Fear Is a Liar

Today while waiting for my mother sitting in the car, I turned on the radio to a popular Christian station. We had stop to pick up my prescriptions, and I had opted to sit in the car with it running rather than walking into the store. Well the song by Zach Williams  Fear Is a Liar, came on, and it was just a reassuring message of hope and God's grace. In February a neurologist diagnosed with an auto immune disease. This condition affects my balance, primary causing walking to become more difficultly or impossible if not being assisted at some times. The good news this condition is totally curable with medication. However, my doctor told me it could takes up 9 months to see results. It been about 7 months now, and rather than seeing improvement the condition seem to have worsen.  Back to sitting in the parking lot listening to the radio as this song comes on. Fear is a liar as I believe it is the greatest weapon the devil to use against us. The chorus is as follows:
Fear, he is a liar
He will take your breath
Stop you in your steps
Fear he is a liar
He will rob your rest
Steal your happiness
Cast your fear in the fire
'Cause fear he is a liar 
 Satan wants us to live anxious, depressing, sorrowful lives. When something in our lives doesn't go right he swoops down to tell us convincing lies at the most vulnerable times. A elder at a church I attended back in college described Satan once as a rat with a huge megaphone. He is right Satan might tell good false hoods to us, but God works everything together as good according to his perfect will. Jeremiah 29:11,"For I know the plans I have for you,'declares the LORD,' plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". I can't see God's plan of how he going to provide healing for me in this instance. Sometimes to be honest I say to myself,"well will this time God doesn't have a plan for me?". I am just reminded that Satan is a liar, and truth only comes from our Lord. The songs ends with the chorus, but the last two lines above is this. Oh, let Your fire fall and cast out all my fears let your fire fall your love is all I feel. Trust God with all our heart no matter what you are going through, or have been through. Don't let past or the present be fearful for you. God has a plan and he is in control despite whatever you might think or fell. Because Satan he is just a liar. Fear Is a Liar- Lyrics Video
