Podcasts about fear of man

In Proverbs twenty-nine twenty five we find words that speak volumes of truth which we need to hear in our social media-saturated world. “The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.” All of us struggle at times with making a good impression while wondering what other people think about us. This, according to Proverbs, is a snare, as it can become an obsession, trapping us into the vicious and spiritually deadly whirlpool of making every effort to seek man's approval, rather than living to the glory of God. Tim Keller says that “if we look to human beings more than to God for our worth and value, we will be trapped by anxiety, an over-need to please, by the inability to withdraw from exploitive relationships, by the inability to take criticism, and by a cowardice that makes us unable to confront others.” As Christians, we must push back on our bent towards fear of man, as we learn to live to God's glory alone. And, we need to lead our kids to do the same.

In this powerful conversation originally recorded for Lecrae's podcast, The Deep End, ******Francis Chan joins Lecrae for an honest and deeply personal dialogue about insecurity, identity, and the love of God that casts out fear. Together they explore the fear of man that grips so many leaders today, the dangers of living for approval, and how the revelation of God's love transforms everything. Francis opens up about his own journey from striving and performance to living securely as God's beloved - the same message that inspired his new book, Beloved.

Acts 12:1-24. Herod's hunger for approval led him to persecute the church, but God set Peter free and kept His mission unstoppable. True freedom comes when we fear God more than people and live for His approval, not the crowd's.

Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” 6 So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?”

An episode from Bible Believers Baptist Church (BBBC), a conservative, independent body of King James Bible believers located in Corpus Christi, Texas. Bible Believers Baptist Church's statement of Faith:A Bible Baptist is one who believes in a supernatural Bible, which tells of a supernatural Christ, Who had a supernatural birth, Who spoke supernatural words, Who performed supernatural miracles, Who lived a supernatural life, Who died a supernatural death, Who rose in supernatural splendor, and Who will one day return in supernatural glory to establish a supernatural kingdom on earth. What BBBC believes about Creation: “We believe in the Genesis account of creation, and that it is to be accepted literally, and not allegorically or figuratively; that man was created directly in God's own image and after His own likeness; that man's creation was not a matter of evolution or evolutionary change of species or development through interminable periods of time from lower to higher forms; and that all animal and vegetable life was made directly and God's established law was that they should bring forth only “after their kind.”What BBBC believes about Salvation: “We believe in God's electing grace; that the blessings of salvation are made free to all by the gospel; that it is the immediate duty of all to accept them by a cordial, penitent and an obedient faith; and nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner on earth but his own inherent depravity and voluntary rejection of the gospel; which rejection involves him in an aggravated condemnation.  We believe in salvation by grace through faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on Calvary plus nothing.  Therefore, we do not believe that works are necessary for salvation, although once a person is saved, he should be careful to maintain good works.”What BBBC believes about Repentance and Faith: “We believe that Repentance and Faith are solemn obligations, and also inseparable graces, wrought in our souls by the quickening Spirit of God, thereby; being deeply convicted of our guilt, danger, helplessness, and of the way of salvation by Christ, we turn to God with unfeigned contrition, confession, and supplication for mercy; at the same time heartily receiving the Lord Jesus Christ and openly confessing Him as our only and all-sufficient Savior.” A message from BBBC to you: “If you are looking for a church in the Corpus Christi Texas area that preaches the Truth from God's Word, reach out to us at any time.

Pastor Jenae Acevedo explains that fearing God is reverential awe, not terror, contrasting it with the fear of man that leads to people-pleasing and compromise. Drawing from Matthew 10:28 and her experience after reading John Bevere's The Awe of God, she calls us to prioritize God's will over human approval.

Freedom from The Fear of Man | Nathan Herndon by ProvidenceCommunityChurch

Is there a cure for the fear of man?

What is a fear of man? How does it affect us?

Welcome to Week 5 of our Hidden Gems series at Citizen Church! This week, Pastor Dustin brings a powerful and practical message titled "Fear of God vs. Fear of Man" — a word that speaks to all of us, no matter our age or season of life. We all wrestle with fear. But there's one fear the Bible warns can trap us more than any other — the fear of man. It can rob us of boldness, delay our obedience, and cause us to live for approval instead of purpose. The good news? The fear of the Lord is not fear as the world knows it — it's awe, reverence, and alignment with God… and it leads to life and freedom. Key Scriptures: Proverbs 29:25 | Proverbs 19:23 | Psalm 112:1,7 | Psalm 118:6 | Galatians 1:10 | 1 Samuel 15:24 | Proverbs 14:27 In this message, you'll learn: – How the fear of man traps us into people-pleasing and passivity – Why the fear of God brings peace, perspective, and power – What this tension looks like across different life stages — from teens to senior saints – How to trade insecurity for security by listening to God's voice above all others “The fear of man is living your life in response to people… instead of obedience to God.” “Every time fear wins, something God planned for you gets delayed.” Final Thought / Weekly Challenge: This week, take time to reflect: What has the fear of man kept you from doing that God is calling you to do? Ask God for courage to obey, even when it's uncomfortable — and trust that fearing Him leads to freedom, not bondage. Let this be the week you choose purpose over popularity, truth over approval, and His voice over every other.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Mark & Holly Roth from Burnsville, MN. Thank you for standing with us throughout Project 23. Your support is helping others encounter Jesus, not just in theory, but in truth. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 11:31-33: And they discussed it with one another, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,' he will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?' But shall we say, ‘From man'?”—they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John really was a prophet. So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.” And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.” — Mark 11:31-33 The religious leaders are finally cornered. Jesus asked them a question about John the Baptist, and they knew whichever way they answered, it would cost them. So they evade with the response, “We don't know.” But they do know. They've just chosen not to answer, because the truth would force a change they're unwilling to make. They feared the people. They feared losing influence. They feared what complete honesty would require of them. So they play it safe. They answer with a non-answer. And Jesus refuses to answer their original question, just like they evade his. Sometimes the real problem isn't that we don't know what's true, it's that we don't want to deal with the consequences of accepting the known truth. So we pretend we're unsure. So we stall. So we delay obedience. Which in the end is disobedience. But deep down most of the time, we already know the answer. You know that habit has to go. You know that relationship isn't healthy. You know the forgiveness needs to be extended. You know Jesus is calling you to surrender something. Stop playing games with God. Stop saying “I don't know” when the truth is right before you. Remember, the truth is a gift. But it only changes you when you receive it from God, accept it into your heart, soul, and mind, and apply it to your life. #ActOnTruth, #Mark11, #ObedientFaith ASK THIS: Why did the religious leaders say “We don't know” when they did? What does fear of people often prevent us from doing? Where have you delayed obedience, claiming uncertainty? What would it look like to step into truth without hesitation? DO THIS: Name one thing God has already made clear to you, but you've been putting off. Then take one action step today toward obedience. PRAY THIS: Lord, I don't want to pretend I don't know what you're asking. Give me the courage to act on the truth I've already received. Amen. PLAY THIS: "From The Inside Out."

Surely one of the great idols of the human heart is the fear of man. We often care inordinately what other people think about us. How can this idol be identified and how do we begin to conquer it by God's grace? You can watch this message here.

In this powerful message, Pastor Brandon walks us through the concept of "fear of man" and the importance of shifting our focus from fearing people to fearing God, so we can be empowered to live authentic and courageous lives.

This sermon from the book of Proverbs was preached on June 22, 2025 by J.P. Stokes as part of the sermon series "The Way of Wisdom."

How can we know when we've begun to fear man instead of trusting God? In this episode, Scott and Josh discuss ways to identify the fear of man in our own hearts. The Words of Grace Podcast seeks to clarify, amplify, and apply the Sunday morning sermon at Grace Community Church. From time to time we will address other topics. We hope these podcasts help impress the Word of God into your everyday life. Episodes are hosted by Josh Hussung and Scott Patty.

What is faith? Faith is overcoming the fear of man! You cannot live in faith while at the same time live in fear. You will either fear man or fear God but not both. In this study, we will look at how the parents of Moses overcome the fear of man and it resulted not only in the salvation of their son but a nation!If you got saved watching the broadcast today, need prayer, would like to connect with us, or you would like to give into this ministry please visit here:https://www.gospeltabernaclechurch.com/connect/
