Listen to full episodeFear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) – We all struggle with fear. Whether that’s fear of failure, fear of losing something we hold dear, fear of not starting something, or fear of the unknown. Most fear resides in our head when we doubt ourselves. That allows Satan to open the door wider and whisper more lies to us causing more FUD. FUD will come and go. It’s a combination of being stuck in our heads and lies from the enemy. Bring God into your struggles with FUD. Further your relationship by opening the door to the Lord, wait for the Holy Spirit to move with you, and then watch Satan's door close. · What fears are you now struggling with? · What fears do you need help letting go that prayer, family and friends, Men's Alliance or Church staff can help with? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
