4 I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4 (NIV)
As he says in verse four, during times of fear and distress, David turned to God. Like David, we can overcome fear in times of danger, terror, and depression. The key is bringing our problems to the Lord in prayer.
If God is for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31b (NIV)
God is on our side. He will fight for us. King David’s life and safety were in danger on many occasions. He prayed to God, as he wrote in Psalm 23:4, and God answered him, and he found peace.
4 I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4 (NIV)
Even in the darkest valley, God was with him.
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. Psalm 23:4 (NIV)
Being delivered “from all my fears” doesn’t mean that threats cease to exist; it means trusting God to handle them and experiencing a divine calm. When we pray, the Lord can remove our anxiety, allowing us to experience divine peace, knowing that the Maker of heaven and earth is in control of the situation.
May we be like David and trust in God, turning our anxious moments into prayer, relying on and depending on Him.

Our Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your love and protection. Teach us to reach out to You in prayer in times of fear and danger. We thank You for answering our prayers and for being on our side. Help us to release our anxiety to You and receive Your divine peace. Like the colorful azalea flower brightens springtime, let us shine brightly, reflecting Your love. In Jesus’ holy name. Amen.
