may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the

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.
(Romans 8:31b,35,37-39)
The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. (Romans
16:20)
No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is
faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the
testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it.
(1 Corinthians 10:13)
For we were so utterly, unbearably crushed that we despaired of life
itself. Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death so that we
would rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. He who rescued us
from so deadly a peril will continue to rescue us; on him we have set our hope
that he will rescue us again. (2 Corinthians 1:8b-10a)
But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that it may be made clear
that this extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us. We are
afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair;
persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying
in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be made
visible in our bodies. (2 Corinthians 4:7-10)
So we do not lose heart. Even though our outer nature is wasting
away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day. For this slight momentary
affliction is preparing us for an eternal weight of glory beyond all measure,
because we look not at what can be seen but at what cannot be seen; for what
can be seen is temporary, but what cannot be seen is eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:16-18)
So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old
has passed away; see, everything has become new! (2 Corinthians 5:17)
And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all
things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good
work. (2 Corinthians 9:8)
My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in
weakness. (2 Corinthians 12:9a)
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ
lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God,
who loved me and gave himself for me. (Galatians 2:20)
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we
will reap a harvest if we do not give up. (Galatians 6:9)
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has
blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places. (Ephesians
1:3)
Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and
supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the
peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and
your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is
honorable, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence
and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
(Philippians 4:6-8)
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have
plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation.
I can do everything through him who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:12a,13)
Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on
earth, for you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When
Christ who is your life is revealed, then you also will be revealed with him in
glory. (Colossians 3:2-4)
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts. (Colossians 3:15a)
But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen and protect you
from the evil one. (2 Thessalonians 3:3)
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in
every way. (2 Thessalonians 3:16)
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power,
of love and of self-discipline. (2 Timothy 1:7)
The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely
to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. (2 Timothy 4:18)
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with
our weaknesses, but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are,
yet without sin. Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness,
so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews
4:15-16)
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you
have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
(Hebrews 6:10)
Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be content with
what you have; for he has said, "I will never leave you or forsake
you." So we can say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will
not be afraid. What can anyone do to me?" (Hebrews 13:5-6)
If any of you is lacking in wisdom, ask God, who gives to all
generously and ungrudgingly, and it will be given you. But ask in faith, never
doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by
the wind. (James 1:5-6)
Let those suffering in accordance with God's will entrust themselves
to a faithful Creator, while continuing to do good. (1 Peter 4:19)
Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you. Discipline
yourselves, keep alert. Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls
around, looking for someone to devour. Resist him, steadfast in your faith. And
after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has
called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, support,
strengthen, and establish you. (1 Peter 5:7-9a,10)
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because
fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
We love because he first loved us. (1 John 4:18-19)
For everyone born of God
overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our
faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is
the Son of God. (1 John 5:4-5)
