We hear so much about immunizations today: kids get 
shots before school, flu, pneumonia, covid, shingles, scientists are working on a vaccine for RSV.
Wouldn’t you love to have an immunization against Fear? A literal “shot” of courage that would allow you to face challenges without angst, worry or dread?
You know, this is a REAL thing right? (I know—you’re saying, “There is not a physical shot to protect (immunize) me from fear!”)
Hang with me for one minute:
Blood is your life source. (Leviticus 17:11)
An immunization goes into your blood to protect you from whatever disease with which it is connected.
Your blood is made in your bone marrow in the larger flat bones: skull, sternum and pelvis (the ones that protect your mind, heart and core).
Check these verses out:
“I have hidden your Word in my heart…” (Psalm 119:11)
“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee…” (Isaiah 26:3)
“Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from Him…” (Psalm 62:1)
Hiding God’s word in your heart,
Keeping your mind on Him,
Allowing your body & soul to rest knowing “God’s got this”
IS the immunization against fear!
Here are a few “shots” of courage for you.
Allow them to be hidden in your heart;
Keep your mind on them;
Rest your body and soul knowing these TRUTHS are real!!
Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. (John 14:27)
So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can Man do to me?” (Hebrews 13:6)
The Lord is my light and my salvation–whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life–of whom shall I be afraid? (Psalm 27:1)
For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. (Isaiah 41:13)
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)
