THAT IT HAPPENED BEFORE




Someone shared this story with me when I noticed she was afraid of taking the front seat in a bus. She said she was traveling to a camp program with one of her girl friends and they were seating on the front seat when the bus had an accident with another bus and this girl beside her died instantly and since then she became so afraid of taking any front seat, whether in a bus or saloon, whether she is tries seating on the front seat, the fear gets reignited and the whole event looks like happening again.
Like her many have set limitations to themselves because of a previous awry event that happened before; my former club captain stopped taking penalties because he missed a penalty kick during a crucial finals, and I became afraid of water bodies because somethings ago I almost got drowned.
Whatsoever be the reason why fear has been planted in us, its of the devil setting limitations in our spirit from enjoying the freedom and sound mind God has given to us.
2Ti 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
The way I conquered my hydrophobia was that I went back to that water body where I almost drowned and jumped into it, and as I swam through that spot where i almost drowned, I conquered that fear of water bodies till date. You just need to face that fear to be able conquer. If you’ve failed an exam woefully before or someone you think is better than you did and you are afraid of registering for that exam, then you’ve been placed under bondage of the devil.
Refuse that spirit of fear, the version of you that faced that horrible situation in the time past that has planted fear in you isn’t who you are now. Now, God is you conquering everything that has conquered you in time past, God is in you defeating the weapons the enemy has used to defeat you before. ‘...greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world’. 1John 4:4
That it happened before doesn’t mean it would happen again, rise up and conquer that fear.
God bless you
