Fearful? Fear paralyzes and keeps you from your blessings. Feel the need to perform, in order to receive the praise of men? Or do you focus on God, with praise and worship, to please him, in all your ways? Believe and receive his love! Then you will not fear circumstances or chaos swirling around you. No reason to fear because God is near and loves you!

God is love! Those who are living in love are living in God, and God lives through them. By living in God, love has been brought to its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is,  so are we in this world.  Love never brings fear, for fear is always related to punishment. But love's perfection drives the fear of punishment far from our hearts. Whoever walks constantly afraid of punishment has not reached love's perfection.  Our love for others is our grateful response to the love God first demonstrated to us. (1 John 4:17-19 TPT)

Even when your path takes me through the valley of deepest darkness, fear will never conquer me, for you already have! Your authority is my strength and my peace. The comfort of your love takes away my fear. I'll never be lonely, for you are near. (Psalm 23:4 TPT)
