Lord You are my light and my salvation—
As long as I live I will fear nothing and no one apart from You,
the Lover of my soul, and Lover of my dear __________________.
Jesus said it … Don’t even fear those who can kill the body, but fear the One Who decides where bodies and souls will repose forever …
In You, O Lord! In You, I rest now and to the eternity of eternities!
Give this hope to the one for whom I pray.
I take this opportunity, Father, to renounce for myself and to rebuke in Your Name for ____________ any unnatural, unholy fear, any God-denying fear,
any fear of failure
or fear of man
or fear of death.
How quick and subtle is our descent into fear! I will not! – as You give me grace.
You are my life, and Your perfect love casts out all fear! You will never leave me or forsake me; I am with You always.
Let us rise up against the fears that have entangled and destroyed the souls of those we love. Let us have nothing to do with fear, and hate it when we see where it comes from and what it has done in our homes, hearts, and in our nation.
