Scripture

Then the Lord instructed the people, “Don’t be afraid, don’t be paralyzed by this mighty army for the battle is not yours, but God’s! Tomorrow, go down and attack them! But you will not need to fight. Take your places; stand quietly and see the incredible rescue operation God will perform for you.”

“Everything [God] does reveals his glory and majesty.”

“I will set nothing wicked before my eyes.”

“God has given each of us the ability to do certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out when you have faith that God is speaking through you. If your gift is that of serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, do a good job of teaching. If your gift is to encourage others, do it! If you have money, share it generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.”

I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me, freeing me from all my fears.
