I will not fear
"You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,"
Every moment of your day, day or night, waking or sleeping, God is present with you. You need not fear! There are so many things that are out of our control, but we can make a deliberate choice to take hold of God's promises and believe them. The alternative, entertaining and dwelling on fearful thoughts is also a choice, but we can choose to replace fear with faith in God and His word. In fact, we are encouraged, even commanded in all of scripture NOT to fear. The opposite of fear is faith! When we renew our minds and meditate on the reality of our Creator and the faithfulness of His word, fear is dispelled. God's great love for us, shown most dramatically at the cross, (Romans 5:8) proves that no matter the darkness or evil surrounding us, God and His word triumphs! Victoriously rising to life again, Jesus fulfilled all of God's promises to deliver us from our enemies: sin, death, and Satan. The apostle John spoke of God's great love for us, asserting that "perfect love drives our all fear." Knowing who God is - the Almighty, Sovereign, personal God of creation - brings comfort and peace of mind in the midst of any trial.
No matter what comes against you, day or night, take hold of this promise! God is true to His word and He will never fail you!
