How the ‘Be Strong and Courageous’ Scripture Changed My Approach to Fear
Fear is a powerful emotion that can hold us back from living the life God has planned for us. It can paralyze us, keep us from taking risks, and hinder our growth. I used to struggle with fear – fear of failure, fear of the unknown, fear of what others might think. But then I came across the powerful message in the Bible that transformed my approach to fear: “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9).

It reminded me that I am not alone – God is with me, guiding me, protecting me, and giving me the strength I need to face my fears head-on.
