7 Biblical Truths to Overcome Fear of the End Times
(By Cody Archer) Do the words “anti-Christ,” “mark of the beast,” “bowls of wrath,” “wars,” “famines,” stir up fearful emotions in you? If so, you are not alone. Wrong beliefs and illiteracy on these subjects can produce anxiety and confusion about the future. When this happens, our tendency is to avoid the subject entirely. From Genesis to Revelation there are 150 chapters where the primary focus is on the
events surrounding end times’ prophecy. God purposely gave us an ample amount of information about the last days so that we would be both assured of His ultimate victory (John 16:33) and of His commitment in helping us be overcomers (Rev 12:11). These seven truths will help you stand with inner peace concerning the coming days of difficulty.

7 Biblical Truths to Overcome Fear of the End Times

Do the words "anti-Christ," "mark of the beast," "bowls of wrath," "wars," "famines," stir up fearful emotions in you? If so, you are not alone. Wrong beliefs and illiteracy on these subjects can produce anxiety and confusion about the future. When this happens, our tendency is to avoid the subject entirely.
From Genesis to Revelation there are 150 chapters where the primary focus is on the events surrounding end times' prophecy. God purposely gave us an ample amount of information about the last days so that we would be both assured of His ultimate victory (John 16:33) and of His commitment in helping us be overcomers (Rev 12:11).
These seven truths will help you stand with inner peace concerning the coming days of difficulty.
1. Repent for Lack of Trust
The root of fear is usually connected to our lack of trust in God. When we recognize this in our lives, we must repent, choose to believe and ask God to increase our faith (Luke 17:5). He is a good, trustworthy Father who loves to look after us. He will do the impossible with our mustard seed of faith.
2. You Are Chosen
God chose you and loved you first (John 15:16; 1 John 4:18-19). By faith we receive His free gift of grace and mercy (Eph. 2:4-9). No amount of human work or striving can save us. When God chooses you and seals you with His Spirit, there is nothing that can separate you from Him (Rom. 8:35-39). You are secure in His embrace. His grace alone empowers us to overcome Satan, our flesh, the world and the difficulties of the end times.

3. Yeshua's Leadership is Perfect
Words like "granted" or "was given authority" repeatedly appear through the book of Revelation (22 times). God allows Satan and the Antichrist to do their evil will (Rev. 6:4; 13:5,14). God is never surprised or caught off guard. He is all knowing, all powerful and will use the schemes of Satan for His own purposes. Yeshua will never make a mistake in His leadership. He is our good Shepherd and can be fully trusted (Luke 12:7). Even the amount of tribulation He allows us to experience will not be more that we can bear (1 Cor. 10:13) and will ultimately prepare us and purify us (Dan. 11:35; Rev. 19:7) to rule with Him in the age to come (Rev. 20:6).
4. The Church is Yeshua's Highest Priority
In Revelation chapter one Yeshua is seen in the midst of seven lampstands, which are a symbol of seven churches in Asia. In His right hand were seven stars, which symbolized the seven congregational leaders of these churches (Rev. 1:12-13, 20; 2:1). Before God revealed the end time judgments to come, He first revealed Yeshua's nearness to His church (ekklesia). Not only is He in their midst but He holds them in His hand. By knowing this, can we be prepared for the rest of the events through the book of Revelation. Yeshua's highest priority is His church (Matt. 16:18) and He will never leave or forsake us (Heb. 13:5).

5) Supernatural Protection and Provision
We see the Jewish people’s Exodus out of Egypt as a prophetic pattern for the end times (Micah 7:15). While the Egyptians were being struck with flies, boils, darkness… the Jewish people were set apart and protected in Goshen (Ex 8:22-23; 9:4; 8:11; 10:21-23). God’s end time judgements are for removing evil from the planet, not wiping out the saints.
Not only did God set apart and protect His people in Goshen, but also supernaturally provided water, manna and quail for forty years in the wilderness. During a drought God provided Elijah with food by a raven (1 Kings 17). Yeshua multiplied food and fed thousands (Matt 14:13-21). This provision pattern will continue through the end times (Heb 13:8).
6) Outpouring of the Holy Spirit
When difficulty increases so does supernatural anointing and guidance. “It shall come to pass in the Last days, says God, that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh…” (Acts 2:17-21). This outpouring will come when major signs and wonders are seen right before the great and awesome day of the Lord. This means we can expect a massive increase in anointing, prophecy, dreams and visions during the tribulation. God will be prophetically showing us what He is about to do (Amos 3:7), and how we should respond. He cares about the small details of our lives and knows what we need (Matt 6:8).
7) Beauty of Yeshua
Along with increased pressures and the Holy Spirit being poured out, there will be an ever-increasing revealing of the beauty of Yeshua. Concerning the end times, Isaiah 4:2 says, “…the Branch of the Lord [Yeshua] shall be beautiful and glorious.” Haggai 2:7 calls Yeshua the “Desire of all nations.” As we continue to seek and behold Yeshua, the Holy Spirit will progressively reveal His beauty and glory to our hearts in unprecedented ways. This will lead to profound fascination, awe, longing and unshakable dedication to Him. The love and affection for Him in the heart of His bride will be stronger than death (Song of S. 8:6). We will not be afraid to die because we know that immediately after death we will be without pain and sorrow in His glorious presence forever!
Lord help us to not ignore the seriousness of the days ahead. Help us to be sober, humble and diligent as we search your word and heart concerning the future. Amen.
There are more truths we could add like:
the power of God’s word to keep us from deception (John 8:31-32),
the glory of God shining on His people when deep darkness is on the earth (Is 60:1-2)
we are God’s sheep and no one is able to snatch us out of His hand (John 10:27-30)
I would love to hear from you. Please share in the comments below what you would add to this list?
