Hi All

In the Bible we can read several scriptures which tell us we need fear nothing because God is with us one of these scriptures is Isaiah 41:10 

“Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand”.Philippians 4:6 tells us “ Do not be anxious about anything” and in  Judges 1:9 we are told “for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go". As believers all we have to do is choose faith over fear and trust that God will strengthen us, protect us and deliver us from the fear of death “ Oh death where is your victory, Oh death where is your sting”(1 Corinthians 15:55)

Be Blessed and Encouraged.

No Need To Fear

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

(Psalm 27:1)

At some point in life we all experience fear, whether it is caused by health issues,going somewhere for the first time where we are unknown,or we could be struggling in a spiritual sense. When this happens we need only think back to people in the Bible who have also encountered fear and uncertainty, think of the disciples rowing on the sea of Galilee(Mark 6:48-49), David fighting Goliath(1 Samuel 17)and countless other examples where faith  was used to conquer fear. The role faith plays in overcoming fear can never be understated.

Joshua and Caleb were men of faith. When they and the other spies left Kadesh Barnea to enter the land of Canaan and inspect the land that God had given them, their cohorts were afraid. But not Joshua and Caleb. They didn’t let fear keep them from God’s plan for the people to enter the Promised Land. Nor did they let fear convince them to disobey His commands. While others rebelled against God, Joshua and Caleb remained steadfast in their faith in God and His promises. And they were eventually blessed because of it.(Numbers chapters 13-14).  The God who was with Joshua and Caleb is the same God who is with us today. Our God is all-powerful. He is with us no matter where we are or what we are experiencing so we have no cause to be fearful.
