What do you do when fear and anxiety threaten to take over your life? In today’s world, fear comes in many forms—worry about the future, health, family, or even faith. The good news is that fear is not your destiny. As a special bonus in Powerful Prayers in the War Room, Daniel B. Lancaster shares biblical insights from his bestselling book Fear Is a Liar, giving you practical steps to conquer fear through prayer and the promises of God.

Why Fear Grows—and How to Fight Back

Fear can creep in slowly, like weeds in a garden. If left alone, it can choke out joy, peace, and faith. But the first step in defeating fear is to recognize its origin: the lies of the Enemy. Just as Satan deceived Adam and Eve, he tries to use fear to separate us from God’s love and purpose.

God’s answer? Perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4:18). When we bring our fears to God in honest prayer, He meets us with compassion and truth.

The LOVE Plan for Overcoming Fear

Daniel B. Lancaster outlines a four-step biblical plan:

  1. Listen to God’s truth, not the enemy’s lies.

  2. Open your heart in honest prayer—admit your fear and bring it to God.

  3. Verify your thoughts with Scripture; replace fear with God’s promises.

  4. Expect God to act. Trust Him for peace, strength, and new confidence.

Prayer Is the Path to Freedom

When fear strikes, don’t run or hide. Instead, turn to prayer:

  • Pray the promises of God over your life.

  • Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal hidden fears and the truth that will set you free.

  • Write out your fears and the Scriptures that answer them.

  • Remember: every answered prayer is proof that God is bigger than your fears.

Conclusion: You Can Be Free

No matter what you face, you don’t have to let fear rule your life. With God’s help, prayer, and His Word, you can walk in freedom, love, and victory. Don’t let fear steal another day—bring it to the War Room and discover the peace God promises.
