Peace for Fear

Hymns: 205, 390, 93

Bible
Job 4:13,14   
In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men, Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake.

Job 37:1,23   
At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place.

Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.

Prov 3:13,17,18,21, 24-26   
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:

When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. For the Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.

Jer 30:5 thus,10 (to 2nd ,),10 Lord,11 (to :)   
thus saith the Lord; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob,

Lord; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none shall make him afraid. For I am with thee, saith the Lord, to save thee:

I Kings 19:11 behold,12   
behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

Ps 139:1,5,6,14   
O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

Ps 36:7,10   
How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.

O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.

Eph 3:14 I bow,16-19   
I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

I John 4:7,18 (to .),19   
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment.

We love him, because he first loved us.

Isa 43:1 now (to :),2 (to :),3 (to :),4   
now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not:

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee:

For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour:

Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.

Isa 26:3  
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

Prov 3:5,6   
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Ps 46:10,11 (to .)   
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.

John 14:1,18, 27   
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Matt 28:20 lo (to .)   
lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.

Zeph 3:15 thou,17  
thou shalt not see evil any more.

The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.

Dan 10:7 I Daniel (to :),8-12,19 O   
I Daniel alone saw the vision:

Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength. Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground. And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands. And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent.  And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling. Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.

O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong.  And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.

Ps 18:32   
It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

Hab 2:20 the Lord   
the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.


Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures
374:18-21, 22 (only)  
You confess to ignorance of the future and incapacity to preserve your own existence, and this belief helps rather than hinders disease. Such a state of mind induces sickness.

It is like walking in darkness on the edge of a precipice.

176:17   
    Human fear of miasma would load with disease the air of Eden, and weigh down mankind with superimposed and conjectural evils. Mortal mind is the worst foe of the body, while divine Mind is its best friend.

563:4-7 (to ?)  
We may well be perplexed at human fear; and still more astounded at hatred, which lifts its hydra head, showing its horns in the many inventions of evil. But why should we stand aghast at nothingness?

410:14-17   
    Every trial of our faith in God makes us stronger.  The more difficult seems the material condition to be overcome by Spirit, the stronger should be our faith and the purer our love.

195:11-12   
    The point for each one to decide is, whether it is mortal mind or immortal Mind that is causative. 

151:18 (to 2nd .),20-24,26   
Fear never stopped being and its action.

Every function of the real man is governed by the divine Mind. The human mind has no power to kill or to cure, and it has no control over God's man. The divine Mind that made man maintains His own image and likeness.

All that really exists is the divine Mind and its idea, and in this Mind the entire being is found harmonious and eternal. The straight and narrow way is to see and acknowledge this fact, yield to this power, and follow the leadings of truth.

231:20   
    To hold yourself superior to sin, because God made you superior to it and governs man, is true wisdom. To fear sin is to misunderstand the power of Love and the divine Science of being in man's relation to God, ? to doubt His government and distrust His omnipotent care. To hold yourself superior to sickness and death is equally wise, and is in accordance with divine Science. To fear them is impossible, when you fully apprehend God and know that they are no part of His creation.

188:24   
The soil of disease is mortal mind, and you have an abundant or scanty crop of disease, according to the seedlings of fear. Sin and the fear of disease must be uprooted and cast out.

378:10-12,16-18 (to ;)   
By looking a tiger fearlessly in the eye, Sir Charles Napier sent it cowering back into the jungle.

This latter occurrence represents the power of Truth over error, ? the might of intelligence exercised over mortal beliefs to destroy them;

454:5-9,10 (to 2nd .)   
The understanding, even in a degree, of the divine All-power destroys fear, and plants the feet in the true path,  ? the path which leads to the house built without hands "eternal in the heavens."

Love is enthroned.

392:5   
Fear, which is an element of all disease, must be cast out to readjust the balance for God. Casting out evil and fear enables truth to outweigh error. The only course is to take antagonistic grounds against all that is opposed to the health, holiness, and harmony of man, God's image.

495:16-20   
Let neither fear nor doubt overshadow your clear sense and calm trust, that the recognition of life harmonious ? as Life eternally is ? can destroy any painful sense of, or belief in, that which Life is not.

393:12-18   
Rise in the strength of Spirit to resist all that is unlike good. God has made man capable of this, and nothing can vitiate the ability and power divinely bestowed on man.
    Be firm in your understanding that the divine Mind governs, and that in Science man reflects God's government. 

411:27-1   
    Always begin your treatment by allaying the fear of patients. Silently reassure them as to their exemption from disease and danger. Watch the result of this simple rule of Christian Science, and you will find that it alleviates the symptoms of every disease. If you succeed in wholly removing the fear, your patient is healed.

420:24   
Tell the sick that they can meet disease fearlessly, if they only realize that divine Love gives them all power over every physical action and condition.

265:10   
    This scientific sense of being, forsaking matter for Spirit, by no means suggests man's absorption into Deity and the loss of his identity, but confers upon man enlarged individuality, a wider sphere of thought and action, a more expansive love, a higher and more permanent peace.

365:31   
The poor suffering heart needs its rightful nutriment, such as peace, patience in tribulation, and a priceless sense of the dear Father's loving-kindness.

214:32   
Spirit's senses are without pain, and they are forever at peace. Nothing can hide from them the harmony of all things and the might and permanence of Truth.

264:24   
Spiritual living and blessedness are the only evidences, by which we can recognize true existence and feel the unspeakable peace which comes from an all-absorbing spiritual love.

406:19-24 (to ,)   
    Resist evil ? error of every sort ? and it will flee from you. Error is opposed to Life. We can, and ultimately shall, so rise as to avail ourselves in every direction of the supremacy of Truth over error, Life over death, and good over evil, and this growth will go on until we arrive at the fulness of God's idea,

125:12-17   
    As human thought changes from one stage to another of conscious pain and painlessness, sorrow and joy, ? from fear to hope and from faith to understanding, ? the visible manifestation will at last be man governed by Soul, not by material sense. Reflecting God's government, man is self-governed.

506:10   
    Through divine Science, Spirit, God, unites understanding to eternal harmony. The calm and exalted thought or spiritual apprehension is at peace.  Thus the dawn of ideas goes on, forming each successive stage of progress.
