And where might I find these words of comfort?
Nowhere else but in my Bible.
And I find the words and the meaning to not fear scattered all throughout it's pages.
Especially in the Old Testament and 5 books of the New Testament.
God must want me to know I needn't not worry myself.
I must have faith and trust and believe God at His Word. He has no reason to tell lies.
God is faithful. In Him I can believe. He gave His Word for me.
Some scripture references of God always telling the truth-
Numbers 23:19
1 Samuel 15:29
Titus 1:1-3
Hebrews 6:18
40 great scripture references about trust and trusting.
"Fear, you are on notice. You are no longer needed or welcome anywhere near me,
so out the door you go and don't bother coming back. I choose to fear not. I choose to
put my hope and my all in the one who is mighty. My soul and heart and my mind are
firmly planted in God's Word and in His might. Thank you Lord for doing everything
for me. For giving me victory through you. For saving me and giving me hope and a
future in heaven. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
God can emphatically be trusted without fail.
