Remember me, O LORD, when you show favor to your people

Praise the LORD! O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever. Who can utter the mighty doings of the LORD, or declare all his praise? Happy are those who observe justice, who do righteousness at all times. Remember me, O LORD, when you show favor to your people; help me when you deliver them; that I may see the prosperity of your chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory in your heritage. Psalm 106; 1-5 Yet he saved them for his name's sake Both we and our ancestors have sinned; we have committed iniquity, have done wickedly. Our ancestors, when they were in Egypt, did not consider your wonderful works; they did not remember the abundance of your steadfast love, but rebelled against the Most High at the Red Sea. Yet he saved them for his name's sake, so that he might make known his mighty power. Psalm 106:6-8 The waters covered their adversaries He rebuked the Red Sea, and it became dry; he led them th

I have called you by name and you are mine

Israel, the God who created you says do not be afraid, I will save you, I have called you by name and you are mine When you pass through the deep waters, I will be with you Your troubles will not overwhelm you When you pass through the fire, you will not be burnt The hard trials that come will not hurt you For I am the Lord your God The Holy God, the Holy God of Israel who saves you I will give up Egypt to set you free I will give up Ethiopia and Seba I will give up whole nations to save your life Because you are precious to me And because I love you and give you honour Do no be afraid, I am with you Isaiah 43:1- 5 I will bring an army against Babylon To save you, I will bring an army against Babylon I will break down the city gates and the shouts of her people will turn into crying I am the Lord your Holy God I created you Israel, your Holy King Psalm 43:14-15 I will surely save all who obey me Giving thanks is the sacrifice that honours me And I will surely save all who obey me Psalm

God did by sending His own son in the likeness of sinful flesh,

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the spirit. For the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, That the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the spirit. Romans 8:1-4 For to be carnally minded is death For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, The things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Romans 8: 5-6 But you are not in the flesh but in the Sprit of God dwells in you Because the carnal mind is enmity against G

Does not the potter have power over the clay?

Does not the potter have power over the clay? From the same lump to make one vessel for honour and one vessel for dishonour? What if God wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known endured with much long suffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction. And that he might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy which he had prepared beforehand for glory. Even as whom he called; not of the Jews only but also of the Gentiles? As he says also in Hosea, I will call them my people who were not my people and her beloved who was not beloved. And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, “you are not my people,” there they shall be called sons of God. Romans 9; 21-27 Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel, Children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, the remnant will be saved For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, for the Lord shall make a short work upon the earth.

O Most High, when I am afraid, I put my trust in you.

Be gracious to me, O God, for people trample on me; all day long foes oppress me; my enemies trample on me all day long, for much fight against me. O Most High, when I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid; what can flesh do to me? Psalm 56: 1-4 In wrath cast down the peoples, O God All day long they seek to injure my cause; all their thoughts are against me for evil. They stir up strife, they lurk, they watch my steps. As they hoped to have my life, so repay them for their crime; in wrath cast down the peoples, O God! Psalm 56 : 5-7 Then my enemies will retreat You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your record? Then my enemies will retreat in the day when I call. This I know, that God is for me. Psalm 56 : 8-9 What can a mere mortal do to me? In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid. What can a mere mortal do to me? Psalm 56 : 10-11

In their illness you heal all their infirmities.

Happy are those who consider the poor; the LORD delivers them in the day of trouble. The LORD protects them and keeps them alive; they are called happy in the land. You do not give them up to the will of their enemies. The LORD sustains them on their sickbed; in their illness you heal all their infirmities. As for me, I said, “O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against you.” My enemies wonder in malice when I will die, and my name perish. And when they come to see me, they utter empty words, while their hearts gather mischief; when they go out, they tell it abroad. Psalm 41:1-6 My enemy has not triumphed over me By this I know that you are pleased with me; because my enemy has not triumphed over me. But you have upheld me because of my integrity, and set me in your presence forever. Psalm 41:11-12 Even my bosom friend They think that a deadly thing has fastened on me, that I will not rise again from where I lie. Even my bosom friend in whom I trusted, who ate of my b
