Prayers for Anxiety and Fear

Anxiety rarely waits for a convenient hour. It shows up at 3 a.m., before the phone call, in the waiting room. Scripture never pretends fear isn’t real — it answers it, over and over, with the same words: “Do not be afraid, for I am with you.”

These are short prayers for anxious moments — each one drawn from a verse, each one voiced so you can pray along out loud. You don’t need the right words. Borrow these.
