. If there is no weapon it has not effect. We are in the place of the most high God.
The unreborn human spirit, what Adam became when he sinned, death came on him, and we have that death. Death, naturaly is the ceasing of life in a body. That is not spiritual death. Your body cannot live without your spirit but your spirit can live without your body. Spiritual death came on Adam when he sinned. Before that he had the fruit of the spirit working in him. All that made God God, was inside him. He was exactly like God. Spirtual death made love become hate, faith became fear, temperance became lust. Spiritual death is disconnection from God. That death made a fountain of fear instead of faith in the body. Fear is peverted faith. Fear of a dangerous animal is faith in the animal to hurt you.

The differenct between God and man, God is soverign, and has no spiritual head, man is created in His image and must have a spiritual overlord. If you are not under God, you are under Satan. We needed to cover this so we can have some basic agreement of what the Word says.

Any man in Christ is a new creature. Adam was not born, he was created. When you were born again, you were created, in Christ Jesus. What happened in your spirit being?

You died. Adam was the first person to ever be born again, but it was in the wrong way, he was born to death and put in a place he was not designed to be in. When we get born again it is from death to light. Sin came in the world, and death by sin. Righeousness came in the world (and you when you became born again) when Jesus came in the world. You died the death of the cross. All the fear and garbarge left when you died. You have a fountain of faith inside you.

Reverance is not properly translated in the Bible as fear. It ought to be a holy reverence. We are not afraid of God, we have a reverence of Him. The only way that fear can enter into you is to be fed into you. Love will flush it out of you.

Fear will contaiminate faith. If you have unforgiveness, you have fear (lack of power, or of what they are going to do if you forgive). Fear will kill out the faith in you. Job had fear. The things that he feared came upon him. He said they may have sinned. He was in fear of his children sinning, and he got him killed. God is not responsible for you not knowing any better. Instead of contious sacrafices wiping out his previous prayer, he should have said they are covered, and let it be. Do you get mad at the motor car company when the light goes off in your car and you ignore it, and then it stops on the freeway. NO, you get it fixed ASAP. So why, when the fear comes, don't you stop immediately and fix it. If you are developed in fear you are not developed in love. It is time to pay attention to that light blinking and get the fear out of your life. Get to the place where there is no fear. We do not need to manage fear, we need to cast it out.

(Luk 8:49) While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's [house], saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
(Luk 8:50) But when Jesus heard [it], he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.

What did Jesus say? He said not to fear! That is a very strong statement to make. And then he said SHE WILL! That was a firm statement.Have things changed, did fear gain over Jesus in the past 2000 years.

(Luk 1:67) And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
(Luk 1:68) Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
(Luk 1:69) And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;

(Luk 1:70) As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:

Things have been established from the begining of the world, what things?

(Luk 1:71) That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
We are saved from our enemies, those who hate us...

(Luk 1:72) To perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
(Luk 1:73) The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
(Luk 1:74) That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
(Luk 1:75) In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

We have had Jesus go to the cross so that we can go through life without fear. There is no reason for us to live in fear.

A person who walks by faith, we are walking towards our victory, and it is inevitable. As long as we walk in faith, we have the victory. What if... is enough to kick in the fear and start failure, leading to disater.
