I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review..

This title of this book first caught my attention. It seems that things pop up all the time that can lead us to be fearful. The subtitle did not appeal to me. I know that God is supernatural but this can be deceiving if this book were given as a gift or found in a secular book store.

Inside this book showed me how to discern what God is sharing with me and allow him to heal the inner me. It also leads to freedom and then overall overcoming fear.

This pathway is filled with some of the personal journey the author, Dawna De Silva, has led and has discover through counseling others. Each section is filled with Scriptures and questions to help the reader take what is written and apply it to their personal lives.

I found this book to be very helpful. ( )

Overcoming Fear: The Supernatural Strategy to Live in Freedom by [De Silva, Dawna]I was not sure what to expect from this book as the subject matter can be overwhelming at times. This book was not like that. It is filled with encouragement. The author, Dawna De Silva shared about discerning the voice of God so we can hear and be healed by Him. This leads freedom from fear. Much of her teaching uses personal stories as a counselor. There are also questions throughout to help the application of the teaching to life. Along with this there are quotations from other well-known authors and Scripture to help guide.

I highly recommend this book, but I would suggest reading a chapter at a time and letting it sink in.

Through preaching, speaking, authoring books, and ministering prophetically, author Dawna De Silva guides people, as well as churches and cities, into new vision and freedom. Along with her husband, Stephen De Silva, Dawna ministers with authority and gentleness, imparting hope and healing to those in need of spiritual strengthening. In her book, "Overcoming Fear: The Supernatural Strategy to Live in Freedom", she teaches, equips and activates readers in understanding the spirit realm, releasing within them the ability to rise above and overcome their personal fears. The book is divided into five sections : "Fear"; "Power"; "Love"; "Self-Discipline"; and "Application". Each individual subject is discussed, and then they are all combined and put into practice. With understanding of the doubts and concerns each of us have, Dawna De Silva advises that through taking control of fear, and no longer allowing fear to control us, we can all achieve a deeper connection with our own spirituality. I particularly enjoyed the glossary at the end of the book--just reading (and rereading) the definitions of terms like "Abundant Life", "Breakthrough", "Shifting Atmospheres", and "Spiritual Realm" provides food for thought and enlightenment.
