Conquer your FEARS


"The vehicle that moves you
slowly toward your  destination 
is better than that moving you very 
fast but against your 
destination."

Everyone in life has one or the other reason(s) why they would or would not embark on a certain journey annexing one or the other destinations. Sometimes, everyone moving in your direction is not sharing the same destinations as you. But some walked to or with you not to accompany or assist you get to your destination. But some mostly do so because they could or do not want to toll that path all alone. For the sake of safety and benefit of an accomplice. When such a path is scantly filled with a crowd. The heart beats suspiciously or admonishingly toward whoever joined you on such a journey; although such might not be totally cordial. The most endemic instinctual drive to this is that most do not even trust the person they are travelling with.   

1 John 4:18 (KJV)
18 There is no fear in love; 
but perfect love casteth out fear: 
because fear hath torment. 
He that feareth is not made 
perfect in love.

The reason for me to write to you once again from those literary perspectives that embrace positional positivism and that which equally eschewed redundancy but create an affinity to the proximity of the possibilities of responsibilities that partially or totally depends on your responsiveness. Whatever indulgence a man finds himself in life has to do with his positive or negative responsiveness. Such charismatic affinity which is required to perfectly carry out most needed exemplary and cogent abilities in life are desirably and instinctually deposited within each and every one of us who sees why we should think deeply and inwardly to billow upon the hidden rudiment of our full capacities.

"THERE IS A 
TEACHER 
WITHIN YOU"    

To all readers and faithful across the world, I appreciate you and your entire family, even those cute pets of yours. May the peace and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ continue to be with us all. There are definitely teachers living within each and every one of us. Teachers are not almost always physically academician alone. Though there are visible (physical) teachers as well as the invisible and then the most superlative teacher which was and will always be invincible. The God Almighty, the beginning and the source of every human and giver of inspirations to all who was ever created.  

But it will be a great disservice If I have volubly written to you concerning failures and I do not intimate you once again on the breeds that accumulate those tiny instinctual grains of wit and whiff that eventually present one as an irredeemable failure. FEARS is that one and great enemy that reduces you below your capacities. Once encased within its abilities, you find your functionalities reduced to virtually non-existing. When fear is allowed in concrete or abstract capacities, it slowed down your capacity and abilities to excel in every little or great thing you set your mind to achieve.     
1 John 4:18-20  (KJV)
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

There are the visible and the invisible fears, but the good news to all these class(es) of fears are; they are all surmountable. God has created and enabled humans to succeed virtually wherever they have set their mind to succeed. The greatest height of impossibilities lies within the veins of that man whose premises are hugely deposited on the heresy of impossibilities. And the presumption to that is the alibi that had been sought after by the souls and tenet of FEARS!. Mathew: 19:26


Fears as it is, either in the visible or invisible form are reductive, encage, engaging, excruciating and regrettable. The irony of all these is that fear doesn't feel or bear the brunt of any of all these pains. Why!. Because it doesn't really exist in concrete or tactile formations. But its instruments and results are veritable, tactile, tangible and contagious. Fear is absolutely psychological and abstract. So if the fears get at you, the pains boomerang and come back to you.

The moments your heart beats start mitigating and pulsating more than usual, ordinary and necessary. And the voices within you could no longer be clearly heard. Every little or no moves or sounds activates or deactivates you. Then you begin to fumble when you intended to humble. I mean those moments you could no longer decisively moved within your senses. The moments you were not sick but you're visibly trembling, just watch out dear brethren. As the lurking predators (fears) are preparing to reduce you by its calculative moves.

FEARS are not totally fearsome without the indulgence of your senses into the fearful worlds. Once you have allowed fears to radiate and permeate your senses into the below worlds of instinctual subconsciousness. You could barely make a proper and adequate choice or be positively purposeful driving in life. You need courage and firmness, not jelly-like grasp on the clock of time.

And how do you achieve these?. The number of enemies tenaciously working against your progress is fears. Meanwhile, progress is not far away from you but such signs of progress and successes had their routes and paths stuck among the shelves of fears. Would you, as a result, drop the notion of achieving such progress?. The answer is 'NO' Instead, why don't you work and war at defeating your fears?. The moment this is achieved, your purpose begins to radiate.

Peter denied our Lord Jesus Christ due to fear of the known and unknown. (John 18:15-27) The same Peter could not enjoy his reigns for long by having his attempt cut short by the billows of the ocean's currents. (Matthew 14:28-29). Yet, this same Peter could have been the one to betray him unto the enemy but Judas Iscariot did instead. Because our Lord Jesus Christ noticed him (Peter) struggling and wagging serious war against his fear until that is achieved he retained and remain ones of those who continuously battle fears and as such had victory over such. 


Although no one has or has never been afraid at a point in life. But this epistle is here to caution you about losing the precious jewels of life's achievement to fears. It is good to be averagely afraid but that should not be in order to give an undeserved reductive force a hold upon your time and life. Fears should not be given a necessary ambience by you. Hence been totally submerged by the billows and torrents of fears. How do you make a choice, if you were been scared by any and every little challenges or non-challenging happenstance? Some life advantageous decisions need precise and pungent grasp, not a periodical slippery hold. Which is what fears has to over you.



"BUT THE FEARS 
OF FAILURES 
COULD 
ACTUALLY 
BE THE 
BEGINNING 
OF LEARNING"


Excessive fear is one and is all that is intending to stagnate you from achieving those good aims and objectives on time in life. For example; according to the quotation above, why should you be on a vehicle that moves you slowly, when the obvious states that the time is against you?. Although, the best is better than the worst. But why would you rather drive slowly when you could move faster than the present acceleration?. If your calculations were to arrive at your destinations late. Have you considered the prize to the consequences?. And again, why would you rather leave to such a destination too late than necessary?. And why should you drive too fast and fury to the claws of avoidable vital accidents?.
"Every man is a 
principal to his principles".


Sometimes, as humans, we might have developed the ability to kicked against the obvious and deny a most very simple truth. But, how long do you intend to remain under such guise? So many people in life have through and by the means of known and unknown fear loss what could have been and remained a total turning point of their life. Some would later blame A or B even blame Folorunsho Alayo for their predicaments when it was obvious they were clearly the brain behind their deluges of misfortunes. Some are not bold enough to expeditiously analyse and defend a contract that could have change their fortunes forever. Probably the interviewers were throwing bricks and jabs questions from too many angles and the jurors were so uncomplimentary.

But sage and sagacity imply input that you comport and maintain your stand inasmuch as you have done your homework. Why should you be jittery before the gathering of men who are just merely there to ask, listen, analyse and comprehend what you have submitted?. Fear!. Doubt. Questionably figures could have been reasons for these. A result to which some have even lost a supposed life partner that could have been there anytime, every time for the rest of their lives.

In my secondary schools days, lots of drama played out. I wouldn't cheaply succumb or admit that I was fearless. Because I remembered hiding behind the classroom whenever it's time for lecture all because I couldn't afford to pay the school fee. And I wouldn't want to be seen by the year tutor. I almost always sneaked in and out of School. But I was determined to be in school. I guess that was positive fear. Isn't?. But one day, when I finished my morning chores on the street where I lived back then, I took all the dirt to the nearest dump site where I found pairs of shoes, exactly my size. But the laces were not there. According to me, though young yet I have learned to always trust in God. And that same God surely provided laces for my newly found shoes. On that same dumpsite, I found old and torn rubber mat out of which I carefully etched out laces. Voila! My new school shoes.

I digress a bit at these points to plead with all brethren around the globe. Those reliefs materials that are no longer needed by you but could still be useful to others please give it out. To the homeless, Motherless, Orphanage and the aimless. They are all part of our existence. If God has been so graceful in His bountiful mercy. to remember and cater to us and we could afford more and all we have ever needed. There are millions of people out there whose hope of daily income or intake of proper care and ingestion are at the lust and perils of fears. Please in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ help reach out to them all around you. God bless you as you do so in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

A kind of vague fears was partially subdued. Then I was full of confidence, quick and ready for school. On that fateful day, I refused to hide behind the classroom simply I have school sandals, and I believed I was neatly dressed. But the moment I heard the teacher walking down our classroom. I made for my usual hideout but it was too late. The teacher spotted me and the ensued punishment was never a good tale. But when I later found out that the teacher who eventually punished me was not actually coming for inspection or debtors. I wished my fears could be in the physical so that we could both held at each others' jugular and probably go our different ways.


But fear doesn't operate that way. 


David formidable opposition was never King Saul and his entire household (excepting his son Jonathan) alone. But also his brethren from the same loin didn't like him, just like Joseph and his brothers. The fears that could be more intimidating is that of intimacy. Fears of intimacy. The Bible said in
Matthew 10:36 
a man's enemies will be
 the members of his 
own household.'

The fears and battles targetted against the young David didn't instantly start with the king Saul of Israel but with his brothers. (I Samuel 16:1-13)


But remember brethren that all forms of fears are surmountable, the cogency to this is, first of all, identify your fears. Admit such fears. Tolerate it for a while but not forever. Because the fears you do not tolerate for a while deprived you of whatever advantage or disadvantages that such fears might actually portend. Tolerating your fears for a while do not make you a coward but rather a researcher of a sort. Because if you have never experienced it, you cannot taste it, If you have never tasted it. You cannot understand it; and if you do not understand it, you cannot explain it and if you cannot explain it you cannot defend yourself against it. And if you cannot defend yourself against it. You have just submitted yourself to instincts of unnecessarily Lordship; an unwanted boss.

Fears, Friends and Foes just like failures and successe are found and could be seen any and everywhere around us. Even the next unsuspecting occupant(s) of the next-door neighbourhood could be one. Your best friend now could be one within the next few hours ahead. You shouldn't necessarily submit yourself to those mitigating unsavoury fears. Even from those overbearing colleagues aiming to cowed you to a corner and then deployed a professionally laden cheating ideology through which they pummel you to that permanent, begging present and future coordinated subordinations.


Jeremiah 30:8-10 King James Version (KJV)

For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break 
his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers 
shall no more serve themselves of him:

But they shall serve the Lord their God, 
and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.

10 
Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, 
saith the Lord; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, 
I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the 
land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, 
and shall be in rest, and be quiet, 
and none shall make him afraid.  


Philippians 4:13 (NKJV)
I can do all things 
through Christ who 
strengthens me. 

Romans 8:31 (KJV)

What shall we then 
say to these things? 
If God be for us, who 
can be against us?

The more and the moments you believed in God and His only begotten Son  (JESUS CHRIST) John 9: 35 - 38 The Holy Spirit is sent and given to be with you and all over everything that needs and has to do with you. So, therefore; you do no longer need be afraid. This is not breeding you to be violent or fanatical but encouraging you to be bold and principled. But I don't actually see anything wrong if you were violence against any intimidating or incriminating fears that sort to temporary or permanently pushed you into submissive modes which are totally against your preferred principles.


The mighty lion was 
once ashamed of his strength
the moment he realized that 
the tiny Tse-tse fly is his 
neighbour, which he 
cannot Conquer. 

That is an epitome of strength as relating to realities of existentialism. Fears will always be testing your wit and abilities. As you can see the lion cannot hunt the flies, though he would have loved to, he just couldn't. Now by assumption, if the flies were happened to be an antelope or a buffalo. The case and the scenario would have been a totally different one. As the king of the jungle would have unleashed the seizing grips of his razor-like claws and canine upon such. And his canine engaged to the jugular of such prey ready to pull and rent apart. But as for the lucky you; that fear can no longer reduce you, the moments you have made up your mind not to tolerate that fearful habits that refuse to respect or abide by your principles. Your principles are attitudinal guidelines and more on your personality.


Matthew 10:28 (KJV)

And fear not them which kill 
the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

Matthew 5:48  (NKJV)

Therefore you shall be perfect, 
just as your Father in heaven is perfect.


Matthew 10:29-32 (NKJV)

29 
Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? 
And not one of them falls to the ground
 apart from your Father’s will. 

30 
But the very hairs of your
head are all numbered. 

31 
Do not fear therefore; you are of 
more value than many sparrows.
Confess Christ Before Men

32 
“Therefore whoever confesses Me 
before men, him I will also confess 
before My Father who is in heaven.


Fears are robbing you of great feats and achievements in life. So many of us had lost or missed the one that could have walked us down the aisle with a promising future and forever blissfulness. Fears are so intimidating that if cares are not taken one will drop the right for the wrong. You just need to be key-attitudes careful when fears approach from many and different angles. With and by all manners of part of speech and terms like; intimidation, scare, afraid, jittery, panic etc.

But I will still implore you not to deter. Some men due to fear have lost good, promising future partner all because they were probably not bold enough to express themselves. Likewise, some young women in their prime. Expression all over the world would rather get a 'yes' or 'no' oral or bodily or better still, written languages. While some could or would be bold enough to resolve everything at the temerity of non-violent physical confrontation. Why should you die inside and so silently?. Renounce those fears lucking within the realms of your instinct. Make your yes a yes; and do not wary to give a 'No' where and when the situations on the ground require.

Why hiding your real and true beautiful identities under a fake life due to fear and intimidation?.
Even against that, bullying colleagues stood your ground although, not physically, but let such whoever he/she understands that you are human with precedence, prudence principles and would be loved to be seen, treated and regarded as one. But before you do that, be sure you are defending a just course.

"ORIGINAL IS THE 
INSTITUTIONS 
UPON WHICH FAKE 
WAS FOUNDED"

Some would be belittling themselves due to fear of the known and unknown. If you continue under such guise, when will you be ready to live to your real identity?. Do no longer allow yourself to be continuously intimidated. Stand for what you are. Defend and boldly proclaim those good and positive identities which is what and whom you would be love to be known for. You are not created nor meant to live the life that is not befitting your tenet or principles. Every person is clearly meant to be and live for a purpose and if you are not living to that purpose which you has carefully clearly underlined for yourself, you'll be living or dancing to the tune of an inferior purpose. Due to the fears which you have refused to scrutinized and so conquer.
Elisha was never the only prophet under Elijah but he was the only one who could tame his fears and did the extraordinary. He could talk the talk, walk the walk, stood so unmitigatedly firm where others would dare not. It was not as if Elisha was not human like the rest of his cohort but he was fully charged to tame and quit his fears when and where others were so scared to tred.

He could see what others did not see. Hear what others did not hear and dare what other would never attempt daring. Fear is never a good accomplice when it comes to achieving one's heart desires and lifetime dreams. You could be seen or regarded as the minute or inconsequential and tiny as the little flea but the spirit that lives in you is never minute or insignificant. Remember the Bible says;


1 John 4:4 (KJV)

Ye are of God,
 little children, and have 
overcome them: because
 greater is he that is in you, 
than he that is in 
the world.

Fears should never be gainfully deployed or permitted to set your limitations. Yes, no doubt there are fears all around in the world but almost always remember that who is in you is the greatest than that who lives in the world. If you apportion a greater chunk of your senses or inner being to that reducing, redundance stagnating fears. How do you confidently forge ahead in life?. Why should you be that who would never be willing to live up to his/her fulfilling dreams as given and engendered by the true you?. You are meant and made an independent being. Freedom is all yours to imply and employ to do great exploit. But if you relapse to surrendering to reducing quietism of fears. How and where and to whom would you be able to fully express the liberty that has been readily deposited within your senses in order to that and whom you were made to be?. Dear brethren, You are freeborn not a slave to anybody even fears.

John 8:36 (KJV) 
If the Son therefore shall 
make you free, ye shall 
be free indeed.

Fears made the tortoise 
retract into its shell;
but such retraction
also rendered it 
motionless.
Does such retraction empower it to exploit?. No. What it needs to keep going are outside. 




Rejoice in the Lord always; 
and again I say, 
Rejoice. Philippians 4:4
