The Lord is My Strength Exo 15:2-3
(KJV)
The LORD is my
strength and song,
and he is become my salvation:
He is my God, and I will
prepare Him an habitation;
my father's God, and I will exalt
Him.
{3} The LORD is
a man of war:
the LORD is his
name.
Isaiah 40:31
Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint 2 Sam 22:31-35
(KJV)
As for God, his way
is perfect;
the word of the LORD is
tried:
he is a buckler to all them
that trust in him.
{32} For who is God,
save the LORD? and who is a rock, save our God?
{33} God is my
strength and power:
And he maketh my way perfect.
{34} He maketh my feet like
hinds' feet:
and setteth me upon my high
places.
{35} He teacheth my hands
to war;
so that a bow of steel is broken
by mine arms.
Psa 18:1-3
(KJV)
To the chief Musician, A Psalm
of David, the servant of the LORD,
who spake unto the LORD the
words of this song
in the day that the LORD
delivered him from the hand of all his enemies,
and from the hand of Saul: And he
said,
I will love thee, O LORD, my
strength.
{2} The LORD is my
rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
my God, my strength, in whom I
will trust;
my buckler, and the horn of my
salvation, and my high tower.
{3} I will call upon the
LORD, who is worthy to be praised:
so shall I be saved from mine
enemies.
Psa 19:7-14
(KJV)
The law of the LORD is
perfect, converting the soul:
the testimony of the LORD is
sure, making wise the simple.
{8} The statutes of the
LORD are right, rejoicing the heart:
the commandment of the LORD is
pure, enlightening the eyes.
{9} The fear of the LORD
is clean, enduring for ever:
the judgments of the LORD
are true and righteous altogether.
{10} More to be
desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine
gold:
sweeter also than honey and
the honeycomb.
{11} Moreover by them is
thy servant warned:
and in keeping of them
there is great reward.
{12} Who can understand
his errors?
cleanse thou me from secret
faults.
{13} Keep back thy servant
also from presumptuous sins;
let them not have
dominion over me:
then shall I be upright, and I
shall be innocent from the great transgression.
{14} Let the words of my
mouth, and the meditation of my heart,
be acceptable in thy sight,
O LORD, my strength, and my
redeemer.
Psa 22:19-28
(KJV)
But be not thou far from me,
O LORD: O my strength,
haste thee to help me.
{20} Deliver my soul from
the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
{21} Save me from the
lion's mouth:
for thou hast heard me from the
horns of the unicorns.
{22} I will declare
thy name unto my brethren:
in the midst of the congregation
will I praise thee.
{23} Ye that fear the LORD,
praise him;
all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify
him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
{24} For he hath not
despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;
neither hath he hid his face
from him;
but when he cried unto him,
he heard.
{25} My praise shall be
of thee in the great congregation:
I will pay my vows before
them that fear him.
{26} The meek shall eat and
be satisfied:
they shall praise the LORD that
seek him:
your heart shall live for ever.
{27} All the ends of the
world shall remember and turn unto the LORD:
and all the kindreds of the
nations shall worship before thee.
{28} For the kingdom
is the LORD'S:
and he is the governor
among the nations.
Psa 31:12-24
(KJV)
I am forgotten as a dead man
out of mind:
I am like a broken
vessel.
{13} For I have heard the
slander of many:
fear was on every side:
while they took counsel together against me,
they devised to take away my
life.
{14} But I trusted in thee,
O LORD:
I said, Thou art my God.
{15} My times are in thy hand:
deliver me from the hand of
mine enemies,
and from them that persecute
me.
{16} Make thy face to
shine upon thy servant:
save me for thy mercies'
sake.
{17} Let me not be
ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee:
let the wicked be ashamed, and
let them be silent in the grave.
{18} Let the lying
lips be put to silence;
which speak grievous things
proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
{19} Oh how great
is thy goodness,
which thou hast laid up for
them that fear thee;
which thou hast
wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!
{20} Thou shalt hide them
in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man:
thou shalt keep them secretly in a
pavilion from the strife of tongues.
{21} Blessed be the
LORD:
for he hath showed me his
marvellous kindness in a strong city.
{22} For I said in my
haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes:
nevertheless thou heardest
the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. {23} O love the
LORD, all ye his saints:
for the LORD preserveth the
faithful,
and plentifully rewardeth the
proud doer.
{24} Be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen your heart,
all ye that hope in the
LORD.
Phil 1:18-21 (KJV)
What then?
notwithstanding, every way,
whether in pretence, or in
truth, Christ is preached;
and I therein do rejoice,
yea, and will rejoice.
{19} For I know that
this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer,
and the supply of the
Spirit of Jesus Christ,
{20} According to my
earnest expectation and my hope,
that in nothing I shall be
ashamed,
but that with all
boldness, as always,
so now also Christ
shall be magnified in my body,
whether it be by
life, or by death.
{21} For to me to
live is Christ, and to die is gain.
2 Cor 12:7-10
(KJV)
And lest I should be exalted above
measure
through the abundance of the
revelations,
there was given to me a thorn in
the flesh,
the messenger of Satan to
buffet me,
lest I should be exalted above
measure.
{8} For this thing I
besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
{9} And he said unto me,
My grace is sufficient for thee:
for my strength is made perfect in
weakness.
Most gladly therefore will I
rather glory in my infirmities,
that the power of Christ may rest
upon me.
{10} Therefore I take
pleasure in infirmities,
in reproaches, in
necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's
sake:
for when I am weak, then am
I strong.
