Thus says the LORD,
"By this
      you shall know
      that I am the LORD..."

Even though
     I walk through the valley
     of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil,
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff,
               they comfort me.

                            Psalm 23.4

(Even through your deepest darkness,
 even through your scary places,
 even though,
God will make a way
         and He is right there with you.)

     and bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt?"

You gave a wide place for my steps under me,
         and my feet did not slip.

God is my security,
                 not circumstances.)

Now I know 
that the LORD will help His anointed;
He will answer him from His holy heaven
    with mighty victories by His right hand.
Some boast of chariots ,
                and some of horses,
but we boast of the name of the LORD our God.
They will collapse and fall,
but we shall rise
                   and stand upright.

                              Psalm 20. 6-8

(God specializes in impossible situations)

Take heed to the path of your feet,
then all your ways will be sure.
Do not swerve to the right or to the left;
turn your foot away from evil.

                           Proverbs 4.26-27

(Follow God fully into it.)
