Fear is Only an Emotion, Learn to Master it!
Deuteronomy 31:8 “He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
Fear is just an emotion, I am guessing that in the original language of the Bible the meaning is not to give in to the fear.
I believe this because Jesus Christ wept great drops of blood from fear right before He went to the cross.
Fear cannot be avoided it is an emotion that comes up without any thinking process as a fight or flight response to danger.
We must not allow it to motivate our actions or attitudes, it must never control us.
And I do believe we have less fear the more we do something difficult, as though our fear diminishes as we become familiar with something. When we know Christ has our back always we are less fearful but not entirely absent of fear.
It does not take courage to do that which we do not fear. Courage is doing what is necessary and right in spite of our fears.

Do Your Part!
Do you want your joy back? Stop listening to the news! I am doing my part, I am not listening to the media and their lies.
The Media Fear Mongering
The media is using a ploy that works on lots of people except those who understand what they are doing. They are inciting people to rage against one another on behalf of their own agenda by saying it is selfish to resume life outside their homes.
They are even using lies such as "you might be responsible for someone else's death. How do we harm those who choose to stay home if we are out and about? If they are in their homes we cannot reach them.
It is very selfish and fear bound to say that everyone should stay home and go into poverty because someone else might get sick.
This is the very ploy the media is using. If they can get the fearful public to apply pressure to the wise ones to feel guilt over doing what makes good sense, everyone will walk around full of shame that they suggesting doing the right things.
This is classic narcissism, accuse the "good sense" people of being selfish to intimidate them into submission to their fears.
If you are fear bound about this virus then you should stay in your own homes. If someone else is not fear bound then you have no right to dictate whether or not they leave their homes.
We are seeing much narcissism being demonstrated in our day, irrational mocking, demeaning, and intimidating to control others. Narcissists are famous for ridiculing people into doing what they want, but refuse to dialogue or be accountable for their own actions and words.
We are forced to remain at home most of the time now, its become the law. However no one can make us live in fear, we make that choice ourselves.
Read Acts 16:16-40 to understand the mentality of the born again believer who trusts in Christ every day.
