Psalm 91 is awesome for protection
John chapters 14-17 are some of the best teachings in all the Bible

What a lovely idea!
How about Proverbs 3 v 5 and 6 In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3 v 23
ABOVE ALL ELSE guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.
Psalm 36 v 7-9 How precious is your unfailing love, O God! All humanity finds shelter in the shadow of Your wings. You feed them from the abundance of your house, letting them drink from your rivers of delight. For you are the fountain of life, the light by which we see.

Numbers 23:24
"23:24 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain."

Yes!
(by the way, I am honored that he would go and fight!)
THANKS!
Isaiah 9:6-7
6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor,
The mighty God,
The everlasting Father,
The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no bend, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever.
The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
