Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge
Isaiah 41:10 Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
John 8:32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
