FEAR NOT!

FEAR NOT!

   “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.” Isaiah 41:10

   1. “Fear not, for I am with you”

   God commands us not to fear—not because the problems are small, but because He is present. His presence is the reason for our peace.

• Psalm 23:4 – “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”

• Matthew 28:20 – “And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

• Hebrews 13:5 – “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

   2. “Be not dismayed, for I am your God”

   In the face of chaos or threats, we must not be confused or discouraged, because He is our sovereign God.

• Psalm 46:1–2 – “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth gives way…”

• Exodus 14:13 – “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord…”

   3. “I will strengthen you”

   When we are weak or discouraged, God Himself strengthens us to keep going.

• 2 Corinthians 12:9 – “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.”

• Philippians 4:13 – “I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.”

• Psalm 18:32 – “It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect.”

   4. “I will help you”

   God doesn’t just watch us — He intervenes, and comes to our aid at the right time.

• Psalm 121:1–2 – “I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord…”

• Isaiah 41:13 – “For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, ‘Fear not, I am the one who helps you.’”

   5. “I will uphold you with My righteous right hand”

   The right hand represents God’s power and authority. He upholds us with justice, faithfulness, and strength that cannot be defeated.

• Psalm 63:8 – “My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.”

• Isaiah 40:29–31 – “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak… those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength…”

• Psalm 37:24 – “Though he falls, he shall not be cast headlong, for the Lord upholds him with His hand.”
