    Fear holds us back, keeps us up at night, and convinces us that we're alone. But here's the truth: Fear is a liar.

    In this episode of Behind The Mike Podcast, Mike Stone breaks down Isaiah 41:10, one of the most powerful promises in the Bible, and shows how God's presence, strength, and help can completely destroy fear. If you've ever struggled with anxiety, discouragement, or feeling overwhelmed, this message is for you.

    🔹 Key Takeaways:
    ✅ Why fear thrives in isolation and how to defeat it
    ✅ How God's presence is the antidote to fear
    ✅ The biblical secret to finding peace in life’s storms
    ✅ What it means to be upheld by God's righteous right hand

    📖 Scripture Focus: Isaiah 41:10
    "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
