"Do not be scared" means not to be afraid and is a frequently recurring message in the Bible, especially in connection with the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Messiah. The phrase expresses a call to show courage and confidence in the future rather than being guided by fear or suffering, and motivates us to take new paths and live in accordance with God's will. Remember: "God is with me; I will not be afraid." (Psalm 118:6; Isaiah 41:10)
