No fear

Brothers and sisters, We are called to display his virtues and excellence - 1 Pet 2:9. "We have treasures in earthen vessels, meaning that our power of excellence is from God." Fear is a tool the enemy uses to prevent us from showing forth God's salvation. If we fear, we display our virtues and excellence instead of God's, our Maker's, thereby we are increasing in the flesh and the life of God in us is decreasing.
