“But when I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.” Psalms‬ ‭56:3‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Heavenly Father, You are greater, mightier, and more powerful than any fear we face. You command us to not be afraid because You are with us everywhere we go (Joshua 1:9). Even when we walk through the darkest valley, You are with us (Psalm 23:4). Your word declares that we are more than conquerors (Romans 8:37)…but even still, I don’t always feel this way. Sometimes the fear of what others think, fear of being a bad parent or spouse, fear of displeasing You or fear of not being “good enough” wins out. Sometimes I’m more weak than I am strong. Help me in my weakness Lord. Help me to put my trust in You when I am afraid.

Please go before me this week; help me to put on the full armor of God in order to fight off the doubts, fears, and lies that come against me. Give me a fresh filling of your Holy Spirit and help me to walk in Your strength. In Jesus’ name, amen.
