TRUST Psalm 56:3-4

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise--in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me? 

When I am afraid 
Psalm 55:4-5  My heart is in anguish within me; the terrors of death have fallen on me. Fear and trembling have beset me; horror has overwhelmed me.
Psalm 55:23  But you, God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of decay; the bloodthirsty and deceitful will not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in you.

In God, whose word I praise 
Psalm 56:10-11  In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise--in God I trust and am not afraid. What can man do to me?

In God I trust and am not afraid 
Psalm 27:1  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?

What can mere mortals do to me? 
Psalm 118:6  The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?
Matthew 10:28  "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell."
Hebrews 13:5-6  Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." (Deuteronomy 31:6) So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?" (Psalm 118:6-7)
