Agape Love Blog – Thursday, August 14, 2025Faith Over Fear

Good morning, dear friends!

Every day, we are faced with choices—to focus on the what-ifs or to stand firm in the promises of God. Fear will always try to speak louder than faith, but it’s our choice which voice we listen to.

Faith says, “God is able.” Fear says, “What if He doesn’t?” But the truth is—He is faithful no matter the outcome.

✝️ Verse of the Day“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”— 2 Timothy 1:7 (KJV)

Fear is not from God. If it’s stealing your peace, it’s not from Him.

Feed your faith, and fear will starve.

Thursday Reflection: Courage in Christ

You are not walking into today alone. The One who formed you, saved you, and loves you walks beside you. When fear rises, speak God’s Word over your heart.

Faith is not the absence of fear—it’s moving forward despite it, because God is with you.

Thursday Prayer:Lord, help me to remember that fear is not from You. Fill me with Your power, love, and sound mind today. Strengthen my faith so that I can walk boldly in the path You have for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Today’s Challenge:Write down one fear you’ve been holding onto. Then pray over it, surrendering it fully to God.

Today, walk in courage and peace—because you belong to the King who holds the world in His hands.
