When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
—Psalm 56:3
When John was given a vision of heaven, he saw a list of “no mores”:
- No more tears
- No more mourning
- No more pain
- No more death
Clarence Macartney said, “When I read those great ‘no mores’ in the Book of Revelation where the heavenly life is described, I feel I would like to add another great ‘no more’—‘There shall be no more fear.’”
Macartney added: “The Psalmist said, ‘When I am afraid, I will put my trust in Thee.’ That is good. But still better is what Isaiah said, ‘I will trust, and not be afraid.’”
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. . . . do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (Jn 14:27),
Include Jesus’s “Do not be afraid” in your list of “No Mores.”
Obliterate fear by living in faith.
