"Perception under Pressure, Reactiveness, and Delusion caused by fear" (Revised 2-22-2023
4:15am)
"We wanted a great deal of love to go into this segment because it is directly tied to the Biblical promises of New Covenant fulfillment leading us into
thriving spiritual life of the interventions: Divine order, Divine Orchestration, and Divine planning work we get to experience inwardly at the throne
of God without fault or blame; and outwardly in a healed expression impacting the testimony of how God reveals Himself- through your genuine faith- to the world.
It is through confusion, distraction, heaviness, deception and delusion, false identities, wounded places- leading to blindness and spiritual decay- we are seeing self-led interruptions to
this process, and external darkness flooding these spaces which God originally designed and designated to produce a generated fear of God. In which He moves, and lives in us as He bears
witness of the Truth supporting a true move of God we see in revived portions converging on the breaking, restoring and sanctifying work He does corporately, and individually. A life of prayer
realized and practiced is the foundation of these advanced interventions which cannot be overstated enough. Because it is through the fear of God we are being introduced to genuine touches of
spiritual power changing us from the inside out. Exposing every core of dysfunction before God before His perfect design."

(WIP) Later revisions will be presented as it progresses.
Forward,
A powerful message about overcoming fear in prayer was shared in our recent meeting. The message focused on three key points: Perception under pressure, Reactiveness, and Delusion caused by fear.
These three factors can cause us to drift from God's voice and to conform to fear. We must recognize the truth that God has reconciled Himself to us and is calling us to embrace this reality. In
confronting our fears, we identify the true face of our inward struggle in the presence of God. We must walk in a restored expression and testimony, a true witness in our lives when we let go of
fear. We must learn to discern God's voice from the chaos of our struggles and embrace the solid foundation of His promises, making sound decisions in response to fear. We must surrender our
fears to God and receive redemptive healing. Delaying or withholding these calls in prayer keeps us in reproach and hinders our progress.
Reminders:
Definition: Our red flag response, or even keel- balanced response to prayer is we make the decision to conform to what Christ is saying, or our defenses for self-survival cause us
negative pressure to conform of what fear is causing in our drifting from His voice. It's in this process we give up the enriching values, goodness and direction God is actually using to direct
us to Himself in all things. Fear is an aversion to the completeness of the Word, confirmation of the word and validity to the voice of God over the Word. Our prayers notes are illustrating how
prayer confronts the effects of these pressures when we are faithful and realistic as the expectations we receive from God, and the realities of biblical truth we hold over ourselves. ~Kevin
Simon
In our prayer today, we wish to discuss three vital things:
Our perception of pressure and how it pushes us to conform to fear, thus impacting our daily responses.
Our reactive nature towards situations where we lack control, resolve, or due diligence, making it challenging to respond adequately. The delusional state we find ourselves in, manifesting in
both unfounded and founded fears based on unstable ground, leading to the challenge of fear. This includes the concept, perspective, and control mechanism that influences our response to
fear.
1. Perception under pressure to conform to fear in our response to what is daily progressing
2. Reactiveness to a indescribable lack of control, resolve or due diligence escaping our grasp of what is impacting our responses the most.
3. A state of delusion representing in unfounded, or founded fears based on an unstable footing affected by the challenge of fear. Thus: (a) Concept
(b) Perspective (c) Control mechanism
If we are handling the dynamics of faith toward New Covenant these thoughts should be referenced in mind when we are triggered, pressured, overwhelmed or feeling inadequate before the storm:
- A. God's reconciliation to us and embracing it.
- B. Choosing to live in God's response and through His reconciliation in response to the pressure of fear.
- C. Breaking the cycles that keep us from what God is capable of doing and recognizing the fear that prevents us from receiving Christ.
- D. Placing our fear at the feet of Christ, which inspires genuine reverence and a desire to seek God.
- E. Not delaying or holding onto these calls in prayer to avoid remaining in a reproachful path.
It is critical to note that the pressure to conform to fear has caused us to drift from God's voice. However, we can choose to conform to what God is saying instead. We must recognize the truth that God has reconciled Himself to us and is calling us to embrace this reality. We must affirm that we will live in God's response and through His reconciliation in response to the pressure of fear. The cycles that keep us from what God is capable of doing will no longer be effective. The fear of not making a decision to receive redemption, reconciliation, and to be right with God must be overcome. We must overcome the fear of not wanting to go through with God's plan, and we must break the cycle of "peddling back." Anything that prevents us from obeying God is restored through the merits of Christ, and we must choose not to be defined by fear's deception. We must confront it in a healthy perspective and overcome it fully at the cross.
When we yield what was already overcome at the cross in God's plan of redemption, it frees us from places under obligation, fear of striving, separation, and delusion, which cannot produce Christ. We must surrender all our fears and give them to God. Holding onto our fears will only make our burdens heavier, and we must be convinced that holding onto our pain and fears means holding onto everything but the voice of God. In confronting our fears, we identify the true face of our inward struggle in the presence of God. We must walk in a restored expression and testimony, a true witness in our lives when we let go of fear.
It is essential to understand how the voice of God distinguishes from the face of struggle and how it interferes with His expression on those places of failure becoming disturbed when we need to
return to a solid representation of biblical reality getting hold of us on a foundational level. This means recognizing the power available to us to make right decisions, where it is designed to
go, and what obedience looks like in His promises. It is said that good presentation leads to good decisions. Therefore, let us learn how to discern God's voice from the chaos of our struggles
and embrace the solid foundation of His promises, making sound decisions in response to fear.
PRAYER NOTES POINT BY POINT AS OFFERED TODAY 2/20/2023 4:15-5:15pm
We write them down methodically on each point, then we allow God to address them over our progression for those in our platform, and for our own lives:
- Recognize the truth of God reconciling Himself to us they are being called right now to embrace.
- "I'm going to live in God's response and through His reconciliation in response to the pressure of fear."
- Cycles would no longer be effective keeping people from what God is able, and is desiring to do presently.
- The fear of not making a decision to receive redemption, reconciliation to be right with God.
- The fear of not wanting go through with God's plan "peddling back" would be broken.
- Everything that causes them to reject Christ is indeed the fear preventing them from receiving Christ; God is highlighting the dynamics where change is taking place for them specifically distinct- no longer defined on these terms which by groundwork in fear, separate them from the cross uniting them to God.
- Receive redemptive healing as a result of placing fear at the feet of Christ. It would inspire genuine reverence and desire to seek God. God reconciles the power of shame and fear and give us the power of His response over the decision to give fear to Him.
- Delaying or holding our on these calls in prayer keeps us in reproach in the path of whatever would affect the path they are currently on- with God's reconciliation drawing them in, they can remain unaffected by change, but more connected to the who changes- frees and draws toward a redemptive purpose over the response of fear. The path of healing serving the design Christ has for us, not ones of ourselves.
- "Fear is telling us we don't have the power to obey, live for God or serve Him."
-
Anything that would prevent us from obeying God is restored on the merits of Christ over the decision to not be defined by fear's deception:
"A deception we've talked at length we use as a cover in human weakness to remain unchanged- non-surrendered; We hide behind fear in our complaints and piety to remain unaffected by
Gospel power- when such power cancels the arguments- causing us to see the force of fear what it truly is, how to confront it in a healthy perspective overcome at the Cross in
full."
The real picture these storms are revealing becomes dynamics of our interaction with God center stage.
We look at Christ- He faces the fear and in the decision we identify and confront the true face of our inward struggle in the presence of God. We receive and walk in a restored expression and
testimony of a true witness in our lives- when we let go of fear- is most timely a failing journey we may feel at first when we are handpicked out of a million only to be most uncertain,
unqualified, and ill-equipped regardless, God still says:
"Move forward and see what I do with every broken cry given into Me with a cry you receive that will never fail!
It is a journey that requires us to be brave, to trust in God's love and guidance, and to persevere in the face of adversity.
A Quote came to me in prayer: "Good presentation leads to good decisions."
Learn how the voice of God distinguishes from the face of struggle and how it interferes with His expression on those places of failure becoming disturbed when we need to return to a solid
representation of biblical reality getting hold of us on a foundational level. This means recognizing the power available to us to make right decisions- where it is designed to go, and what
obedience actually looks like in His promises. Combating a spirit of fear is not exclusively seeing the damage or negative effects but how strong God is compared to it.
Question review:
1. Can you expound on the nature of the internal conflicts that arise when we allow fear to dominate our thoughts and actions, and how these
conflicts relate to the fulfillment of the new covenant? How can we identify and address these conflicts in order to embrace the truth of God's reconciliation with us?
IDEAS:
The intricate interplay between the internal conflicts we encounter in the presence of God and the realization of new covenant fulfillment- dynamics of faith : fear and torment vs. Reconciliation
2. How does confronting our fears enable us to restore our relationship with God and align ourselves with His plan for our lives in the
context of the new covenant? In what ways can we overcome fear and embrace the reality of God's love and provision for us?
IDEAS:
A. The intricate process of confronting our fears and allowing ourselves to be restored to a harmonious relationship with God is a pivotal component in aligning ourselves with
His divine purpose for our lives. But how does this process connect with the concept of new covenant fulfillment? And how can we navigate this journey of confronting our fears through the
powerful, transformative force of prayer, underpinned by God's enduring love and redemptive plan, even when the pathway is arduous and our perception of His voice appears dim and indistinct
B. Prayerfully confronting our fears through God's love and redemptive plan, despite the pain and apparent challenge it poses to hearing
God's voice, can lead us to uncovering the multiple layers of deception and complex self-beliefs that hinder us from living a fulfilling life. Getting these into the open is getting us out the
retractive nature of victimhood in profound way insomuch as the subtle ways these lies were distorting who God is.
3. In what specific ways can fear hinder our progress and limit our ability to experience the fullness of new covenant fulfillment? Can you
provide examples of how surrendering our fears to God and embracing His promises can lead to greater freedom and fulfillment in our lives?
IDEAS:
A. The debilitating effects of fear: a 'barrier' to achieving the fullness of new covenant fulfillment in our lives. Practical examples of how confronting our fears can help us
overcome these barriers and move towards a more rewarding life. Practical steps to overcome our fears and experience the transformative power of new covenant fulfillment in our lives
B. Fear can be an insidious force, often serving as a barrier between us and the fullness of new covenant fulfillment that we so ardently
desire. Confronting our fears, however, can be the key to overcoming these barriers and unlocking the transformative power of new covenant fulfillment in our lives. By taking practical steps to
confront our fears, we can begin to shed the shackles that have held us back, allowing us to move forward with renewed purpose and vigor. Whether it's through prayerful reflection or seeking out
the counsel of wise mentors, we can begin to identify the root causes of our fears and address them head-on. Through this process, we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and our
relationship with God, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling and rewarding life. So let us be courageous in confronting our fears, knowing that the promise of new covenant
fulfillment awaits us on the other side.
Column 1: Themes and subjects that are often mishandled or misused
Definition: These are themes and subjects that are commonly misunderstood or misinterpreted, leading to negative outcomes or hindering progress towards new covenant fulfillment.
- Perception under pressure
Example: Perception under pressure is a common theme that is mishandled, where individuals can become reactive and allow their fears to control their thoughts and actions.
Definition: When our perception becomes distorted under pressure, leading us to negative thoughts and impulsive decisions based on fear, hindering our progress towards new
covenant fulfillment. When an individual is under stress or pressure, their perception of reality can become distorted, leading to negative thoughts and impulsive decision-making based
on fear. This can hinder one's progress towards new covenant fulfillment.
Example: Feeling overwhelmed at work and making hasty decisions based on fear of failure. An individual may feel pressure at work to meet a deadline and perceive it as a
sign of failure, leading to anxiety and negative self-talk.

- "When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy." - Psalm 94:19
"For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." - 2 Timothy 1:7
- Reactiveness
Definition: Reacting impulsively to fear creates more problems, leading to a negative cycle of thoughts and emotions, drifting us away from God's voice.
Example: Blaming others for our mistakes due to fear of being criticized. An individual may lash out in anger or defensiveness when faced with a fear of rejection, causing
damage to relationships and creating a cycle of negative emotions. When we react impulsively to our fears, we can create more problems for ourselves and those around us. This can cause us to
drift from God's voice and become more entrenched in our fears, leading to a downward spiral of negative thoughts and emotions.
Citation: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control." - Galatians 5:22-23
- Delusion caused by fear
Definition: Fear creates a distorted view of reality, causing us to exaggerate negative aspects of our situation, hindering our progress towards new covenant fulfillment.
Example: Believing that God doesn't care about us during a difficult time due to fear. An individual may fear failure to the point of believing they are incapable of
success, leading to a lack of effort and self-sabotage.
Citation: "For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." - 2 Timothy 1:7
Column 2: Themes and subjects that should be approached with a healthy perspective and mindset
Definition: These are themes and subjects that require a healthy perspective and mindset in order to achieve positive outcomes and progress towards new covenant fulfillment.
Definition: Approaching fear with the knowledge and understanding of God's truth of the new covenant, leading to a healthy mindset and fulfillment in life.
Example
Trusting in God's promises and standing firm in faith during difficult times.
Citation: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" - 2 Corinthians 5:17

Taking healthy steps to manage pressure, such as prayer, meditation, and seeking wise counsel, leading to clear perception and sound decision-making.
Example: Taking a break to pray and meditate when feeling overwhelmed at work.
Citation: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all
understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7
Intentional response:
Definition
Pausing and reflecting before responding to fear, seeking God's guidance to respond in a way that honors Him and brings about positive outcomes, leading to greater peace and fulfillment in life.
Example
Overcoming reactiveness is a theme that requires intentional reflection and seeking guidance from God in order to make sound decisions that align with His
will. Delusion caused by fear is a theme that can be overcome by renewing our minds with God's truth and focusing on His faithfulness and goodness. Responding to criticism with kindness
and understanding instead of defensiveness.
New covenant truth: It is important to remember that we have been given a new covenant through Jesus Christ, where we are no longer slaves to fear and can overcome it through His power and grace.

Delusion caused by fear
Definition
To combat delusion caused by fear, we must be vigilant in our thought life and actively seek to renew our minds with God's truth. Delusion caused by fear
can lead to a distorted view of reality, causing us to believe things that are not true or exaggerating the negative aspects of our situation. It can cause us to become discouraged and lose faith
in God's promises, hindering our progress towards new covenant fulfillment. By staying rooted in God's truth and resisting the lies of fear, we can overcome delusion and experience the freedom
and joy that comes from new covenant fulfillment.
Example
For instance, when faced with a difficult situation, such as a financial setback, fear may cause us to believe that we will never recover, that we are doomed
to a life of poverty, or that we are unworthy of financial abundance. This delusion can lead to negative self-talk and a defeatist attitude that prevents us from taking positive steps towards
financial recovery or seeking God's guidance for wisdom and direction. However, by renewing our minds with God's truth about abundance, provision, and His faithfulness, we can break free from the
delusion of fear and approach our situation with hope and faith in God's promises.
Citation
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God,
which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)
New covenant truth
In the new covenant, we are called to "take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ" (2 Corinthians 10:5). This means actively resisting
the lies of fear and choosing to renew our minds with God's truth. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we can overcome delusion caused by fear and experience the freedom and joy that comes from
living in new covenant fulfillment.
Pivotal Conclusion I've committed to in recent weeks:
"In the face of fear, it's important to remain grounded and vigilant, maintaining a clear perception even under pressure. Through prayer, fasting, and seeking wise
counsel, we can be empowered to discern the voice of God and follow His direction, even in the midst of the storm. As we remain faithful and obedient to God's leading, He will honor us with
breakthroughs, provision, and genuine moves of His Spirit. Unity is essential in this process, as we must guard against allowing fear to cause us to handle irreverently the fullness of God's plan
for our lives.
Recent evidence unfolding on our platform has put us in war mode, as we zealously and furiously pray with indignation against those who seek to harm the name of Christ in what He is building here. It's crucial to maintain unity and not quench the Spirit in our handling of God's work, even when fear threatens to distort our perception. Divine order, orchestration, and planning are at work, and we must remain faithful and obedient to God's complete work on our behalf expressed in everyday life as a token of His goodness, as we move forward in new covenant fulfillment."
THEMES:
The statement includes three prayer topics: Perception under pressure, Reactiveness, and Delusion caused by fear.
It emphasizes the need to recognize God's truth and embrace His response and reconciliation in response to fear.
The statement above emphasizes that fear is a deceptive force that prevents people from receiving Christ and obeying God.
It stresses the importance of giving our burdens to God and surrendering to the power of the Gospel to overcome fear.
It encourages us to let go of fear and trust in the voice of God to make right decisions. It promotes a solid representation of biblical reality and obedience to God's promises.
- Overcoming fear and finding true reconciliation with God
- The importance of yielding to God and giving our burdens to Him
- Perceiving and responding to pressure and fear in a healthy way
- The power of God's response and reconciliation over fear and shame
- Making right decisions through obedience to God's promises
- Recognizing and confronting our inward struggles in the presence of God
- Finding a solid representation of biblical reality
- Redemptive healing through surrendering to Christ at the cross

- Receiving Christ and uniting with God at the cross
- Recognizing the true voice of God and distinguishing it from the face of struggle
- Living in God's response and finding freedom from the force of fear
- Walking in a restored expression and testimony in our lives.
KEYS:
- Fear is telling us we don't have the power to obey, live for God or serve Him.
- We hide behind fear in our complaints and piety to remain unaffected by Gospel power
- Delaying or holding out on these calls in prayer keeps us in reproach
- Surrendering our fears to God and seeking His redemptive healing is vital for our spiritual progress, and failing to do so would only hinder us and lead to reproach
"Let go of everything that has been conquered at the cross through Christ's plan of redemption. Surrender all the areas of your life that are weighed down by obligation, the fear of
striving, and the delusion of separation that lead to conformity under pressure. These are the things that cannot produce Christ or answer the call for redemption, and they only add to the pains
that we endure in our flesh. The longer we remain hard-hearted and indecisive in the gospel, the more we become entangled by these negative forces."
CDCS RESEARCH, Kevin Simon.
Should you continue holding on to your burdens without surrendering them to God through non-committal, they will grow heavier and more difficult to bear. To be sure, if you persist in
clutching to the agony and distress that emanates from fear, you will be depriving yourself of the soothing and healing voice of the Christ, "Who says?" Therefore, it is imperative that you
cultivate the belief that clutching to the pain is tantamount to holding on to everything but God."
CDCS RESEARCH, Kevin Simon.
Quotes:
"In confronting our fears, we identify the true face of our inward struggle and that identity in Christ means the courageous step we must walk in a restored expression and
testimony, a true witness in our lives when we let go of fear."
"By confronting our fears, we are able to gain a deeper insight into our internal conflicts when we are in the presence of God that have outward results in undesired ways breaking the
definition as it were God's original design, keeping us blind to the reality of truth- not because we are incapable of just accepting facts, but privy these delusions acts as a departing from
God's true image and nature....This realization allows us to lead a restored life and bear witness to our true testimony in Him."
"We must affirm that we will live in God's response and through His reconciliation in response to the pressure of fear. The cycles that keep us from what God is capable of doing will no longer be
effective. The fear of not making a decision to receive redemption, reconciliation, and to be right with God must be overcome. We must confront fear in a healthy perspective and overcome it fully
at the cross."
STORY BOARD: "A Gift to our members." Amazing transitions and concepts I worked on all night.
