When we live in the light of God’s love and we remember who we are and whose we are, fear has to leave. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love” ( 1 John 4:18). “There is no fear in love but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. Remember That God Is Bigger Than Your Fears When we change our focus to all He is, we begin to see a glimmer of hope. The battle is not about us, it is about Him. Not in an “I can do it” battle cry, but in a “God will do it” victory cry. When fear rises, raise up your light and your strength. Sometimes it is good to remember all God is to you. “The LORD is my light and my salvation Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life Of whom shall I be afraid?” ( Psalm 27:1). If you don’t like to sing or feel like your voice isn’t worth hearing, turn up the worship music in your home or car and let the music minister to your heart. If you are feeling afraid, weak, and alone, lift up this song of worship to our mighty God. There is never a wrong time to give God a song of praise. “The LORD is my strength and my shield My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I will praise Him” ( Psalm 28:6).

If you feel like you are being attacked on every side and like you can’t get out of the constant flow of struggles, this one is for you. “Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil” ( Ephesians 6:11). He is where you will find strength to make it. Let God hold your hand and proclaim the truth about who He is and what He does. He is steady and strong, always holding onto His children. While friends change, and family passes on, God stays the same. God is the only one who can hold you up through the fears of life. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand” ( Isaiah 41:10). “Fear not, for I am with you Be not dismayed, for I am your God. If you are struggling with those late-night fears, get ahold of this one and claim it as yours. I’ve carried it with me all these years and find myself praying it often. When my mom would tuck me in as a little girl, this was the verse she would give me. “Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You” ( Psalm 56:3). There is no better place to find hope and help than God’s Word! Choose a verse and say it out loud in the presence of the fear that feels overwhelming to you. Grab hold of one of these verses and claim it as your prayer and battle cry this week over your fear. God’s Word offers truth, promises, and prayers as remedy to cure the heart of the uneasy worry that seems to wreck us.
