I’ve been reading my Bible a lot and have collected some scriptures that may help you at different parts of your life or your day.
1. For Strength
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” – Philippians 4:13 (NKJV)
Oh how this scripture give strength personally.
2. For Courage When Afraid
“Be strong and courageous… for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”- Joshua 1:9 (ESV)
When you remember that you are not alone, you feel more courage. God reminds me that He is always with me whenever I call on Him. God holds you in the palm of His mighty hand.
3. For Confidence in Life Calling
“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.” – Psalm 32:8 NIV
God holds on to His purposes for you. Remember, He knew you when
God holds on to His purpose for you. Remember. He created you in the womb. God always completes His work.
4. For Wisdom With Decisions
“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God… and it will be given to him.” – James 1:5 (NASB)
God’s power includes access to His wisdom. You need to call on God and ask Him for His guidance when making decisions by asking for wisdom.
5. For Spiritual Power
“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you.” – Acts 1:8 (NIV)
The Holy Spirit lives in us once we are saved through Jesus salvation.as a gift from the Father to us. The Holy Spirit is a source of comfort, power, courage, conviction. That’s only some of what Holy Spirit does for us.
6. For Help When Weak
“My grace is all you need, for my power works best in weakness.” – 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NLT)
When I stopped relying on myself, then God empowers you, then, begin in His power.
7. With Temptation to Sin
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” – James 4:7 (KJV)
When you are fully surrendered to God, His power grows in you. The Devil does not have power over your life when you place God at your center…Try “It is written…” with a verse or two you’ve memorized for power or battle.
8. When You Have Sinned
“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.”— Mathew 5:17 (NIV)
Ask God’s forgiveness for your sin and strength to resist sinning. Ask yourself for forgiveness as well. You are Christian is not a Perfect Christian. Only God is perfect.
9. When You Need Peace
“The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.”- Psalm 29:11 (AMP)
God’s power does not ignore His creation when stressed. He, rather, brings peace in the midst of what is stressing you. You just need to ask.
10. When You Need Discipline
Blessed is the one you discipline, Lord, the one you teach from your law.” – Psalm 94:12
Ask for God’s discipline to learn about your sins against the laws.
Let’s Close with a Prayer from Psalms 138
Psalms 138:1-8 NLT
Psalm of David
“I give you thanks, O LORD, with all my heart; I will sing your praises before the gods.
I bow before your holy Temple as I worship.
I praise your name for your unfailing love and faithfulness; for your promises are backed by all the honor of your name.
As soon as I pray, you answer me; you encourage me by giving me strength.
Every king in all the earth will thank you, LORD, for all of them will hear your words.
Yes, they will sing about the LORD’s ways, for the glory of the LORD is very great.
Though the LORD is great, he cares for the humble, but he keeps his distance from the proud.
Though I am surrounded by troubles, you will protect me from the anger of my enemies.
You reach out your hand, and the power of your right hand saves me.
The LORD will work out his plans for my life— for your faithful love, O LORD, endures forever.
Don’t abandon me, for you made me.” (AMEN)
