Coragem
A coragem cristã não é ausência de medo — é confiança em Deus maior que todo temor. Sê forte e corajoso! é o chamado repetido do Senhor aos seus filhos.
Sê forte e corajoso
O Senhor é a minha luz e a minha salvação — de quem terei medo? Com coragem enfrentamos o mundo, porque Deus está conosco.

Coragem em Cristo
Não vos deu Deus espírito de covardia. Sede fortes na fé! O perfeito amor lança fora todo medo.
For the Spirit that God has given us does not make us timid; instead, his Spirit fills us with power, love, and self-control.

Be alert, stand firm in the faith, be brave, be strong.

There is no fear in love; perfect love drives out all fear. So then, love has not been made perfect in anyone who is afraid, because fear has to do with punishment.

Não temas
Não temas, porque Eu sou contigo. Quando tiver medo, em ti confiarei. Deus é nosso escudo e fortaleza.
Do not be afraid—I am with you!
I am your God—let nothing terrify you!
I will make you strong and help you;
I will protect you and save you.
I am the Lord your God;
I strengthen you and tell you,
‘Do not be afraid; I will help you.’"
Do not be afraid—I am with you!
"From the distant east and the farthest west
I will bring your people home.
Do not be afraid—you will not be disgraced again;
you will not be humiliated.
You will forget your unfaithfulness as a young wife,
and your desperate loneliness as a widow.
When I am afraid, O Lord Almighty,
I put my trust in you.
I trust in God and am not afraid;
I praise him for what he has promised.
What can a mere human being do to me?
The Lord is my light and my salvation;
I will fear no one.
The Lord protects me from all danger;
I will never be afraid.
Trust in the Lord.
Have faith, do not despair.
Trust in the Lord.
Trust in the Lord.
Have faith, do not despair.
Trust in the Lord.
Be strong, be courageous,
all you that hope in the Lord.
Even if I go through the deepest darkness,
I will not be afraid, Lord,
for you are with me.
Your shepherd’s rod and staff protect me.
Conforto e encorajamento
O Deus de toda consolação nos consola em todas as tribulações. Coragem não falta a quem descansa em Deus.
Let us give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the merciful Father, the God from whom all help comes! He helps us in all our troubles, so that we are able to help others who have all kinds of troubles, using the same help that we ourselves have received from God.
Yet we who have this spiritual treasure are like common clay pots, in order to show that the supreme power belongs to God, not to us. We are often troubled, but not crushed; sometimes in doubt, but never in despair; there are many enemies, but we are never without a friend; and though badly hurt at times, we are not destroyed. At all times we carry in our mortal bodies the death of Jesus, so that his life also may be seen in our bodies. Throughout our lives we are always in danger of death for Jesus' sake, in order that his life may be seen in this mortal body of ours.
Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, "I will never leave you; I will never abandon you." Let us be bold, then, and say,
"The Lord is my helper,
I will not be afraid.
What can anyone do to me?"
Who will harm you if you are eager to do what is good? But even if you should suffer for doing what is right, how happy you are! Do not be afraid of anyone, and do not worry.
"Peace is what I leave with you; it is my own peace that I give you. I do not give it as the world does. Do not be worried and upset; do not be afraid.
