He will not let you stumble; the one who watches over you will not sleep or slumber. The Lord himself watches over you! The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon at night. The Lord keeps you from all harm and watches over your soul. The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever. Psalm 121:3-8

2. By her presence, she removes fear.

Love her, and she will guard you. Psalm 4:5b

For God has not given us a spirit of fear. 2 Timothy 1:7 (satan is the author of fear)

Then an angel from heaven appeared and strengthened him. He prayed more fervently, and he was in such agony (fear) of spirit that his sweat fell to the ground like great drops of blood. At last he stood up again and returned to the disciples, only to find them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. Luke 22:43-45

I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful one see decay. Psalm 16:8-10

And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another comforter  to help you and be with you forever—the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you know him, for He lives with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; John 14:16-18.
