We Pray For America!
- Bold Belief
Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. – Isaiah 41:10
Millions of people suffer from a debilitating problem… fear! Not just a little fear, but one that may take over their whole lives. Some of these include a fear of crowds, of flying, of spiders, of illness, of water, or of heights. There are many types of physical, emotional, and even spiritual consequences that result from fears, rational or otherwise.
Did you also know that some form of “Fear Not” appears in the Bible roughly a hundred times? God did not intend for you to spend your life stunted by fear, anxiety, and worry. In his book, The Purpose Driven Life, Pastor Rick Warren stated that people can allow fear to control their lives, thus missing out on important opportunities. “Instead,” he writes, “Christians must work through their faith and relationship with God to take away fear’s control over them.”
Consider “Fear Not” as an imperative, authoritative Divine command! Confidently cast any fears you have upon the Lord. Be bold as you trust in God’s purposes for your future. They will not surprise Him, and He can handle it! Pray for Americans to release their fears to the Lord and embrace belief in Him.

35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36 And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him. 37 And a great windstorm arose, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. 38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” 39 And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40 He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?” 41 And they were filled with great fear and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
