The Lies Fear Tells
Reading: Romans 8:28 - And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Devotional: The sermon references a psychiatrist who observed that most of what we tell ourselves is a lie. Fear is one of the most effective liars we will ever encounter. It inflates molehills into mountains, especially at three in the morning. It convinces us that the worst outcome is the most likely one. Romans 8 confronts that lie directly. The truth is that God is for you, that nothing can separate you from His love, and that even the hardest circumstances are not beyond His reach. Today, identify one fear-driven thought you have been treating as fact. Hold it up against the truth of this passage.
