For many people, worry, anxiety, and fear are constant companions: fear
of death, fear of danger, fear of disease. And too often, these fears are
crippling, keeping us from the life God has called us to live.
But it doesn’t have to be that way, says Dr. David Jeremiah.
As Christians, we have been given all we need in order to face down even the
most frightening, unexpected, and overwhelming obstacles in life.
In his new book, What Are You Afraid Of? Dr. Jeremiah explores the top ten fears that are
holding so many of us back from the life God has called us to live and shares
the supernatural secrets for facing down these fears with faith
From the Inside Flap
What Are You Afraid Of?
What is it that immobilizes you? What is stealing your joy and destroying your
hope? What is robbing you of sleep night after night? What keeps you from
living by faith and taking risks? What keeps you from giving your life wholly
to a loving God who wants nothing but the best for you?
Regardless of your answer to these questions, one thing is absolutely certain:
God is the answer to all your fears.
If God is good and loving (and He is), and if God is all-powerful (and He is),
and if God has a purpose and a plan that includes His children (and He does),
and if we are His children (as I hope you are), then there is no reason to fear
anything, for God is in control of everything.
As you read this book, my prayer is that you will grow in your conviction that
God is the answer to all your fears, that as you look to the future you will
see nothing except His power and love guarding your every step, and that you
will find the truth that sets you free to live the fearless life God created
you to enjoy.
—Dr. David Jeremiah
From the Back Cover
You Can Conquer Fear!
Everyone is afraid of something―failure, success, loneliness, crowds, death,
life―the list is endless. And no one is immune to fear. Fear haunts the weak
and the powerful, the young and the old, the rich and the poor. It is the great
equalizer.
Some fears―hearing an unexpected noise in the night or encountering an icy bend
in the road―attack us only momentarily, passing almost as quickly as they come.
But others, such as contracting a deadly illness, being rejected by a loved
one, or dying alone, can haunt us for a lifetime, taking up residence in our
minds and eating away at our sense of security―and eventually taking over our
lives.
Well, fear not!
There is hope. In What Are You Afraid Of? Dr. David Jeremiah
identifies and explains what is at the heart of nine of our greatest fears and
lays out a biblical plan for overcoming each one of them. He also examines one
particular fear that should be part of our daily lives: the fear of God.
