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.
Lo! I have commanded thee; be strong and courageous, be not cowardly nor fearful, for the Lord thy God is with thee in all places whither thou goest.
Lo! I have commanded thee; be strong and courageous, be not cowardly nor fearful, for the Lord thy God is with thee in all places whither thou goest.
Be courageous and strong, fear not, neither be cowardly, neither be afraid before them; for it is the Lord your God that advances with you in the midst of you, neither will he by any means forsake thee, nor desert thee.
Be courageous and strong, fear not, neither be cowardly, neither be afraid before them; for it is the Lord your God that advances with you in the midst of you, neither will he by any means forsake thee, nor desert thee.
And the Lord that goes with thee shall not forsake thee nor abandon thee; fear not, neither be afraid.
And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong, and play the man, and do: fear not, neither be terrified; for the Lord my God is with thee; he will not forsake thee, and will not fail thee, until thou hast finished all the work of the service of the house of the Lord. And behold the pattern of the temple, even his house, and its treasury, and the upper chambers, and the inner storerooms, and the place of propitiation, and the plan of the house of the Lord.
Coragem em Cristo
Não vos deu Deus espírito de covardia. Sede fortes na fé! O perfeito amor lança fora todo medo.
Não temas
Não temas, porque Eu sou contigo. Quando tiver medo, em ti confiarei. Deus é nosso escudo e fortaleza.
Fear not; for I am with thee: wander not; for I am thy God, who have strengthened thee; and I have helped thee, and have established thee with my just right hand.
For I am thy God, who holdeth thy right hand, who saith to thee,
Fear not; for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and will gather thee from the west.
Fear not, because thou hast been put to shame, neither be confounded, because thou wast reproached: for thou shalt forget thy former shame, and shalt no more at all remember the reproach of thy widowhood.
I will cry to God most high;
The God who has benefited me. Pause.
He sent from heaven and saved me;
He gave to reproach them that trampled on me:
God has sent forth his mercy and his truth;
A Psalm of David.
To thee, O Lord, have I cried;
My God, be not silent toward me:
Lest thou be silent toward me,
And so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.
He that is innocent in his hands and pure in his heart;
Who has not lifted up his soul to vanity,
Nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbor.
Conforto e encorajamento
O Deus de toda consolação nos consola em todas as tribulações. Coragem não falta a quem descansa em Deus.
