Discouragement

 

Psalms 27:1-10

1 Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
 

2 Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own   

   lips.
       

3 A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both.
4 Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?

5 Open rebuke is better than secret love.


6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
        

7 The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
  8 As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
  9 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by

   hearty counsel.


10 Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's

    house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far

    off.

 

Psalms 31:24

Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.

 

 Psalms 138:7

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

 

Isaiah 51:11

Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.

 

John 14:1

 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me

 

John 14:27

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

 

2 Corinthians 4:8-9

8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9
Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

 

Galatians 6:9

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

 

 

 

Philippians 1:6

Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

 

Philippians 4:6-8

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.


7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.


8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

 

Hebrews 10:35-36

35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

 

1 Peter 1:6-9

6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:

7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
