“FEAR NOT”
When I was growing up, there was a Cartoon Character I watched often on TV and the name of the show was “Underdog.”
Underdog’s famous quote was, “There’s no need to fear, Underdog is here!”
Underdog’s famous quote was, “There’s no need to fear, Underdog is here!”
Today, I’m sharing this quote with you because many of us fear what is, or what we think is about to happen in our lives and in our country. We have fear, about our jobs, about our income, about our housing situation, about change, etc. etc.
But the true reality is, if you have Jesus in your life, there is no reason for me, you, or us to Fear!
Why? The word “Fear Not” is repeated 365 times in the Bible?
“Fear not!” is the most repeated command in the Bible. In fact, it’s been said that there are 365 “Fear nots” in the Bible — one “Fear not” for every day of the year! Lloyd Ogilvie in Facing the Future without Fear even said there are 366 “Fear nots” in the Bible, one for every day of the year, including Leap Year!
Some scriptures that include “fear not” are: Isaiah 41:10 (“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand”), Joshua 1:9 (“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go”), Deuteronomy 31:6 (“Be strong and courageous, do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you”).
The key things to remember about these scriptures:
It provides us Reassurance from God:
These verses emphasize that God is always present and will provide strength and support, so there is no need to fear.
It Calls for us to have courage:
