Is there a way out of fear & cowardice?

I was sitting around posting to my blog when Outlook popped up and reminded me that it was time to speak the Word. This afternoon I started speaking from Bear’s Prayers at Joshua chapter 1 and considering the fearful times we live in I considered it highly appropriate to share with you what I am affirming for myself and what I highly recommend you affirm for yourself:

>>>>>5 No man is able to withstand or turn me away all the days of my life. As Jahuwah was with Moshè, so He is with me; He has not abandoned me or let me down. 6 I am strong, confident, hardened, emboldened, earnest, fearless, and courageous. I am constant set in my purpose and prove myself higher in quality, for I cause Jahshuwah’s compatriots or country-men to take possession of the ends of the earth which Jahuwah swore to my fathers to give them. 7 I am strong and exceedingly courageous; I keep, guard, observe, and give heed according to all the Torah which Moshè Jahuwah’s servant commanded me. I turn not from it to the right hand or to the left; neither do I abolish or reject it, and I prosper wherever I go. 8 Jahuwah’s Word does not depart out of my mouth; I put forth, speak, sing, study and ponder it day and night; I observe and do according to all that is written in it. My essential properties and attributes are prosperity and success. I deal wisely and have good success. 9 Jahuwah has commanded me to be strong, vigorous, and very courageous! I am not afraid neither am I dismayed, for Jahuwah my Mighty Creator is with me wherever I go.

When I came to verse 9 where it says, “Jahuwah has commanded me to be strong, vigorous, and very courageous! I am not afraid neither am I dismayed…” I was reminded of a passage I say frequently from John chapter 14:

I do not let my heart be troubled; neither do I let it be afraid. I do not allow myself to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit myself to be fearful, intimidated, cowardly or unsettled. From John chapter 14 of Bear’s Prayers.


[1] To turn from it is to not care about & seek after the Torah’s proper application.
