Do not be afraid of sudden terror, nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes; for the Lord will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being caught.
Proverbs 3:25-26 (NKJV)
Muhammad Ali, the World Boxing Champion, was once asked what hit it would take to knock him out. He replied, “It’s not the hardest hit, it’s the one you don’t see coming!” Sudden terror is the hit you don’t see coming; it represents the things the devil will use against you that catch you off guard and take you by surprise. When trouble comes upon you suddenly, keep your confidence. The Lord saw it coming and has already planned your victory.
