Choosing Faith Instead Of Fear

Ref.: Matthew 9:29

Father God,


I know that fear and faith both want me to believe something I cannot see. Fear wants me to believe something negative, while faith wants me to believe something positive. Everything I fear and dread the most will happen to me if I choose to focus on them. But I do not want to act on fear, I want to act on faith, speaking Truth into my life. If I don't, then fear will try to dominate my thought life. Instead I choose to trust Truth and give thanks. I do not want to use my energy to worry. I will use my energy to believe. Because it takes the same amount of energy to believe as it does to worry. Even when it looks like its not working, I will stay in faith. Because I believe, I can see. And I choose to activate my faith, not my fear. I will not expect the worst, I expect Good. Father, I know I need to be careful who my friends are, because negativity is contagious. Seeing other peoples fears will make me afraid. I pray for friends who are upbeat, positive people. Help me to fill my mind with victory. Send faithful people into my life, because faith is also contagious. Help me to find people of faith, to hang out with. People who will encourage me and help me to get stronger and have more joy and peace in my life. Help me to remember that fear looks bigger than what it really is. Help me to remember the Truth, that there really is nothing to it. I do not want to give into fear. I cast down fear and I will take control of my thoughts. I will see the positive in every situation and not the negative. By staying focused on Now and knowing that Truth is in control, I can see things in a positive light.
AMEN
