Everyone faces fear—sometimes it arrives as a whisper, sometimes as a storm. But what if there was a way not just to manage fear, but to be truly delivered from it? Chapter 3 of Fear is a Liar reveals the biblical secret to breaking free from the cycle of fear, guilt, shame, and rejection.

Fear is often fueled by four heavy burdens: guilt over what we’ve done, rejection from others, shame that whispers we are not enough, and blame that paralyzes us. These are the “four horsemen” of fear, riding through our lives and clouding our view of God’s goodness.

Yet God never leaves us in our struggle. The story of Scripture is about a loving Father who promises deliverance. Even when Adam and Eve’s choices brought fear into the world, God declared that one day the serpent’s head would be crushed (Genesis 3:15). That day came when Jesus, the Great Shepherd, faced our fears on the cross and won.

How does deliverance from fear work?
  • Guilt is gone: In Jesus, your mistakes are forgiven. You no longer have to live trapped by the past.

  • Rejection is gone: You are fully accepted by God; you don’t need to earn His approval or fear being cast aside.

  • Shame is gone: Christ took your shame and gives you honor. You are a beloved child, not a hopeless case.

  • Blame is gone: Jesus took the blame for your failures. You can stop striving for perfection and rest in His grace.

Deliverance isn’t about ignoring your fears, but trusting the One who conquered them. Jesus’s victory on the cross is your victory over every root of fear. When you put your faith in Him, the chains fall off—and you begin to walk in freedom.

Reflection:
  • Which of the four fears—guilt, rejection, shame, or blame—tries to hold you back?

  • How does Jesus’s victory change your view of yourself and your struggles?

  • What is one step you can take today to walk in freedom and confidence?

Remember, freedom from fear is not just a hope for the future—it’s a reality for those who trust in Christ. The One who crushed the serpent’s head walks with you today.
