When The Lord saved David from Saul and his other
enemies. David sang this song to the Lord.
The Lord is my protector he is my strong fortress.
My God is my protection and with I am safe.

about Faith - Read scriptures that offer guidance, support and
encouragement on subjects dealing with faith, such as Christian faith, faith in
healing, faith in prayer, faith in others, and hope. Read verses from the Holy
Bible about faith in relation to God, Jesus Christ, and the Christian faith.
1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and
assurance about what we do not see. 2 This
is what the ancients were commended for. 3 By
faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what
is seen was not made out of what was visible. 4 By faith Abel brought God a better offering than
Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his
offerings. And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead. 5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he
did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him
away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please God,
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards
those who earnestly seek him. 7 By
faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to
save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the
righteousness that is in keeping with faith. 8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he
would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not
know where he was going. 9 By faith he made his
home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in
tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same
promise. 10 For he was looking
forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. 11 And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing
age, was enabled to bear children because she considered him faithful who had
made the promise. 12 And so from this one
man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the
sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore. 13 All these people were still living by faith when
they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and
welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and
strangers on earth. 14 People who say such
things show that they are looking for a country of their own. 15 If they had been thinking of the country they had
left, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a
heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has
prepared a city for them. 17 By faith Abraham, when
God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises
was about to sacrifice his one and only son, 18 even though God had said to him, “It is through
Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.” 19 Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead,
and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death. 20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau in regard to
their future. 21 By faith Jacob, when he
was dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons, and worshiped as he leaned on the top
of his staff. 22 By faith Joseph, when
his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave
instructions concerning the burial of his bones. 23 By faith Moses’ parents hid him for three months
after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not
afraid of the king’s edict. 24 By
faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s
daughter. 25 He chose to be
mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting
pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace for
the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he
was looking ahead to his reward. 27 By
faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw
him who is invisible. 28 By faith he kept the
Passover and the application of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn
would not touch the firstborn of Israel. 29 By
faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians
tried to do so, they were drowned. 30 By
faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the army had marched around them for
seven days.31 By faith the prostitute
Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were
disobedient. 32 And what more shall I
say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson and Jephthah, about
David and Samuel and the prophets, 33 who
through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was
promised; who shut the mouths of lions, 34 quenched
the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was
turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign
armies. 35 Women received back
their dead, raised to life again. There were others who were tortured, refusing
to be released so that they might gain an even better resurrection. 36 Some faced jeers and flogging, and even chains and
imprisonment. 37 They were put to death
by stoning; they were sawed in two; they were killed by the sword. They went
about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated— 38 the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in
deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground. 39 These were all commended for their faith, yet none
of them received what had been promised,
never stop praying
Do not worry about your life.
