Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will surely help you; I will uphold you with My right hand of righteousness.

I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.

For the choirmaster. Of the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. A song. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble.

Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.

A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. . . .

Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

So we say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?”

Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love.

A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber. Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand. . . .

And my God will supply all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.

My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope.

Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have told you.

The LORD your God is among you; He is mighty to save. He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His love; He will rejoice over you with singing.”

Then Asa cried out to the LORD his God: “O LORD, there is no one besides You to help the powerless against the mighty. Help us, O LORD our God, for we rely on You, and in Your name we have come against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God. Do not let a mere mortal prevail against You.”

Seek out the LORD and His strength; seek His face always.

But those who wait upon the LORD will renew their strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

But You, O LORD, be not far off; O my Strength, come quickly to help me.

“Oh, Lord GOD! You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too difficult for You!

Of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life—whom shall I dread?

Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you. Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.

But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.

If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.

For no word from God will ever fail.”

Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him, and He will do it.

But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overcome the world!”

But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.

The LORD helps and delivers them; He rescues and saves them from the wicked, because they take refuge in Him.

Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.

The LORD is on my side; He is my helper. Therefore I will look in triumph on those who hate me.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield. For our hearts rejoice in Him, since we trust in His holy name. May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You.

Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid or terrified of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.”

For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”

The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Allow perseverance to finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid.

Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.

But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”

A song of ascents. Of Solomon. Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain; unless the LORD protects the city, its watchmen stand guard in vain.

The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.”

“Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too difficult for Me?

And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me for anything in My name, I will do it.

The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise as some understand slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish but everyone to come to repentance.

You, little children, are from God and have overcome them, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

If you ask Me for anything in My name, I will do it.

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved!

For I am the LORD your God, who takes hold of your right hand and tells you: Do not fear, I will help you.

So do not throw away your confidence; it holds a great reward.

The work of righteousness will be peace; the service of righteousness will be quiet confidence forever. Then my people will dwell in a peaceful place, in safe and secure places of rest.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him from them all.

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly plague. He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart. You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, . . .

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.” So we say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?”

But You, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion and faithfulness.

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”

“Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him. When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him.

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.

Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor Me.”

And this is the confidence that we have before Him: If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we already possess what we have asked of Him.

Be doers of the word, and not hearers only. Otherwise, you are deceiving yourselves.

Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

The woman came and knelt before Him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

Every word of God is flawless; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.

Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”

Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. For the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and He also has become my salvation.”

Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,

For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.

He sent forth His word and healed them; He rescued them from the Pit.

The LORD upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.

A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?

Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

The LORD redeems His servants, and none who take refuge in Him will be condemned.

Just as man is appointed to die once, and after that to face judgment,

The eternal God is your dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He drives out the enemy before you, giving the command, ‘Destroy him!’

This is the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants what must soon come to pass. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John,

Behold what manner of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him.

Whatever you do, work at it with your whole being, for the Lord and not for men,

You did not choose Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.
