PSALM 91:16 "WIth long life will i satisfy him, and show him my salvation."(KJV)
God has assured you of longavity, what will you be doing for him during these years?, what will you give him in return?. Alexandre Dumas when he was asked "How do you grow old so gracefully?" replied and said "because i give all my time to it." if you are fifty and above, instead of date on a calender, let your age be measured with your spiritual progress.
Enoch lived for 365 years, Enoch walked with God all the days o f his life, he lived for God, he enjoyed God's presence daily and finally God took him away, he never knew death. What a glorious exit for Enoch. What about you?, how do you want your end to be. Are you banking on your old glory, accomplishments and exploits for God?, Joshua defeated 31 Kings, possessed their land and retired, he felt he had achieved a lot but God told him and still telling you today "...there remaineth yet much land to be possessed" (Joshua 13:1 KJV). Do you think there are no more people to preach to?.

How Do I confront My Fears?
To confront means to come Face to Face. It is the ability to face your enemy eye bulb to eye bulb and tell him or her, you can't stop me: am destined for greatness and i must get there.
Let Us Pray; Father in the name of Jesus, as we are about to study your word this hour, please grant to us an understanding heart, your spirit and the grace to be the doer of your word. Thank you dear lord, for in Jesus name we have prayed, Amen.
1 CORINTHIANS 2:5. "That your faith should not stand in the wisdom on men, but in the power of God."(KJV)Not By Power Or By Wisdom Of Man, But By Spirit and Power Of God
"One of the greatest breakthroughs in modern psychology is the law of Resersibility". Here is the way it works. Acting according to your feelings, consenting to your feelings with ease. Dallas Willard said "you can live opposite of what you profess, but can't can live opposite of what you believe". Your actions, the things you say and the way you do thing is an evidence of what you believe (As a believer your actions must match with your faith). Pick up Courage. "There are two kinds of courage, the first requires action. President Andrew Jack said, "Take time to deliberate but when the time for action arrives, stop thinking and go in. One man with courage makes a majority". The second kind of courage requires Patience, it calls for endurance, perseverance and longsuffering (which is the fruit of the spirit expected of every christ believer to manifest) Heb. 10: 36. After you have done your best and all that is required, there is still a call to wait on God, for you to get your desired result. Fear creates limitations between you, God and Success and it's about time you stand up to your fears, not by your power but by the word of God and say to it "enough". By strength shall no man prevail , it has nothing to do with your level of Education or ability,(Ecles. 9: 11) it is by the grace of God. 
ISAIAH 41: 10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. (KJV)
There are different kinds of FEAR. There is a kind of FEAR that warns you to keep off from Fire. Another kind of FEAR cultivates respect for God (Psalms 2: 11 , Proverds 1: 7). Oswald Chambers said, "when you fear God, you don't have to fear anything else" .
Are you feeling helpless, afraid of criticism from your parents or peers?, each time you want to do something new it springs up, always there hunting you. There is also the fear of failing, which could give birth to total failure if left undiscarded. Remember what Job said in the book of Job 2: 25 " for the thing which i greatly feared is come upon me..."(what will you do if that which you greatly fear come upon you now?)
There is also another kind of fear, which i consider to be the worst. The fear of unknown which is the creation of your imagination. What if i loose my Job, what if i loose my legs now, what if she dies now, what if! What if! What if!. God has assured you that he is and will always be with you, so why are you still afraid?, will God promise and not fulfill?. Fear Not! .
"Faith calls us out of our comfort zone to learn new skills and minister in different ways, but we get uptight". We ask our self "what if God asks me to do what i can't do..." do not rely on your understanding because it will fail you. God knew you before you were born, he chose you and when ever you are confronted with new challenges, He strengthens you by providing all necessary tools, just to prove to you that he is capable of doing it.
Friends, put your trust in God, fear no More. Since Faith is the Opposite and enemy of fear, i will encourage you to embrace FAITH.
God Bless You Real Good.
