There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
—1 John 4:18
A confident loving-trust in God cannot cohabit alongside destructive fear. Fear is the antithesis of love and the person who is fearful has not reached the mature love God desires in His children.

The immeasurable strength from the power-house of God's perfect love overwhelms every negative influence of fear. In the life of a believer, fear is rendered powerless by love, "for there is no fear in love." Love describes the character of God, for God is love, and when the love of God permeates a soul, no anxious thoughts can overwhelm the love of God within, "for the one who fears is not perfected in love" - their ability to love others has not reached the fulness of love.
What is the message of 1 John 4:18?
18 There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life - fear of death, fear of judgment - is one not yet fully formed in love. 19 We, though, are going to love - love and be loved.
