The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. Psalms 27:1-4 KJV
This massage came right on time. My daughter had a dream that a child in her school tired to harm her. She was fearful and scared to go school today. We prayed and believed that God will shield and protect her. I have to admit that i was fearful too, i told her that this is the time to step out on faith. I left it in God hands.
Thanks Paster Craig G Lewis and ALL of the EX ministeries team for this message. In Revelation 21 I believe it the speaks of those who will go to hell and first mentioned are the Fearful and unbelieving. That has always stuck with me. God's Perfect Love, Casts out ALL fear. I have shared your message today. My Pastor says 2 quote about fear didn't know if it's his quote? 1 ) FEAR.... F/ALASE E/VIDENCE A/PPEARING R/eal. 2) Fear is the dark room where ALL the negatives are developed. Thanks again Team, your ministry is a true Blessing. May God continue to Bless and keep. Amen! 🙏
Listen I am trying to tell you all I just went through the TOUGHEST BATTLE I went and start to listen to Pastor G Craig Lewis podcast and started making changes in my life for GOD and when I say Im beyond grateful for his teachings trust me God is perfect!!!! Im not where Im supposed to be but IM SO GRATEFUL WHERE I CAME FROM!!!!!!
Keep preaching truth Pastor G. Craige Lewis. Not many pastors preach like this today. Not many want to be this REAL...I feel, maybe THEY have fear...fear of the people.
Praise The Lord for 44 minutes!!! I forgot to watch the DVD while at my sister house last week. We've been watching these about 8 years now. Before youtube, there EX DVDs I still have
I am, with my family, in the same condition...looking for a church that refuses to Compromise. A True PASTOR is hard to find. We had to leave our church because it fell into apostasy, which All began with the disease of GOSSIP. It has infiltrated that church and hurt So Many People. We were among some of the hardest hit from it...Straight from the Wife of the "Pastor", who refused to stop her. We were there nearly 12 years, worked in almost every capacity of needs. Our hearts have been broken. In this I learned that Church should never be such a deep portion of what I think my "identity" is. Like, what "ministries" I work. God alone calls us, and God alone deserves the title of the One whom I find my identity in. It was Healing for me to see this comment you made. I have felt so very alone...and even as we forge ahead, there has been a looming uncertainty about where we will land eventually. May we All Hear and Respond Only to the voice of God when He places us in a church. I will pray for your journey, and the other commentors. May the Lord Be Glorified in our lives. He makes All Things work Together for the Good of those who Love Him and Are Called according to His Purpose. Romans 8:28
@@pinkbubblessparkles6581 Amen! May the Lord continue to bless and lead you and your family to the right fellowship. He is definitely working on your behalf!❤🙏🙌
Pink Bubbles & Sparkles I can totally relate. I was in a church for 16 years. They stopped calling out sin; not from the pulpit nor in private. It broke the church down until the Pastor was caught with four affairs (that we know of cause I left three years ago and just found out about the fourth!). It took me two years to heal because I had literal demonic encounters in the church building the last few months I was there. The ministry of G. Craige and a small baptist church near my house helped me tremendously to heal. The baptist church closed last year. I go to a pretty good church now but it is really big. I’m attending regularly but hopefully can find something smaller where I can fellowship more.
@@Theholywomenclub Celebrates Halloween? Girl, you have to get out of there quickly, listen to the voice of God and do what He instructs you to do and don't compromise to partake in that demonic witchcraft. Because that is opening a door for the devil to come in.
Anisah A well I’ll sit home before I sit under some foolishness! That’s how people end up drinking the koolaid- like Jim Jones. Some things God doesn’t have to tell us cause it’s common sense. If we sit around and wait for him to move us, Knowing we shouldn’t be there, then he’s not gonna move you. He gives us a brain and common sense. If a preacher is sexing up the women in the church, (been there), trying to get you to be carnally minded like them (been there), doing hoo doo in the church, not preaching against sin (Halloween, etc). Gods just might let you sit there , cause you got free will and you know better . God bless
I love this man and his teachings he is also extremely funny 🤣🤣🤣but he breakdown the Bible he is definitely one of my favorites he is bold and brave and he speaks God's truth... God bless you richly ❤️ ❤️ and thank you..
I have been struggling with fear & anxiety mainly due to Financial stress keeping me out of my sleep and constantly being on my mind 24/7 I have decided to read the word of God and by fully submitting myself to the Lord. Each and everyday I Thank God for being with me and for being faithful to me. If he takes care of the Sparrows surely he will look after me. THANK YOU JESUS!!
I woke up to this message this morning something I have needed for a long time been having anxiety and very bad nightmares but I know now God is able and I will keep standing on his word. Thank you, Pastor Lewis.
Strawberry sweet, I suffered with anxiety very badly.....and I submitted all to the LORD JESUS....ALL! I was abused by my husband....I started to see changes in my life. The fear left. I focus on the WORD daily. Listening, speaking and reading the WORD. GOD BLESS YOU!.🌹
I have to be careful listening to your sermons at work, Pastor Craige, because there is not a time where I don’t want to burst out laughing. I almost got caught watching this sermon. Had to fake a loud cough! 😂😂😂
This is so true. We must not condemn people when they are in fear. Instead we should both encourage them and help them go through this fear by loving them and giving them the tools they need to fight and resist the spirit of fear. Being patient with them until they overcome it. Bear with one another brethren. Speak gently yet firm to those suffering with fear. The reason I say this is because many believers are miserable comforters in encouragement to those that have a weak conscience in certain matters. We must meet them where they are at without an sense of superiority. With a spirit of humility. To help strengthen their faith. Those that are struggling already know that they are weak in faith in that area(s). They don't need you to condemn them for it. Instead, uplift them in spite of it with love. That's why many leave the church because of their weak conscience they feel they never measure up and so give up and go back to the world. The church has failed in showing Grace and compassion for the new and old converts. So we make them twice the son of the devil because of the hardness of our hearts. We must learn to be good teachers not bad ones.
we need to daily be in his word and in fellowship with the brothers. So that we can grow in our faith and handle the truth. Things are going to get very rough economically socially and otherwise so we need to girt up the loins of our minds and pray in the Holy Spirit but we also need to be getting out of debt and preparing making wise choices with our money and with our time God bless you. Don't be afraid be prepared walk close to God walk in peace with your brothers and get out of debt
Pastor Lewis, thank you for this message. You have made things very clear, that we are not to partner with the lies of the enemy. Also not to open the doors of access, by doing things that are against the Word and will of God. This was indeed solid food and not to be taken lightly. Galatians 5:1.
Thank You so much for that message. I have been dealing with fear recently to the point of panic attacks. I love the way you broke it down about fear and how to deal with through the Word of God. I have to renew my mind daily. I plan to listen to this message over and over again. Keep bringing the true preaching of God’s Word. Bless you and your ministry.
Pastor G , I only got 7 minutes into the message and your comic illustrations painted such a clear and vivid picture of the principles of God's Word on fear. Thank you and God bless you in Jesus name.
Very convicting! Thank you for not only being obedient but also vulnerable. God bless you, Pastor G Craig Also, is there a spirit of anxiety over the earth like never before? I see it so much on everyday Christians and 30 years ago we didn't have all the books on anxiety and how do many have to be medicated for it. I had it but it came from sin in my life and I told my counselor that I needed that fixed, not to add to my chemical makeup with medicine. The medicine made it worse. I needed that "thing" fixed or continue to trust God that He was strengthening me. It's just so common now for anxiety. Feels like an oppressive spirit over the earth, like the spirit of homosexuality that's flooded us.
This is EXACTLY what I've been suffering with for the last 5-6 years. I've been gripped by these exact fears since fear has been birthed in me (don't know where or how) and its hard to move forward. Ever since I stepped outside of God and walked after the sinful nature, I became carnal and I believe the man I dated (and had children with out of wedlock. Really not good) struggles with this because all he does is drink and take drugs and I presume its because fear has taken hold. If only I had known these things before following this path. Now I'm struggling to have faith at all and its sad because I used to have SO much faith. Never doubted God then. Now I am praying.
I'm listening to you Pastor, thank you for calling me to the alter. I have been at a halt due to health problems. The lamp was told to me when I was 11 years old that God always provides for me. I had a job that I was well to do a secure family. So I thought my ex husband became abusive and a thief. I was left with only you my Lord. You hv been my husband and healed me given me back my first love. You God I seek and yearn for your voice to wake me. I have had endured pain of 10 women and still I proclaim JESUS IS LORD. SOME HV SAID I'M VERY BEAUTIFUL. PEOPLE I NEVER USED MY BEAUTY ONLY MY MIND. EPILEPSY IS WHAT I HV BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH.FEAR KEPT ME FROM SLEEPING OF DYING IN MY SLEEP. HALLELUJAH I'M STILL BREATHING AND GOD NOW USE ME FOR YOUR KINGDOM.. AMEN. THE DEVIL THOUGHT TAKING MATERIAL THINGS FROM ME. HAVING SEIZURES TAKING BIT BY BIT OF ME SLOWLY. GOD SHOWED YOU SHE'S THE APPLE OF MY EYE. HE HAS KEPT ME HIDDEN UNDER HIS WINGS.
Praise God!!!! I needed to hear this right now today! I have allowed fear to rule me for way too long. I will operate in the Holy Spirit from today forward.
Thank you so much for your obedience to God and delivering this message it truly help me today I believe after hearing this message I will never be the same again.
I really needed to hear this right now! Lord please I give my life to you. Please guide me clearly that you’re scared child right here can see the path you have for me! Lord you know me better then I know myself. Lorde I trust you more then anybody! I worship you Lorde and not the people around me! I believe You alone Lorde can guide me to a place of peace! 🕊🕊🕊 In Jesus name Ahmen!
I needed this lol!! When I first came to God last year, so the first thing I dabbed in was spiritual warfare (I know am so crazy for that) I start getting attacked by them to the point I nearly die. I was in fear to the point I didn't pray for months but God is good and he call me back to him.
I am not afraid anymore. Thanks to this anointed message this is my 3rd time watching and I even paused it to take all the notes and write down the scriptures that were mentioned. God is so faithful. 🙌🏼
Thank you for that Word: halalujah, I'm not afraid. Whew!!! Lord make me a doer of your Word, thanks pastor may God increase you more and more in Jesus Mighty Strong Name Amen, Amen, And Amen.
This message came right on time! As the scripture of God hasn't given us the spirit of fear came to me this message came up in my notifications! I really enjoyed this, and you had me rolling with laughter all while recieving the truth! Be blessed man of God!
