- How great is the goodness
you have stored up for those who fear you.
You lavish it on those who come to you for protection,
blessing them before the watching world. - I praise God for what he has promised.
I trust in God, so why should I be afraid?
What can mere mortals do to me? - Dear friends, do not believe everyone who claims to speak by the Spirit. You must test them to see if the spirit they have comes from God. For there are many false prophets in the world.
- And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for.
- It is better to take refuge in the Lord
than to trust in people. - The Lord is my strength and shield.
I trust him with all my heart.
He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy.
I burst out in songs of thanksgiving. - Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me.
- You will keep in perfect peace
all who trust in you,
all whose thoughts are fixed on you! - Those who know your name trust in you,
for you, O Lord, do not abandon those who search for you. - Dear friends, if we don’t feel guilty, we can come to God with bold confidence. And we will receive from him whatever we ask because we obey him and do the things that please him.
- But if we look forward to something we don’t yet have, we must wait patiently and confidently.
- Keep me safe, O God,
for I have come to you for refuge. - Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have.
- But I trust in your unfailing love.
I will rejoice because you have rescued me.
I will sing to the Lord
because he is good to me. - Though a mighty army surrounds me,
my heart will not be afraid.
Even if I am attacked,
I will remain confident. - “You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.”
- Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord,
for our hope is in you alone. - The Lord directs the steps of the godly.
He delights in every detail of their lives. - It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
- “For the mountains may move
and the hills disappear,
but even then my faithful love for you will remain.
My covenant of blessing will never be broken,”
says the Lord, who has mercy on you. - I tell you the truth, you can say to this mountain, ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and it will happen. But you must really believe it will happen and have no doubt in your heart.
- He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will not be shaken. - Yet I am confident I will see the Lord’s goodness
while I am here in the land of the living. - And now, dear children, remain in fellowship with Christ so that when he returns, you will be full of courage and not shrink back from him in shame.
- Don’t envy violent people
or copy their ways.
Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord,
but he offers his friendship to the godly.
