Studies have shown that a grown trend in treating depression and how applying the word of God as a therapeutic method can bring restoration to the mind.

"Religiously integrated CBT adheres to the same principles and style of conventional CBT and uses many of the same tools. What is unique to religiously integrated CBT is the explicit of the client’s own religious tradition as a major foundation to identify and replace unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce depressive symptoms. When a client discusses symptoms and reactions to symptoms, therapists frame this material in terms of traditional CBT models and listen with a “third ear” for how this material can also be framed within a religiously integrative CBT model."

These methods if applied can be used as interventions toward replacing fear.
Ask and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For everyone that asketh receive and he that seek finds and to him that knock it shall be opened. Matthew 7:7-8
