No Fear, No Worries, Only Worship

 ⏲ 20 mins

You shall fear [and worship] the Lord your God [with awe-filled reverence and profound respect]; you shall serve Him and cling to Him [hold tightly to Him, be united with Him], and you shall swear [oaths] by His name. DEUTERONOMY 10:20 AMP


“So I fell down and lay face down before the Lord forty days and nights because the Lord had said He would destroy you. DEUTERONOMY 9:25

But if this is how God clothes the grass which is in the field today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you? You of little faith! LUKE 12:28 AMP


Why are you in despair, O my soul? Why have you become restless and disquieted within me? Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God. PSALM 42:11 AMP

DEUTERONOMY 20:3‭-‬4 AMP


The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold [our refuge, our high tower]. Selah.
PSALM 46:7 AMP
