How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? - Hid not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. - The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. - Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. - Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation. - My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

Thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? - Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty. Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. - I saw...the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphims... And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory... Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone. - I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee. Wherefore I abhor myslef. The blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. - That we might be partakers of his holiness. - Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus...let us draw near with a true heart.

The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of God's Decree Chapter 3 PARAGRAPH 5 Those of mankind that are predestinated to life, God, before the foundation of the world was laid, according to His eternal and immutable purpose, and the secret counsel and good pleasure of His will, hath chosen in Christ unto everlasting glory, out of His mere free grace and love,11 without any other thing in the creature as a condition or cause moving Him thereunto.12 11 Eph. 1:4, 9, 11; Rom. 8:30; 2 Tim. 1:9; I Thess. 5:9 12 Rom. 9:13,16; Eph. 2:5,12 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings The blessed prayer of the bride He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Revelation 22 v 20 Even the most enlightened believers are walking here in a darksome night, or twilight at most; and the visits of Jesus to the soul do but serve to make the surrounding, darkness more visible. But the night is far spent, the day is at hand. The day of eternity is breaking in the east. The Sun of Righteousness is hasting to rise upon our world, and the shadows are preparing to flee away. Till then, the heart of every true believer, that knows the preciousness of close communion with the Saviour, breathes the earnest prayer, that Jesus would often come again, thus sweetly and suddenly, to lighten him in his darksome pilgrimage. Ah, yes, my friends, let every one, who loves the Lord Jesus in sincerity, join now in the blessed prayer of the bride - 'Until the day break and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.'
