You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty ...

[ Elisha] replied, "Do not be afraid, for there are more with us than there are with them."
1 Corinthians 6:11b
But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.
Matthew 5:39
" ...But I say to you, Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also ..." [ Jesus, sitting on the mountain]
III. Meditation: Do not be afraid
You say to us:
Do not be afraid;
you live in the Shelter of the Most High
and abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
Do not be afraid,
for there are more with us
than there are with them.
Do not be afraid,
and do not resist an evildoer;
but when anyone strikes you
on the right cheek, turn the other also.
Do not be afraid,
for you were washed, sanctified, justified
in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
and in the Spirit of God.
Do not be afraid!
