well alot of times you may get scared, scared of a death or scared of some new disease now if i am not mistaken being scared is the same as being worried well here are a couple of verses that should help you through being scared

Joshua 1:9

-Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your GOD will be with you wherever you go.

This is one of my favorite versus on how to not be scared of little things.


Mathew 10:29-31:

-"Not one sparrow (what do they cost? Two for a penny?) can fall to the ground without your father knowing it. And the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don't worry! You are more valuable to him than many sparrows."


This verse tells me not to worry fourth my father "GOD" is watching over me saying just dont worry because i am here and you are worth more than any earthly item

Philippians 4:6-7

- "Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything; tell God your needs, and don't forget to thank him for his answers. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will keep your thoughts and your hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ Jesus."


This verse is my favorite verse of all, it says don't worry! pray about everything!! and don't just lay back and and accept thank him! and I tell you from experience Gods peace is amazing, have the trust of god is wonderful knowing he is right there!! is an incredible feeling and keep your thoughts quiet like when the devil tries to talk you into something you know you shouldn't do just keep it quiet and god will speak t you through our simple human body's!

1 Peter 5:7

-"let [God] have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you."


This verse is another favorite, just put all your troubles and worries before God fourth he is watching your concerns, don't act upon your concerns though, fourth God will take care of them!


and that concludes my studies on being scared... for now anyways
 
Joshua 1:9

-Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your GOD will be with you wherever you go.

This is one of my favorite versus on how to not be scared of little things.

Same here, 3 people separately gave me that verse at my baptism. I hope to be a missionary, so a great verse to keep in my heart!

I am wondering what is meant by the "fear of God" what is your interpretation on the phrase??

The fear of God is a healthy fear, and can help overcome earthly fear. eg when you have the all powerful creator of all things, prompting you to witness to somebody, earthly fears don't seem quite so big.......
Also I don't think we can lose our salvation, but there are plenty of verses and reasons to make us approach, and make sure of our election in fear and trembling! Again when you consider and meditate on God, this is a good and proper fear!!!!!!
 
Thank you I found that helpful in putting me back on track and not to worry so much. Good to see posts like this!
 
Thank you for this :).. We all need to be reminded of encouraging scripture sometimes. Godbless
