    (THE VIDEO IS MY RESPONSE TO LAST WEEKS QUESTION)

    Fear has been proposed to be an instict used for protection fro and prevention of danger. A few animalistic experince as seen it to have averted danger as an animal sprinting off at the sight of impending death may have actualy saved its life, however, the animal then refuses to go out roming for food because of the fear that a lion is out there.

    A lion is out there, also looking for what to eat and prey on, formulating its agenda and hhow to catch the weak, theh swiift and the heavy. No one is above its catch.

    In these series of questions that have been coming concerning actions, why we dont act, what limits actions and now what exactly we fear and why. it has been a series that has caught my interest and I have loved participating in it. However, last week, I was down with the virus just after I had shot the video response to QOTW 8.6. Which made me not to be able to post produce the video for publish.

    I however decided to make this post a double post with answers to the previous question and to this current one which would still be in the same series.

    MY ANSWER TO QOTW 8.7

    WHAT DO WE FEAR
    I gave an analogy above about an animal too scared to go out because there was a lion out there that was hungry.
    Now, is that wisdom? Should this said animal die of hunger because it doesn't wanna die being eaten up.
    what the fear is here is not even the hunger which may lead to the same end as being caught by the lion, but rather dying by the hand of the lion.
    Isn't there a chance the lion doesn't find it to prey, a chance perhaps that the animal outruns the lion for instance, can it run

    So what it fear is really not the lion, but its own incapability.

    what is fear?

    Fear is simply lack of trust in what we have. It is a survival mechanism and may have saved a lot of people. it is not just the unpleasant feeling, or the emotional turmoil that occurs. all of that I mostly see as consequency of lack of confidence.

    Its like preparring fo r an exam, a lot of candidatesa attend with fear but those who have covered the curriculum and have a great understanding of th esubject will smile to the hall and back, knowing they have done justice to the course. But some will be scared, not becaue of the lion, the exam, the weather or the storm, but because they were never ready.
    They never prepared for the times. So when it comes, they a scared because they are not fit to stand.

    The truth is that, the lion will always be in the streets, danger is always outthere, yet we have chosen to take the risk and engage in our daily activities to put food on our table.

    Prov 22:13 The slothful man says there is a lion without, I shall be slain on the streets.

    Lol, the streets are not smiling tho, but we keep surviving.

    NOW WHY DO WE FEAR?

    To be honest I have asked the same question too, but like the natural man is resistant to change or new knowledge, whenever something bigger than what he knows shows up. He will fear.

    A bible says in Hosea 4:6 My people Perish becasue they lack Knowledge.
    They have have rejected knowledge..

    this is very critical for me as this explains why we fear.
    Confidence is built on knowledge, without that, we can't thrive in trust.
    So if we must remove fear, we ll have to buid confidence somehow, which comes from a knowing.

    There is one knowledge I know that has has help me from being fearful in nature.
    This knowing can bring peace and the peace has been described to beyond understanding. That is knowing the Lord Jesus as Lord and saviour.

    In summary, as much as fear could be a protective instinct, as well as be a limiting factor to achieve our goals, however, we must learn wasy to overcome it and do what we really must do with adequate knowledge.
