Medo
O medo é uma das emoções mais paralisantes. Mas a Bíblia repete mais de 300 vezes: 'Não temas.' O perfeito amor lança fora o medo, porque Deus está conosco.
O antídoto contra o medo
No amor não existe medo; o perfeito amor lança fora o medo. O medo tem a ver com castigo, mas quem ama está em Deus.
ʻOku ʻikai ha manavahē ʻi he ʻofa; ka ʻoku tekeʻi atu ʻae manavahē ʻe he ʻofa haohaoa: he ʻoku ʻi he manavahē ʻae mamahi. Ko ia ia ʻoku manavahē, ʻoku teʻeki ke fakahaohaoa ia ʻi he ʻofa.

Deus é refúgio
O Senhor é a minha luz e minha salvação — de quem terei medo? Ele é fortaleza da minha vida — de quem me recearei?

Confiar e não temer
Quando o medo chegar, confie em Deus. O Senhor é escudo e refúgio — Ele acalma tempestades e silencia todo medo.
ʻI he ʻaho ʻoku ou manavahē ai,

Ke ke tuku hoʻo kavenga kia Sihova, pea te ne poupou koe:
ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te ne tuku ke ngaue ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni.
Naʻaku kumi kia Sihova, pea ne ongoʻi au,

Não temas — Eu estou contigo
Deus repete: não temas, porque eu sou contigo. Ele segura nossa mão direita e nos fortalece em cada situação de medo.

Paz que vence o medo
A paz de Cristo e a confiança no Pai celestial dissipam todo temor. Jesus disse: não se turbe o vosso coração, nem se atemorize.
"ʻOku ou tuku ʻae melino kiate kimoutolu, ko ʻeku melino ʻoku ou foaki kiate kimoutolu: ʻoku ʻikai hangē ko e foaki ʻa māmani, ʻa ʻeku foaki kiate kimoutolu. ʻOua naʻa mamahi homou loto, pea ʻoua naʻa manavahē ʻia.

Coragem e segurança
O Senhor é meu pastor, nada me faltará. Mesmo no vale da sombra da morte, não temerei mal algum, porque Tu estás comigo.
ʻIo, neongo ʻeku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe malumalu ʻoe mate,
