When you are Afraid

 

“I will never desert you, nor will I forsake you.” Thus we may say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid; what can man do to me?”

 

Hebrews 13:5b,6

 

For the sake of his own great name the Lord will not abandon his people, since the Lord himself chose to make you his people.

 

1 Samuel 12:22

 

Fear not, I am with you; be not dismayed; I am your God. I will strengthen you, and help you, and uphold you with my right hand of justice.

 

Isaiah 41:10

 

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Have faith in God and faith in me.

 

John 14:1

 

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

 

Psalm 147:3

 

Who will separate us form the love of Christ? Trial, or distress, or persecution, or hunger, or nakedness, or danger, or the sword? As Scripture says: “For your sake we are being slain all the day long; we are looked upon as sheep to be slaughtered.” Yet in all this we are more than conquerors because of him who has loved us. For I am certain that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor powers, neither height nor depth nor any other creature, will be able to separate us from the love of God that comes to us in Christ Jesus, our Lord.

 

Romans 8:35-39

 

Since the Lord, your God, is a merciful God, he will not abandon and destroy you, nor forget the covenant which under oath he made with your fathers.

Be brave and steadfast; have no fear or dread of them, for it is the Lord, your God, who marches with you; he will never fail you or forsake you.

 

Deuteronomy 31:6

 

Though the mountains leave their place and the hills be shaken, My love shall never leave you  nor my covenant of peace be shaken, says the Lord, who has mercy on you.

 

Isaiah 54:10

 

God is our refuge and our strength, an ever-present help in distress.

 

Psalm 46:2
