Mark 13:19-20 For those will be days of tribulation unmatched from the beginning of God’s creation until now, and never to be seen again. If the Lord had not cut short those days, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom He has chosen, He has cut them short. John 1:1-4, In the beginning, was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made. In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. John chapter 3: 10-12 (12) “If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?” 1 Peter 5:6-10 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you. Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in your faith and in the knowledge that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering. And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore you, secure you, strengthen you, and establish you. James 4:7-8 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Psalm 91:1-16 (1) Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalm 32:7 You are my hiding place. You protect me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah Walking by the Spirit Galatians 5:15-17 But if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another. So, I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are opposed to each other so that you do not do what you want. Ezekiel 36:16–38; Romans 8:9–11 Romans 8:8-9 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
