When Fear Won’t Stop Talking, Do THIS

#ScottThomas #HauntedFaith #HandlingFear In this message, Pastor Scott Thomas continues the series "Haunted Faith" by revealing how to defeat fear when it won't stop talking in your head. Drawing from the story of King Hezekiah in 2 Kings, Pastor Scott lays out a powerful spiritual blueprint for putting fear on "Do Not Disturb," moving past intimidation, and stepping into God's peace. Fear may haunt you, but it needs your permission to hold you. Key Message Takeaways * Don't Answer the Ghosts of Fear: When the Assyrian spokesman Rabshakeh threatened Jerusalem, King Hezekiah commanded the people to remain silent and not answer him. Stop arguing with fear on its own turf—stay silent at the wall, but get loud in prayer. * Live Up to the Truth, Not Down to the Facts: Fear brings facts, but God's Word brings ultimate truth. Isaiah reminded Hezekiah not to be discouraged by intimidating words. Circumstances may be hard, but God's promises always have the final say. * Give Your Hate Mail to Jesus: When Hezekiah received a threatening letter from the enemy, he took it straight to the temple and spread it out before the Lord. Stop spiraling over bad news—hand your burdens directly to God, because if you don't let go, He won't fix it.
