Do Not Fear Or Be Afraid 1 Samuel 12:19-2 Kings 4:7 NKJV


1 Samuel 12:19-21 And all the people said to Samuel, "Pray for your servants to the LORD your God, that we may not die; for we have added to all our sins the evil of asking a king for ourselves."

Then Samuel said to the people, "Do not fear, You have done all this wickedness; yet do not turn aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart.

"And do not turn aside; for then you would go after empty things which can not profit or deliver, for they are nothing.

1 Samuel 21:9-15 So the priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the valley of Elah, there it is, wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you will take that, take it. For there is no other except that one here." and David said, "There is none like it; give it to me."

Then David arose and fled that day from before Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.

And the servants of Achish said to him, "Is this not David the king of the land? Did they not sing of him to one another in dances, saying, 'Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands'?"

Now David took these words to heart, and was very much afraid of Achish the king of Gath.

So he changed his behavior before them, pretended madness in their hands, scratched on the doors of the gate, and let his saliva fall down on his beard.

Then Achish said to his servants, "Look, you see the man is insane. Why have you brought him to me?

"Have I need of madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?

1 Samuel 22:23 "Stay with me; do not fear. For he who seeks my life seeks your life, but with me you shall be safe."

1 Samuel 23:17 And he said to him, "Do not fear, for the hand of Saul my father shall not find you. You shall be king over Israel, and I shall be next to you. Even my father Saul knows that."
