Bill Johnson talks about the importance of breaking the fear of man and embracing the fear of God. The fear of man undermines the fear of God, and the two cannot coexist together. If we want to be effective in this world as followers of Christ, we must be willing to break the power of the fear of man in our lives. The fear of man often masquerades as wisdom in wanting to seek the counsel of others, but will always lead us in the opposite direction of what the Holy Spirit is saying, distorting our perception. When facing disappointment, loss, or betrayal, we must follow Jesus’ example of getting alone with God. Only He truly knows how to heal the hurt in our heart and restore us. When we allow God to heal our heart, on the other side of challenge is great fruit. It is important to have wise friends and accountability, but most important is prioritizing the Presence of God and hearing Him for ourselves. We cannot afford to live under the influence of the fear of man.
