You would be hard-pressed to find a more well-known passage in the Bible than the 23rd Psalm. We, too, can take confidence in the fact that God has equipped us for the tasks He has set out, and His presence will go before us. On top of that, He promises His presence-the most meaningful provision possible. The Lord promises Joshua that if He gives a command, He will also provide the means to achieve it. Not only are there dangers in the land, but it hasn’t always been easy to keep Israel aligned and on task. There is a lot for him to be concerned about. Joshua is preparing to lead God’s people into the promised land. Do not be afraid do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.
Let’s examine 20 Bible verses about fear. The Lord wants us to trust in Him, and as we do so, fear has less influence over our lives. But if we’re not careful, it can become a default lens that colors how we see the world. Most of these frightened men who abandoned Jesus during His arrest went on to preach the gospel-even though it would eventually cost them their lives.įear is an entirely natural response to dangerous and confusing situations. Throughout the Gospels and Acts, we watch the disciples transformed from fear-filled followers of Jesus to intrepid proclaimers of the good news.
Do not be afraid, Zechariah (Luke 1:12-14).You of little faith, why are you afraid? (Matthew 8:23-27).Each day has enough trouble of its own (Matthew 6:33-34).Worrying won't add a moment to your life (Matthew 6:26-27).
Do not fear I am with you (Isaiah 41:8-10).The righteous will never be shaken (Psalm 112:6-8).They cried out to the Lord in their trouble (Psalm 107:28-30).Under his wings, you will find refuge (Psalm 91:4-5).When I'm afraid, I trust in You (Psalm 56:3-4).God is our refuge and our strength (Psalm 46:1-3).He delivered me from my fears (Psalm 34:4-8).
