As we go about our daily prayers and church services, there are those verses from the bible which when incorporated in our prayers, stirs God and the host of Heaven into coming to our aide.
Some examples are:
Romans 8:38,For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Mattew 28:20,Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Nehemia 8:10 Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.

Psalm 34:10b Those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.

Exodus 33:14 My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.

Deuteronomy 31:8 It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

2 Timothy 1:7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.
2 Corinthians 12:9 My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness
Hebrews 4:16 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

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 you God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
Etc.
A lesson i learned quite recently is never to fear or worry because God hath said it and i should believe his word.
We should pray lest we be tempted. The joy of the lord is our strength.Somebody scream halleluyahhh....
Hallelujah!!
