Scripture of the Day: Fear Who?

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.

This verse could have easily said, “I will fear evil” instead of “I will fear no evil.” To be fearful is our choice. We can have peace knowing God is with us or, be fearful (which is a form of doubt) and believe God is not with us.

We tend to place ourselves in fear with our speech. With phrases such as, “I’m afraid if I don’t” or “It scares me to think” we are destined to have fear reign in our lives.

To those who believe fear is natural or okay 2 Timothy 1:7 tells us God did not give us fear. If fear did not come from God, then fear must have come from Satan. Revelations 21:8 tells us that the “fearful” will enter the lake of fire. So, a little fear will literally kill you.
Trust God, and Be Not Afraid.
