Hebrews 13:6
So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”

Fear is one of the enemy’s most effective tools, and he uses it constantly to keep you from giving your fullest potential to God. There are plenty of things to be afraid of in this world, but our Father tells us time and time again that none of them are worth fearing. Scripture says that this life is but a breath compared to Heaven, but still we fear the things that threaten us in this blip of a lifetime. Mere man can’t separate you from God, and they cant steal His saving grace either. If you hold fast to the Lord, nothing in this temporary world is worth fearing… so live boldly for Him, and be a shining light unto the world.

Romans 8:31
What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

It often feels like as Christians, we are facing life at a disadvantage. The world today is indifferent and even hostile toward our faith and the Word of God; but that shouldn’t stop you. The Almighty is on your side, and if He is for you, who can be against you? How can the enemy possibly compare to the Lord? Fear is meant to chain God’s children down, but through the power of the Holy Spirit, we know that those chains are hollow and brittle.

Romans 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.

When our Savior left this earth, He gave as a very important commandment: to spread Christ’s love and the message of the gospel to everyone we can reach. It’s His will that none should perish, but unless a person accepts the gift of salvation, there is no hope after this life. Only through Christ’s blood can someone be made new in the eyes of God, which is why you should never be ashamed to share what it means to be born again. The love of Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross is available for everyone, but it’s up to you, His witness, to plant the seeds.

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.

One of the greatest things about our God is that He is always with you. No matter how far you travel, no matter how bad things are or how insignificant you feel, the Lord is with you no matter what. In this passage, after the Lord has told Joshua that he will be the one to lead the Israelites, He commands Joshua to be strong and courageous. The Lord your God is with you wherever you go, and the same is true for us today. Be a bold servant of Christ, ready and willing to do whatever it is He has in store, remembering that whatever happens, you won’t be alone.

2 Timothy 1:7
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

When you think “Christian” the first thing you envision should never be “fearful.” As a child of God, paid for by the blood of Jesus and promised an eternal place in Heaven, you have nothing to fear. The Holy Spirit residing in your heart isn’t a spirit of fear, but of power, of love, and self-discipline. As representatives of Christ, you can be bold like He was, proclaiming the truth of the gospel and sharing the love of God with everyone who needs it. Trust that the Lord has a plan, and that He will equip you for your part in it.

Revelation 21:4
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.

When sin and death entered the world, so did sorrow, pain and grief; but this world is temporary. The Word describes the life we live as “but a breath” compared to eternity in Heaven, and God promises that when you get there, every tear will be wiped away. It’s why He sent His son Jesus to overcome the world. Hold on to this promise, because no matter what you face in this lifetime, your Father who loves you will make everything right for all eternity.
