Do Not

Isaiah 41 says So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. 

Here again we are told:

Do not fear

Do not be dismayed

Fear really settles into our hearts when we forget God’s character, when we rely on our own strength to sustain us, or when we reach out to hold something other than His hand.

Sometimes we just need to remind ourselves that God is love, that he is our strength, and that it’s his hand we need to hold – in the darkest of the night.

Any other thought process is a lie.

Recognizing the truth and choosing to believe it will banish our fear.
