Everyday Promises – 166

Delivered From Fear

I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4 NIV

There was a time in my life when unreasonable fears plagued me. In fact, my life seemed full of fears: I feared people would break into our home, I feared funnel-web spiders biting my family, I feared our cars would be stolen, I feared someone would hurt my children, I feared our money would run out. For weeks I felt almost afraid to go to sleep. As was my usual practice I read my Bible before I retired. One evening I came upon this promise and it changed me. That night I earnestly prayed that God would do what he promised and deliver me from my fears. He did. From that evening I walked free. Our loving Father longs to assist us in our need. Whatever troubles our heart is a concern to him. If you are troubled by fears give them to God and ask for deliverance, for he will hear and help you.
