1

Fear may whisper, “You will lose it,”

Faith declares, “God will provide.”

Fear looks only at the moment,

Faith sees promise far and wide.

Chorus:

Faith over fear, I will believe,

Trusting the One who will not leave.

My giving is worship, my heart is Yours,

Secure forever, love that endures.

2

Fear says, “Hold back, keep it hidden,”

Faith says, “Release, watch God move.”

Fear counts coins with anxious measure,

Faith rests in His matchless love.

3

Fear looks down at empty tables,

Faith looks up to heaven’s store.

Fear forgets the hills of plenty,

Faith recalls the Lord of all.

4

Fear will fade when faith is rising,

Trusting Christ, our hope, our song.

He sustains what we surrender,

Faith in Him makes weak hearts strong.

The Connection between Faith and Gratitude

🧶Devotional Teaching

Many believers want to give, but fear holds them back. Fear of lack. Fear of the future. Fear of not having enough. Fear whispers, “If you give, you will lose.” But faith declares, “If you give, God will provide.”  

Giving is an act of faith. It is trusting God with what you have. It is believing that He is your provider. It is choosing faith over fear.  

🌼 Fear focuses on what you lose.  

🍁 Faith focuses on what God can multiply.  

🍇 Fear looks at the bank account.  

🌀 Faith looks at the God who owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10).  

🏝️  Fear says, “Hold back.” 

🍘 Faith says, “Release it and watch God move.”  

🤚 God never fails those who trust Him. He multiplies what we release. He sustains what we surrender. He honors those who honor Him.  

📜 Encouraging Scripture

 Isaiah 41:10 — “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

In Jesus’ name I worship, Amen."
