Your Nightly Prayer for Overcoming Fear of the Unknown

Fear of the unknown can grip our hearts, especially when life feels uncertain or unpredictable. Whether it’s facing a new challenge, waiting on answers, or stepping into unfamiliar territory, fear can paralyze us. But God’s Word in 2 Timothy 1:7 reminds us that He has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. Just as David trusted God against Goliath and Esther stepped forward in courage, we too can find strength in God’s promises. This Nightly Prayer for Overcoming Fear of the Unknown helps release fear and embrace the peace that comes from trusting in Him.

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” — 2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)
