The Holy Place
No Longer a
Slave to Fear
By: Minister Victor Padilla
In my lifetime I have looked death in
the face, weathered many trials and
tribulations, and many times in
those situations I knew if it wasn’t
for the hand of God, I would not be
here at this moment. 1 John 4:18
says...” There is no fear in love. But
perfect love drives out fear, because
fear has to do with punishment. The
one who fears is not made perfect in
love. When People are confronted
with many different problems and
situations that they cannot handle, it
strikes Fear into their hearts, then it
begins to control their lives forcing
them to become SLAVES to Fear.
I am here to tell you that Fear has
no place in your heart, it is God
who has that right to be in your
heart through his Holy Spirit. God
paid the price for that right earned
through his son Jesus Christ. I often minister to people who are going through devastating situations
like Cancer, Leukemia, or financial,
some very devastating problems,
and the very first thing I tell them
is…” If you truly believe in God,
give your life to him, and have Faith,
then you must know that you are
a child of God, you belong to him,
and he is in control no matter what.”
I then pray peace over them and
speak LIFE into their situation.
be depressed, to be suicidal, to hate
themselves, to be the complete opposite of what God intended them
to be and sadly enough they are destroyed by it. When you’re a slave
to fear you are being controlled by
forces that are ungodly and its purpose is to take you down, do you
want to know why? It’s because
when you were born God had a
purpose for your life and fear is one
of the greatest tools that the enemy
uses to destroy you.
comes, delivers, for you are no longer a slave to fear.
Here are some scriptures to read and
hold onto. Psalm 118:6 The LORD is
with me; I will not be afraid. What
can man do to me? For God did not
give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline. Psalm 23:4 Even though I
walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for
you are with me; your rod and your
staff, they comfort me. Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and courageous.
Do not be afraid or terrified because
of them, for the LORD your God
goes with you; he will never leave
you nor forsake you." My brothers
and sisters stand tall for you are
children of God, be blessed and remember, it is your faith that moves
the hand of God.
You’re a child of God and being a
child of God you have the authority to abolish fear in your life, stand
and be delivered from being a slave
to it. From this day forward no matter what situat [ۈ [
