This week on the podcast we take a moment to think a little more deeply through the process of uprooting our fears. As I mentioned in the previous post, the challenge with fear is that it can masquerade itself so well in the under layers of our hearts. Fear can become a deep mover of our worldview and our goals that we take it as a normal way to live.
The joy and power of the gospel comes at us in this specific challenge. It unmasks the foundation of fear as our inherent weakness and guilt as sinners. We respond in fear because, deep down we know that we have failed and that we can’t make ourselves right. The justifying power of the blood of Jesus comes to erase this guilt at its root. It washes us clean and brings us into the family of God as though we have never sinned. And it gives us a sure daily foundation to continue the task of uprooting false fears in our life and walk in joyful courage with our King.
