My opinion about the book “Freedom from fear’’
Introduction/Theme
The subject of fear cannot be over emphasized. Many people are bound by fear and hence cannot maximize their full potential.
There’s literally no man who doesn’t have one or two things they fear except for those who have been able to over come their fears or have found ways to be free from the shackles of fear.
Fear comes in different ways from the little things to the serious things . By all means people have things which they fear and how relieving it would be for them if only they can overcome the objects of their fear.
Did you know there was nothing like fear from the onset when God created the earth? How did all these fears come about?

Key points from the chapters
From the pages of this beautiful book we would deduce some solutions to our problems of fear but first we have to know the source. This book did justice to how to get freedom from fear. Shall we look at some key things to glean from this wisdom of all ages?
- Man wasn’t created with fear. Fear only came with the fall. When God came to call Adam in the garden on that cool evening, what was his response?
I heard your voice, I was “AFRAID” and I hid myself. That was the origin of fear. The first mention of fear. Prior to this moment. It never existed. Fear was faith perverted.
- Fear is the opposite of faith which was what God gave man but it was perverted by Satan hence fear. When you allow fear, Satan uses it to operate in your life and cause havocs.
Faith is the realm of God while fear is satan’s realm.If you allow fear in your life, it would cripple your mind and every important area of your life making you unproductive and am sure you don’t want that.
You should embrace faith In God through his word and have you flooded with might to face lives challenges. Satan knows that this is part of your victory, but he would always want you to walk in fear so as to defeat you but you have to stand your faith ground.
- Have you noticed that the world seem to flow in a downward negative and destructive stream?
Most of the times flow with these negative patterns through our words and affirmations. We talk fear most of the times and things keep going out of hand.
We can replace these negativities with meditation in Gods word and applying the words in our life. When we meditate, we build capacity for faith and the application of faith produces results.

Getting interesting right? I know there are some fears you are dealing with and it would be a breath of fresh air to be freed for them. Why not pick up a copy of this book and see how you can deal with those fears from Gods perspective and enjoy a life of faith.
My rating of the book
Freedom from fear is a master piece which has blessed lives over the years. It’s a must read.
The author on a plain paper used daily life stories and scriptural backings to paint a vivid picture of how we can be freed from fear. I give it 9/10.
Conclusion
It’s either you have faith or fear. None is free from it. One of the ways you can start your journey of freedom from fear is to face those fears.
Today is that day you’ve waited to live a life free of anxiety and fear. Why not dig in and start that beautiful journey today?
