Psalm 56.3. When I am in fear, in you I trust. 4. I will glory in God, in his word; I trust in God, I fear nothing: What can men do to me?
Fear is the emotion that accompanies the awareness of a real or imaginary danger or threat in man. It is a more or less lasting state, which can begin with a sentimental shock (which can go as far as anxiety) and trouble (which can manifest itself physically by a tremor, paralysis, etc.).
Fear has always been a means of intimidating the enemy. It is an instrument of pressure to renounce Christ; to push back the opponents so that they give up the cause, It is a tool to activate the spiritual cold in the life of the believer or to relent in the compromise.
