"The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship" Romans 8:16.
God never leads you to bondage. He does not even cause you to fear. The fear of the Lord isn't a slaverish state that causes you to run away from Him. No, the work of the Spirit in you is that you want to get closer to Him. You are His son/daughter. You are the family of God. You are the citizen of the kingdom of Heaven. You should not be afraid, but come boldly to God with whatever question, request, prayer and etc. you might have. He is waiting for you as a father is waiting for his kids to come home. Take courage, and remember, He does not send fear to your heart. He sends peace, love, joy, and courage. Spend more time with the Holy Spirit to get more of the good stuff God has prepared for you. And get rid of fear. It is not your inheritance. The kingdom of God is!

Do not be afraid
Psalm 27:1: “The Lord is my light and my salvation — whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid?”
Apart from ‘healthy’ fear of the Lord we do not have to be afraid of anything. Nothing and nobody should scare us. If you are his what you should be afraid of? God is your protector. He takes care after your problems and worries. People of the world have no hope and they are scared of multitude of things. They are afraid of diseases, getting fired from work, marriage problems, death and etc. If you are a Christian you are in the hands of a good and merciful God who loves you and wishes you all the best. Do not be afraid!
