Do Not Fear
With the ever-increasing trials and difficulties, rumors of war, violence, deception by government, and intentional lying by those in authority, you should not fear mankind.
Do not fear!
God says “Do not fear” hundreds of times throughout the Bible. But what does that mean?
God wired our brains to experience fear. It is a primary emotion. There is a reason and purpose for our fear as we respond to triggering stimuli.
When God says, “Do not fear” he is not commanding us to shut off a part of our brain. His model citizen isn’t an emotionless and stoic robot.
The real issue God wants us to wrestle with is where we go when we fear. Where do you go with your fears? How do you deal with them?
Simply put, God wants us to come to him. Fear can paralyze us. Yet when we “fear” in the presence of God, God help us take the next step of faith even in the midst of our fear!
Unfortunately, no one will be able to escape fear in this sinful and broken world. It is real. It can be paralyzing. It is powerful.
But God is more powerful.
He has the power and desire to be with us in the midst of our fears.
Remembering this will enable to us to take the next step of faithfulness in our lives. How? Because God is with us. We can continue to fight to believe Jesus is more in and through our fears thanks to his presence with us.
Below are 15 verses to put our fears into perspective.
Memorize them. Reflect on them. Write them down. Discuss them. Sing them.
May these verses give all of us perspective and reminders of God’s presence with us in and through our fears…
