REFUSE TO PANIC

Dear One,
     Panic happens when a person feels that complete loss of control is about to happen, that impending doom is around the corner. Panic is the reaction of your body and mind to loss of control.  Panic is the height, breadth, width and depth of the devil's emotion of fear because it completely engulfs the person, resulting in what the person originally feared, which is loss of control.
      When you are uneducated in something with no insight into it, you often panic when you are faced with it. An example is encountering a snake.  If you are ignorant of the outward signs of snakes indicating whether snakes are poisonous or not you might panic when encountering one. But, if you are educated to recognize the shape of the heads of snakes and certain markings, then you will remain calm because you know whether there is danger or not.  Knowledge is the basis upon whether you will remain calm and not panic.
     The same truth relates to prejudice.  When children are unfamiliar with people of other races and religions, they become fearful and often panic when encountering someone with a skin color different from his own.  The child will judge the person as a threat and run from the stranger.  Adults do the same things, pre-judging people of different religions, ethnic backgrounds and skin colors.  It is fear that is at the basis of all prejudice, racial prejudice as well as ethnic and religious prejudices, fear of loss of control of one's rights, his freedoms or his station in life.
     Panic in unfamiliar situations, circumstance or localities is also about loss of control, fearing someone will attack and you won't have the arsenal to defend yourself.
     My children who know My voice and know My truth about My angelic protection of them are panic-free because they know Me and know that they are always in control of things because of the power of My Spirit within them.   I said, "Of whom should you be afraid?"  No one and no thing.  I have given you authority over snakes and scorpions and fear itself.  Fear comes to destroy My children.  You have authority over it.
     Let Me educate you on your authority in the earth.  That knowledge will chase fear and panic away like the coward that it is.
     You are My child.  You have dominion.  Because I live in you, you have authority over anything that would harm you.  Use it for your good.
     Love, God
