Have any of you struggled with huge fear that cripples you - and effectively stops your faith for healing?? I keep going back to Mark 11, and to Psalm 24 and to 1 John 5:14 - all telling me about having faith, being delivered and God hearing me. But the fear becomes overwhelming and I struggle to stay in the spirit. Is there anyone out there that has been through this successfully?

Thank you all so much.
My fear is the doctor and the outcome of treatment if I’m not healed - it’s not death but it’s a disfigurement that will leave me feeling embarrassed and ashamed forever. So when I’m fearful it’s about having to go through that and then living with it forever.
I know I’m healed in my spirit- it’s just that the fear that I’ll be unable to manifest it, paralyses me.

Hola me hermano.......
If I may give a testimony with all glory to God..
In the early days of my faith I was always healed of so many things, unimportant to others, but important enough to be cared for by our blessed Father.
When I began to be older I lost the vision in one eye to macular degeneration, the wet type, most aggressive. Instead of concerning myself too much about it, I was given to thank god for this as though it were a gift and I offered Him the vision of the other eye, though I did confess I would prefer to have perfect vision again. The other eye began to do the same, and I thanked God, again confessing I would prefer to see. All this time my mind and my heart were referencing the many forefathers in the faith who were blidn or close to blind, this is why I thank God for this condition, being in such illustrious company and undeserving of such.
No, I do not believe for a NY moment you should welcome your particular illness with thanksgiving other than thanking God fore everythign always. I believe you may be healed, and I will pray to that end for you now and always.
Now, because I am old, wheever I have a new develpment in my health, I thank God for it, but I always pray others do not experience the sam. Now for the past five years or so I have experienced occasional paralysis in one arm and in the itger frin tune ti tune, -accirdubg ti nt dictir ut us dye ti -"artrosis cervical." This is is deteriorating bones. It is not just in the neck, but it is most bothersome from that area.
Everythingoccuring now I receive as another step up the ladder to the Throne, but only God knows all.
May you be well and always fearless. I am praying. It is sad for anyone to have medical or physical anomalies, but even worse when it is the younger folks. All blessing Jesus Christ...j
Te quiero siempre en JesuCristo.

If we are trusting in Christ as the ALL-sufficient means of our salvation (and not in works) then we can have confidence in our salvation/making it to heaven (Ephesians 2:8,9). 
1 John 5:11 - And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.
