Christians should not fear because God promises His constant presence and deliverance.
In Isaiah 43:5, God reassures us, 'Fear not, for I am with thee.' This is a profound promise that underscores the believer’s security in God’s hands. The assurance of His presence is echoed throughout scripture, emphasizing that regardless of the trials we face—be it persecution, sickness, or death—God is steadfastly with us. Matthew 28:20 reminds us that Jesus will be with us always, even to the end of the age. Together these promises form a foundation of comfort, illustrating that fear loses its power in the presence of our Lord. It calls believers to trust fully in His sovereignty and protection, knowing that He has overcome the world.
