The spirit of fear is one of the primary and most important door openers for other demonic spirits. This spirit can take various shapes, but no matter what kind of fear spirit it is, its aims are obvious. Its goal is to keep you from completing God's plan for your life; from living a joyous, spirit-led existence in which you contribute to others out of an abundance of love. It will give you nightmares and keep you awake at night. It will prevent you from leaving your house or healing from previous mental and physical scars. For instance, the dread of discarding something, which could be anything from collections to clothing to rubbish. These folks have been branded “hoarders,” and you can tell when you meet one. And getting rid of their belongings (even rubbish) is akin to amputating a leg for them. It is really traumatic and terrifying for them. This fear is brought on by tragedy, most commonly the death of a loved one, but any experience can bring this spirit of fear upon a person.

What is the biblical meaning of fear?
The Hebrew term yirah (pronounced yir-ah) is translated as “awe” in the Bible. It is frequently translated as dread, although it can also indicate regard, respect, or worship. But make no mistake: yirah is closely linked to the word ‘trembling.'
When Moses implored God to show him His magnificence, he was overcome with fear (yirah) because he couldn't see it for fear of dying. Moses was unable to see God in person. When Moses descended Mount Sinai, the Israelites were overcome with terror (yirah); they were so disturbed that they vowed with one voice to do whatever the Lord instructed.
The translation of yirah in English has a similar origin. Old Icelandic agi, Swedish aghi, and old Danish augh are examples of early Scandinavian words denoting fright, dread, commotion, discipline, and restriction.
