God said 87 times in the Bible Do not be afraid. Do you think he understood us? EIGHT-SEVEN times.
Here's the first fifteen, who he said it to, and the comfort he gave them. I'll share more tomorrow.
Do not be afraid to;
Abram; for I am your shield; Gen15:1
Hagar; for I heard the boy crying Gen 21:17
Jacob; for I am with you, I will bless you, and will increase your number Gen 26:24
Jacob/Israel; for I will make you a great nation there. Gen 46:3
People of Israel; for the Lord will bring you deliverance Ex 14:13
People of Israel; for God has come to test you, so you won’t sin. Ex 20:20
People of Israel; for we will swallow the people up, their protection is gone. Num 14:9
Moses; for I have handed over his army and his land to you. Num 21:34
Moses; for Judgment belongs to God. Deut 1:17
People of Israel; for the Lord has given you the land, do not be discouraged Deut 1:21
People of Israel; for the Lord will fight for you, and carry you Deut 1:29
People of Israel; for the Lord will drive them out Deut 3:2
People of Israel; for you must remember what the Lord did to Pharoah and too all Egypt Deut 7:18
People of Israel; for the Lord who brought you out of Egypt is with you.

Thank you! I really needed that today. Sometimes you have to listen hard to hear God's voice, but more often than not its right in front of you in big letters on your computer.
AWESOME! My hubby went through a phase where upon entering a room he would announce, "FEAR NOT!"
