James tells us that we must be partakers in the sufferings and self- denial of Christ, so that we might become compassionate, enabling us to feel the infirmities of others. By this, we develop a faith sufficient to meet their needs. Faith works by love, which is the bond of perfection, because it fulfills God's laws by thinking no evil, thus eliminating condemnation from the heart, which, in return, releases faith, so that it might go into action in our behalf as it commands God concerning the work of His hand. When you fear, you waver. Don't be weary in thought, and don't be fearful, but refuse to fear.
Fear is faith in reverse.
It destroys, for Satan works through unbelief, but right believing is faith, and God's Spirit works through faith. Let us accept, in all joy and confidence, without fear, God's promises and grace. Do not fear interpretations of tongues, reports, people, things or happenings. Try to please God and man. By this, you will assure your heart before God, and you will have faith in God to answer prayer.
