God loves to show his power through his people. And that means that he calls all of us to situations in our lives where we have to face our fears in order to do what’s right. The life God calls us to can be difficult, but, instead of worrying about how big our fears are, we can be courageous and remember how big our God is! 

Bible Verses About Courage:

  • Joshua 1:9 | God wants us to do His will with courage.
  • 2 Corinthians 12:9 | God’s power is greatest when we are weak.
  • Isaiah 41:10 | God will strengthen us!
  • 1 Samuel 17:45 | David tells Goliath that he’s fighting the living God!
  • Isaiah 26:3 | God gives peace to those who trust Him.

Family Time Questions About Courage:

• What’s something you’re afraid of?

• Is that thing too big for God to handle?

• What does it mean to be courageous?

• Is it ever ok to be scared?

• What’s an example of a time when you had to have courage?

Prayer:

Dear God, thank you for being bigger than my fears. Please help me to have courage and to face my fears and do what’s right. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
