Don’t Be Afraid! | Sunday Message

Psalm 27 offers us comforting words, “The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid?” In today’s message, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us study this Psalm, revealing the power it holds. Find the biblical wisdom you need.

Notes:

People’s number one fear is glossophobia.
 
We need to face our fears.
 
Deal with your giants, because either you conquer them, or they will conquer you.
 
“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?”
Psalm 27:1
 
Faith overcomes fear.
 
When faith walks in, worry walks out; but when worry steps in, faith walks out.
 
The Christian life is not a cakewalk; it’s a conflict—it’s not a playground; it’s a battleground.
 
There will always be something to potentially worry about.
 
When you are afraid in the dark, turn on the light.
Psalm 27:1
 
Anxious notions come sweeping into our mind, uninvited and unwelcome.
But the presence of our heavenly Father can dispel all fear, worry, and anxiety.
 
Face your fears in God’s strength, not your own.
Psalm 27:1
 
God is bigger than your enemies.
Psalm 27:2–3
 
God promises to keep us safe in His protection.
Psalm 27:5
 
God will never allow anything to touch us that He does not allow, and He certainly will never let anything happen that would separate us from His love for us.
 
God either did it or allowed it for His glory and our ultimate good.
Romans 8:38 
 
David knew that the main thing was to keep the main thing the main thing!
Psalm 27:4–5
 
A danger in life is to permit the urgent things to crowd out the important things.
 
If we don’t focus on that one thing, we will end up doing everything, and accomplish nothing.

You have a Father in Heaven who loves you and always has time for you.
 
God promises to be a Father to the fatherless.
 
Your heavenly Father will never abandon you.
