What’s Your Go To Scripture When Things Aren’t Going The Way You Want? by Badabada(m): 8:02am On Feb 28, 2021
Mine:

Isaiah 43:1-3 Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you

when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.

And
Jeremiah 32:27
I am the lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for me ?

I know my thoughts towards you, they are thoughts of peace and not of evil to give you and expected end.

Oh....tough question for me in a sense.
I apologize for my "long-winded-ness" aka "epistles" as Nigerians tend to say.
I tend to think of multiple scriptures for certain categories:
I tend to always keep Isaiah 54:17 (KJV) as my protection scripture.

But if things don't seem to be going my way pertaining to a specific situation-- in the way that I fully believe it should go--I go to

Romans 8:28 (KJV)
"And we know that ALL things work together for good to THEM that LOVE God and are THE CALLED according to His purpose."


So looking at that scripture, one can see the conditions--and the allowance of God's will --for whatever needs be in the specfic situation- to take precedence. It's kinda like a selfless-ness that has to join with the believer's perceived thoughts regardless of the outcome.

I have to remember that IF I am daily striving--with the Lord's help--to live a life pleasing to Christ, then I can rest assured on His promises through scripture.
