Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web. (Job 8:14) Wilt thou trust Him, because His strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labour to Him? (Job 39:11) Wisdom is the gray hair unto men, and an unspotted life is old age (Solomon 4:8). Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spake to him in the name of the LORD God of Israel, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel. (2 Chronicles 33:18) When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain. (Isaiah 57:13) He that believeth in the Lord taketh heed to the commandment; and he that trusteth in him shall fare never the worse. Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication. (Psalms 55:1) Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications. (Psalms 86:6) Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years. (Isaiah 38:5) God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble [James 4:6] |
