By reading, meditating and studying Gods word we receive strength, encouragement and hope for every situation we face from God.

Comfort in the time of Loneliness
Psalm 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures: he leads me beside the still waters. 3 He restores my soul: he guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for you are with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies: You anoint my head with oil; my cup flows over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear, for I am with you: do not be dismayed; for I am your God: I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Hebrews 13:5, 6 5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you: never will I forsake you." 6 So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper: I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

COMFORT in time of Sorrow
2 Corinthians 1:3-5 3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort: 4 Who comforts us in all our troubles, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 5 For as the sufferings of Christ flow over us into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. Romans 8:26-28 26 Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities: for do not know what we should pray for: but the Spirit interceeds for us with groans which word cannot express. 27 And he that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he interceeds for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

RELIEF in time of Suffering
2 Corinthians 12:8-10 8 For this thing I sought the Lord three times, that it might depart from me. 9 And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. Hebrews 12:3-6 3 For consider him that endured such opposition of sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. 4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 5 And you have forgotten the word of encouragement which speaks to you as sons, My son, do not make light of the Lords discipline, nor lose heart when he rebukes you. 6 For the Lord disciplines who he loves, and punishes everyone he accepts as a son.

GUIDANCE in time of Decision
James 1:5-6 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that gives to all men abundantly, without finding fault; and it shall be given him. 6 But when he asks he must believe and not doubt. For he that doubts is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. Proverbs 3:5-6 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart: and lean not on your own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

PROTECTION in time of Danger
Psalm 91 HE that dwells in the secret place of the most High shall live under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. 3 Surely he shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. 4 He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings shall you trust: his truth shall be thy shield and rampart. 5 Thou shall not be afraid of the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day; 6 Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the plague that destroys at noonday. 7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it will not come near you. 8 Only with your eyes shall you behold and see the punishment of the wicked. 9 Because you have made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, your dwelling; 10 Then no harm will befall thee, no disaster will come near your tent. 11 For he will give his angels charge over thee, to keep you in all his ways. 12 They will lift you up in their hands, lest you strike your foot against a stone. 13 You will tread upon the lion and the cobra: you will trample the great lion and the serpent. 14 Because he loves me says the Lord I will rescue him. I will protect him because he acknowledges my name. 15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him. 16 With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

COURAGE in time FEAR
Hebrews 13:5,6 5 Let your conversation be without jealosy; and be content with what you have: for he has said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you. 6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man will do to me. Ephesians 6:10-18 10 Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual forces of evil in high places. 13 So take the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand your ground, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand firm, with the belt of truth around your waist with the he breastplate of righteousness, in place. 15 And your feet fitted with the readinessthat comes from the gospel of peace; 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, of which you can extinguish the all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 And pray in the spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.With this in mind be alert and always keep praying for all the saints.

PEACE in time of Turmoil
Isaiah 26:3, 4 3 You will keep him in perfect peace, him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. 4 Trust in the Lord for ever: for the Lord JEHOVAH is everlasting strength: Philippians 4:6, 7 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every thing by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requeststo God. 7 and the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, shall guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

REST in time of Weariness
Matthew 11:28, 29 28 Come unto me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am gentle and humble in heart: and you will find rest for your souls. Psalm 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures: he leads me beside the still waters. 2 He restores my soul: he guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 3 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for you are with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 4 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies: You anoint my head with oil; my cup flows over. 5 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

STRENGTH in time of temptation
James 1:12-16 12 Blessed is the man that endures temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to them that love him. 13 Let no man say when he is tempted, "God is tempting me:" for God cannot be tempted with evil, nor does he tempt anyone. 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own evil desire, and drawn away. 15 Then after desire has conceived it gives birth to sin: and sin, when it is full grown, gives birth to death. 16 Do not be deceived my dear brothers

WARNING in time of Indifference
Galatians 5:19-21 19 Now the acts of sinful nature are obvious, sexual immorality impurity and debauchery, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, discord, jealousy fits of rage selfish ambition dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness orgies, and the like. I warn you as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. Hebrews 10:26-31 26 For if we deliberately keep sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left. 27 But a certain fearful expectation and of a raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.. 28 He that rejected Moses' law died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses: 29 Of how much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of man under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified him and who has insulted the Spirit of Grace? 30 For we know him that has said, "It is mine to avenge; I will repay, " and again, "The Lord will judge his people." 31 It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

FORGIVENESS in time of Conviction
Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins be like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red as crimson, they shall be like wool. I John 1:7-9 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, And the blood of Jesus Christ his Son purifies us from all sin. 8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to purify us from all unrighteousness.
