Answer 1

hi
Pour yourself into Jesus and He will pour Himself into you. Starve your fleshly desires and feed your spirit. Sing praise and worship songs. Focus on uplifting Bible verses and thank the Lord for positive changes in your life.

The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know your name will trust in you,
for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:9-10

Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Psalm 25:4-5

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:28-31

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. Romans 5:1-5

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Romans 12:12

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.
2 Corinthians 1:35

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Phillipians 4:4-9

I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength. Phillipians 4:13

**Father, I ask that your bring peace, hope, and restoration into Hopeee's life. I pray that his/her life will be submitted to you daily and that he/she will seek Your perfect will for his/her life. I pray that Hopeee receives the joy you have promised us In Jesus name, Amen**

Answer 2

Some that have helped me are Matthew 11:28-30, John, chapters 13-17 (fast paced and easy to read); Psalms 23, 25, 27, and 71. The others have listed a lot of Scripture passages and believe me, they're all good. These passages have helped me, too, when I've had my bouts with depression and other problems.

A lot of us believers are praying for you. Please hang in there and look to Jesus--He has never let any of us down yet, and He's not about to start either!

Answer 5

I hope this helps.

Matthew 6:25-34 (King James Version)
25Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

26Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

27Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

28And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

29And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

30Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

31Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

32(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

33But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

34Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Answer 8

Psalm 34:17,18:"17 They cried out, and Jehovah himself heard, And out of all their distresses he delivered them. Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart; And those who are crushed in spirit he saves."

Psalm 32:7: "You are a place of concealment for me; you will safeguard me from distress itself. With joyful cries at providing escape you will surround me."

Isaiah 41:10:"Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not gaze about, for I am your God. I will fortify you. I will really help you. I will really keep fast hold of you with my right hand of righteousness."

Psalm 55:22:"Throw your burden upon Jehovah himself, And he himself will sustain you. Never will he allow the righteous one to totter."

It's important at times like these to go to God in prayer and "throw your burden" on him. Tell him how you feel, and ask him to give you comfort. Use his name: Jehovah. (Psalm 83:18)
