Do Not Be Scared

Published: January 8, 2024 · Reviewed: March 16, 2024

JOSHUA 1:9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

The Bible often encourages us not to be scared.

It is absurd to be terrified when God is with you and for you, if you take a moment to consider this.

Humans have a tendency to forget. Perhaps this is the reason God commanded us to "Fear Not!"

Here are only a few instances.

LUKE 12:7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.

ISAIAH 41:13 For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.

SAY THIS: I will not be scared because I have faith that God will be on my side.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, We thank You for Your constant presence and guidance. Help us to remember Your words in Joshua 1:9, Luke 12:7, and Isaiah 41:13, reminding us not to fear, for You are with us. Strengthen our faith, Lord, so we may not be afraid, knowing You hold us in Your mighty hands. May we always remember our worth in Your eyes, more valuable than many sparrows. We declare, we will not be scared, for we trust in Your promise to help us. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
