here's a list of mine, more can be added here
whenever I'm tempted to ask "why do I even want God in the first place?"
we love because he loved us (1 John 4:19)
when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself (John 12:32)
anytime I feel that I can't even come to God or feel apart from God
For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all thing (1 John 3:20)
God is capable of compassionate understanding, and John 3:17
anytime I doubt my sincerity, for assurance of salvation
With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible (Matthew 19:26)
read my testimony to see why
none has been lost (John 17:12)
Therefore, salvation cannot be lost
my favorite rhetorical question on salvation topics: isn't it a nice feeling when doubts just "be quiet"? (assured and etheral) <-- my intent for this thread is to collect the best of bible verses, to "armor up" for all possible "case scenarios" life can throw at us, given how struggle for assurance is so common, this question have "earned it's place" in my book, hence "rejoice that your name is written in heaven" (Luke 10:20)
when being overwhelmed by temptation
Luke 10:20 - rejoice (keyword: rejoice) that your name is written in heaven
1 Cor 10:13 - God will give us a way out
when feeling thankless
meditate on Phil 4:8 - whatever is good, of good report, etc.
for faith
faith comes by hearing, and hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17)
for meditative prayer
God even exist in the void of Genesis 1:2 (even Genesis 1:2 becomes interesting!)
be faithful in prayer (Romans 12:12)
this is self-explanatory
when I want spiritual efficiency, to rely on God instead of struggling
the Lord will fight for you, you only need to be still (Exodus 14:14)
to praise God
exalted (Psalms 46:10)
utmost! (Hebrews 7:25)
to remind me why context is important
Thou shall not (Exodus 20) rightly divide the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15) lol
to keep believing in God
prefrontal cortex (see @calibob for more information) and Psalms 139:14
the balanced understanding of God's character
John 8:7 and John 8:11
to remind me the purpose of how prayer can serve others
Eph 6:18 - keep on praying for all the Lord's people
incase if Christians are being accused of being narrowed-mineded, and also for witnessing and being a testimony
Romans 11:14 - to provoke the envy to save the unsaved
if no one desires Jesus with burning envy, as long as there's alternative, no one will come to Jesus, no one will get saved
when being persecuted by the anger of other people
the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God (James 1:20)
and Romans 12:19
to be encouraged for witnessing and being a testimony
few are chosen (Matthew 22:14) (hint: few is greater than none, therefore there is hope)
anytime I worry about "being held accountable for what I know about the bible" and satan can abuse that worry to deter me from reading the bible
Do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is (Eph 5:17)
and I can imagine God being a commander in chief, with authoritative command on that verse, and I say "yes sir" with a soldier like salute
and, God want us to understand his will, and that comes from the Bible, so God wants us to be knowledgable about the Holy Bible as well.
and this explains why I have Eph 5:17 as my favorite verse in the about me section of my profile
and more will be added as I learn more about God, the Bible, and I want to know, what are some of your favorite verses relative to each situations you've been through, please list them in the comment section down below
