"Have I not told you? Be strong and have strength of heart! Do not be afraid or lose faith. For the Lord your God is with you anywhere you go."

He answered, "Do not be afraid. For those who are with us are more than those who are with them."

Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.

Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord. 

For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.

Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love.

Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; He will neither fail you nor abandon you.
