Fear Not #4

Revelation 2:10King James Version (KJV)

10 “Fear nothing in the things you’re about to suffer—but stay on guard! Fear nothing! The Devil is about to throw you in jail for a time of testing—ten days. It won’t last forever.

“Don’t quit, even if it costs you your life. Stay there believing. I have a Life-Crown sized and ready for you.

Fear Not #1

There was a meme floating around Pinterest recently that mentioned that the Bible says "fear not" 366 times - 1 for every day of the year (even in a leap year).  After some searching, I found that this pops up again and again, but couldn't find a set list of verses.  So... I don't know if there are truly 366 references, but each time I find it in my reading I'll post it on this blog since I do want to keep track.  Maybe there aren't 366 verses.  Maybe there are more.  I'm interested to see how it all turns out.
