(Job 5:20) Even during recessions, the faithfulness of God doesn't change. He who sustained Isaac during the famine and gave him a 100 fold yield still lives and is able to take care of you and your family. Trust in his faithfulness.

He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy. (Job 8:20,21) Sometimes we may feel that God has rejected us and is strengthening the hands of evildoers. But those are just wrong feelings when we pass through bad times. His promise is that he will never leave us nor forsake us. Take heart. He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Job 11:18) Our hope and security must be in Jesus Christ, not market analysis, expert opinions, intelligent forecasts & wisdom of the wise. All these are good upto an extent but what really matters for a child of God is his ability to trust in the faithfulness of his God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Job 36:15) Isn't it true that God speaks to us in our afflictions more than at other times? Suffering in our lives makes us think more about God and our relationship with him. Eventually when he delivers us from the suffering, we would have learnt more spiritual truths that would help us live as better Christians.

In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade--kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. (1 Peter 1:3-5) If you have experienced the new birth in Jesus Christ, you have entered into a living hope and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade, kept in heaven for you. Nothing greater than this for anyone living on earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Psalm 4:7) Material possessions can only give temporary joy and satisfaction. The joy that David here speaks of is one that he received because of his intimate relationship with God and God has promised that to each one of us. A Father- Child relationship with God can bring us that great joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Psalm 9:9) As believer's we all go through times when we feel distressed, lonely, leftout, despised, oppressed, troubled or depressed. Many such negative experiences make life difficult for us to live. During those times we can rely on this wonderful promise from the Psalms. Truly, the Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Psalm 9:10) Yes! There's power in the name of Jesus. As Peter the Apostle said after a 40 year old lame man was healed at the temple..."It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him, as you can all see. (Acts 3:16)" Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him can save, heal and deliver even today. Believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Psalm 18:28) Afraid that the enemy may extinguish your lamp i.e. your witness for Christ or anything good realted to your life. Fear not!
