Combatting Fear with Prayer
...The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].
—James 5:16
Fear attacks everyone. It is Satan's way of tormenting us and preventing us from going forward so we cannot enjoy the life Jesus died to give us.
Fears are not realities, they are False Evidence Appearing Real. But if we accept the fears that Satan offers and give voice to them, we open the door for the enemy and close the door to God.
Faith is released through prayer, which makes tremendous power available, dynamic in its working.
Satan seeks to weaken us through fear, but God strengthens us as we fellowship with Him in prayer. The Bible teaches us to watch and pray. (Matthew 26:41.) I believe the major reference in this passage is to watching ourselves and the attacks that the enemy launches against our minds and emotions. When these attacks are detected, we should pray immediately. We may think the attack will go away but we must remember that it is when we pray that power is released against the enemy—not when we think about praying later.
Pray about everything and fear nothing. I believe you will find this decision to be one that will produce more joy and peace for your everyday living.
When fear knocks at the door, let faith answer. -
Even Christ was extremely sorrowful b4 his cruxificion (fear?), the only thing that can make him feel better is by having faith in GOD and pray.

do u sense the spirit of fear , distrust , and many more around us especially in the last days as now? I sense it everywhere. I suppose we should pray over it but my spirit is willing but my flesh is weak . I am lacking in my prayer life.
Prayer needed: For all Christains to wake up and pray
Forgive us Jesus... -
