As I write this morning, thousands of people are experiencing fear. In recent days, many have lost everything of their material possessions through horrible hurricanes, fearful floods, forest fires, powerful earthquakes, etc.--and yet, the Psalmist said in Psalm 34:4:
"I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears."
What a sweet verse, and what a blessed comfort it is to know that Jesus can set us free from every fear! At least 19 times in the New Testament, we hear Jesus say "Fear not" or "Be not afraid"!
Get out your hymnal and read again the beautiful words of "How Firm A Foundation"!
"When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow!
For I will be with thee, thy trials to bless--
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress!"
Remember to --- "Bless the Lord at all times: keep His praise continually in thy mouth!"
