Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Be sure to do the following in prayer to God: Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. *** 2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power and of love, and of a sound mind. *** Hebrews 13:5-6 Let your conversation (manner of life) be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for HE (God) hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. 6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. *** Luke 12:4 Jesus said: And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. 5 But I will forewarn you WHOM ye shall fear: Fear HIM (God), which after HE hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear HIM. *** Psalm 111:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do HIS commandments: HIS praise endureth for ever. *** Luke 12:1-3 Jesus says: Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. 2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. 3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. *** Matthew 12 Jesus says: 33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. 34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. 36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. *** Matthew 11 Jesus says: 28 Come unto ME all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of ME; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For MY yoke is easy, and MY burden is light. *** Matthew 7 Jesus says: 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. *** Matthew 6 (Jesus says) 19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! 24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. 25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. *** James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given HIM. *** (Take the scriptures which God brings to your mind and record them for yourselves and listen to them at night to build your faith in God and to be able to do those scriptures in your life.) Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Note: Nicole is taking August off, so we're re-sharing one of her most popular series from the year - The Secrets of the Good Life. This is the third week in the series - be sure to go back and listen to the first two episodes! Have you ever wondered how your fear overlaps with other people's fears? I think we'd find we are far more fearful that we realize. There is healthy fear, and unhealthy fear. One of the roles of Christianity is a new way to understand what fear is and how God helps us be confident even in the most trying circumstances. Today, we're going to look at what God has given us to fight the fear in our lives. In a 2022 survey of Americans, almost 9 out of 10 reported daily anxiety about inflation, with over 60% reporting daily anxiety over everything from health to relationships to global events. Our recent history as a culture is full of trials that tempt us toward fear, whether it presents itself as a low rumble of worry always operating in the background of our mind, or a crippling anxiety that controls our every decision. When it comes to fear, the Bible has good news and bad news for us. First, the bad news: fear is as present a reality today as it was when the Bible was written, and there is no promise that circumstances will improve in a way that would give us reason not to fear. But the good news? What God promises us is not deliverance from fearful circumstances, but deliverance from a fearful heart. In Genesis 50, Joseph's first words for his brothers were “do not be afraid.” The good news Joseph gave to his brothers pales in comparison to the good news we find in Jesus, who repeatedly affirms that we do not need to be afraid. In Christ, we can live in uncertainty and still have peace. (For the 19-30% of Americans with an anxiety disorder, simply “trusting God” is not the answer to a complicated illness. If your anxiety interferes with your ability to lead a normal life, there are treatments that can help alongside of your spiritual practices). The secret of the good life is NOT that suffering won't happen, but that we can be different people, people without fear, because of Christ. Verses This Week: John 14: 26-27: But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. Deuteronomy 31:6-8: Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” Then Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the presence of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you must go with this people into the land that the Lord swore to their ancestors to give them, and you must divide it among them as their inheritance. The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” Hebrews 13:5-7: Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?” Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. Practical Steps to Fight Fear: Watch out for what clutters your life. What we fear is often what we think we need to live in peace. Good things become ultimate things, Tim Keller says. When these good things become idols, we fear losing them so much we create anxiety around them. Practice contentment. This is like changing the channel in your brain and choosing to focus on what God has given you and his promises to you. Look for role models. Being in local community is so important for this reason. You need real, in the flesh human beings, who are role models for what it looks like to live out the Christian life.Remember: healthy fear is an instructor; unhealthy fear is a taskmaster.

In this episode, we explore a powerful approach to dealing with fear: facing it head-on. Instead of running from fear, what if we turned around to acknowledge its presence and ask, "What does it mean?"
Ok, so you're ready to be available to God. You know His way his better. You tell him that you're open, and then he starts moving you in a direction that does not make sense. Maybe he's asking you to do something that seems way out of your financial means. Maybe he's moving you in a job or a business that you do not feel equipped for. Maybe he has put a burden on your heart and you don't know why. Maybe you feel like he's taking you in a totally different direction than your degree or even a passion you initially felt.Enter Joshua. Joshua was a skilled military leader, but that's not why God used him in such mighty ways. Joshua was also fully surrendered to the Lord, even when the directions didn't make sense.As a podcast listener, for this week only, you can still get the pre-order price of the Fight Fear with Faith Bible Study Bundle!

Do you ever feel like there are sins in your past that may stop God from being able to use you. Do you feel shame or like it's “too much” to be redeemed. Stepping into a place of Bible teaching, Satan has thrown those lies at me often. Maybe this is why I love the story of Rahab so much. While Rahab was still a prostitute, God started preparing her heart and the circumstances around her to be used in a mighty mighty way. She's even mentioned in James as one who was counted righteous because of her actions. I mean, out of all the people the brother of Jesus could've named…God shows up in so many ways in Rahab's story:1. The location of her home2. The direction of the spies3. Her occupation as a distractor4. The season5. Her softened heart towards GodAnd what God does through her is incredible!
