As President Donald J. Trump arrived safely home to the White House Monday evening, the prayers of hundreds of supporters gathered outside the gates of Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and the millions of people around the world were answered.
The message the president shared via Twitter and Facebook is one of courage and hope: Fear not.
“Feeling really good!
“Don’t be afraid of Covid.
“Don’t let it dominate your life. We have developed, under the Trump administration, some really great drugs & knowledge.
“I feel better than I did 20 years ago!”
After returning home, Trump tweeted a video in which he repeated his message of “no fear”:
“One thing that’s for certain: Don’t let it dominate you. Don’t be afraid of it. You’re going to beat it. We have the best medical equipment. We have the best medicines, all developed recently.
“And you’re going to beat it.”
Most people are unaware that one of the most popular phrases in the Bible, in fact, is the phrase, “fear not,” which is mentioned in the Bible 365 times—one for every day, reinforcing one of the most important messages of the Gospel: God is not the author of fear. He gives hope to those that believe.
Bestselling author of God, Trump and COVID-19 Stephen Strang says, “The attacks are, in my opinion, from the pit of hell. As a Christian, I believe that Satan is behind this. He is trying to steal, kill and destroy.”
“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” (Isa. 41:10, NKJV).
Returning to the White House in triumph, not just for himself, but for those living in fear and afraid of the future, the president gave a message of hope. And in just 27 days, the decision of hope rests with the nearly 59 million believers who failed to vote in 2016 and must do so. {eoa}
