I have encountered the same thing for two years and just beginning to understand what it is that Ive been going through. the spirit of FEAR!! and with fear comes torment, panic, stress, worry and depression which are all "homeboys" that hang out with fear. But fear is the strong man and you must attack him. First by admitting that you are afraid and then trusting in God to heal you from it and then Using God's Word against fear. Find scriptures that pertain to fear in the bible and meditate on those scriptures and use them against fear. Also pray that God will reveal the specific type of fear that is trying to attack you. Just know that this trial is for the uplifting of the saints and for the word of the testimony. His word says that this sickness is not unto death but that the Son of God may be glorified through it and we overcome the devil by the blood of the lamb and by the word of the testimony. Perfect love cast out fear so in the name of Jesus I speak his PERFECT LOVE into your being right now. I bind that spirit of fear and cast him out and speak PEACE into your soul. And I will continue to be in prayer for you as God heals your wounded heart and mind. But know that YOU ARE SET FREE!!!!

It sounds as if you are suffering from Panic Attacks...a very real and scary condition; and one which I have suffered with for many years.

Mine were so bad that about 5 years ago I went to the Emergency Room 20+ times in one month thinking the same thing: "I'm having a heart attack."

My worries have decreased tremendously with prayer and my faith in the Lord. Although I am not cured, I can now enjoy activities, my job and do NOT have to take medications to control them anymore.

I have learned to control my Panic Attacks instead of my Panic Attacks controlling me...and I believe that my faith in the Lord and daily prayers have helped me get this far.

** Now remember, Panic Attacks are far different from general stress and worry (although Panic Attacks lead many to worry more).


Here is a quote from Pastor Rob Petterson:

"Turn your worries into prayer.
Don’t be anxious for anything
But in everything by prayer and petition
(with thanksgiving) let us make our request know to God.
And the peace of God that surpasses all of our understanding
Will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus


And when I think of all the time I’ve wasted as I’ve worried
--How the Word of God could have spoken to my fear.
I will spend the time to change my mind and
meditate on Truth and all my worries will disappear.


Here is a little something else for you:

Psalm 28:7
"The Lord is my strength and my shield; in Him my heart trusts, and I am helped..."

Psalm 23 (this one is popular with those who suffer from worry and anxiety)

Psalm 56:3
What time I am afraid, I will call upon the name of the Lord


Here is a link to a site that offers MANY verses used by those suffering from anxiety & stress:

http://www.holistic-online.com/Remedies/Anxiety/anx_healing-words.htm



I suggest the following:

1. GO SEE YOUR DOCTOR! This is paramount in determining what, if anything, may be wrong. Fears can develop into debilitating phobias if left unchecked!

2. Turn to the Lord for strength.

3. GO SEE YOUR DOCTOR!!

God bless you.

[Jeremiah 33:6]
Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.

Fear comes from Satan & you are believing his lies. The power that you have available to fight this fear is found in God's WORD. Praying alone is not working for you. Only God's WORD will give you the power you need to learn of his LOVE for YOU that will cast out all your fears.

Fear God & you will fear nothing else. Don't fear God & you will fear everything else.

Father, I pray that you would draw this fearful soul to your word & that your LOVE would conquer all the fears that plague this person each day. In Jesus Name.
