In part 2 of ‘Faith Over Fear’ Michelle discusses confronting and overcoming fear through faith in Christ. She looks at not giving in to fear, not fuelling fear but facing it, and using our authority in Christ to deal with a spirit of fear.

She emphasizes the power believers have through Jesus to combat fearful thoughts and resist fear and anxiety, likening fear to a powerless enemy that can be defeated by standing firm in God's Word. Biblical scriptures such as Philippians 4:6-7, Isaiah 41:10, Psalm 91 and 1 Peter 5:7 are highlighted to emphasize the importance of going to God’s Word for strength, peace and power, and show how much God cares for our wellbeing.

Practical methods are suggested to guard the heart and mind and cleanse the mind of unwanted images, including visualizing the cleansing blood of Jesus and speaking affirmations. The episode concludes with a powerful prayer and confession to repel fear and embrace God's protective and empowering presence.

In this episode of The Christian Wellbeing Show, host Michelle is joined by co-host Stuart as they delve into themes of fear, hope, and eschatology within the modern Christian context, asking the pertinent question: Is the world coming to an end?

The discussion covers the origins and evolution of end-of-the-world, ‘dispensational’ teaching, highlighting key figures like Lacunza, Irving, Darby, and the Scofield Reference Bible, and its profound influence on modern Christian thought and US politics, including the significance of the modern state of Israel.

In the midst of the challenges and increasing dystopia in evidence today, we can have hope and proactive faith for the future, with Christians encouraged to stand out, speak up, and shine brightly in a world fraught with darkness. The Church is destined to be victorious as God’s kingdom continues to advance on earth before King Jesus returns.
