Faith Over Fear

trees in the snow

Often, we fall for the attack of fear. We find ourselves worrying about our lives.

In 1 Samuel 21 we read of when David had to flee from Saul for his life. While fleeing to Gath, he wrote Psalm 56. In this psalm, he shows amazing trust in God.

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise— in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?

Psalm 56:3-4 NIV

David proclaims that he will choose to trust God instead of being afraid. He deliberately chooses faith over fear.

We should choose this daily and surrender to God and His protection and providence.

1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he [b]meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the [c]rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
