Fears destroys, fear enslaves, fear holds you back, fear is everywhere! Joyce's new book, "Do It Afraid," was written to help readers understand fear, and identify how it's ugly hold may be working in their lives. Many people are held back and progress towards their goals is stymied because they do not understand exactly how fear works. Joyce uses her direct, simple, and clear writing style that she is so well known for, to encourage readers to confront fear head on, change their usual mindset, and move forward in the face of fear. Satan wants nothing more than to destroy the plan that God has for our lives and he very effectively uses fear to get the job done! Joyce Meyer says, DO IT AFRAID! Don't give place to what Satan confronts you with, but rather do what you believe you should do, take ownership of your problems, and entrust your heart to God.
This book is divided into three parts which allows for a logical progression from understanding fear, to confronting it head on, and to maintaining the necessary mindset to walk in freedom. In order to further help readers to identify with success, Joyce uses scripture, quotes from prominent people, and relative testimonies in each chapter. After the Closing Comments there is a section titled, Empowering Scriptures to Help You Fight Fear, which provides a very nice finishing touch.
