Quietness

Ecclesiastes 9 (KJV)

17 The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.




Proverbs 17 (KJV)

17 Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife (fighting, disagreements).

Scriptures For Those Who Suffer With Anxiety, Part 2

2 Peter 1 (KJV)

5 And beside this, giving all diligence (concentration), add to your faith virtue (integrity); and to virtue (integrity) knowledge;

6 And to knowledge temperance (self-control); and to temperance (self-control) patience; and to patience godliness;

7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

2 Corinthians 4 (KJV)

16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

GOD DOES NOT WANT YOU TO SUFFER
Exodus 3 (KJV)

7 And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters (a person who assigns work to other people.  One that imposes a task or burdens another.); for I know their sorrows;





Deuteronomy 26 (KJV)

6 And the Egyptians evil entreated (pestered) us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:
7 And when we cried unto the Lord God of our fathers, the Lord heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression:
8 And the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:
9 And he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, even a land that floweth with milk and honey.





CRY OUT TO GOD IN PRAYER WHEN YOU FEEL OVERWHELMED. 
2 Chronicles 33 (KJV)

12 And when he was in affliction, he besought the Lord his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,
13 And prayed unto him: and he was intreated (earnest request, petition) of him, and heard his supplication (the action of asking or begging for something earnestly or humbly.), and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the Lord he was God.





THIS IS HOW I FEEL WHEN ANXIETY HITS 
Job 30 (KJV)

15 Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passeth away as a cloud.
16 And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me.
17 My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews (a piece of tough fibrous tissue uniting muscle to bone or bone to bone; a tendon or ligament.) take no rest.





GOD WILL DELIVER YOU FROM YOUR ANXIETIES
Psalm 34 (KJV)

17 The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite (humble, repentant) spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.





Psalm 22 (KJV)

24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred (despised) the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.




Psalm 88 (KJV)

9 Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: Lord, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.

Proverbs 8 (KJV)

1 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination (disgrace) to my lips.
8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward (difficult) or perverse (awkward)  in them.
9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.

11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward ((of a person) difficult to deal with; contrary.) mouth, do I hate.

14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.

20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:

25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the Lord.
36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

Psalm 57 (KJV)

1 Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.
3 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach (address (someone) in such a way as to express disapproval or disappointment.)  of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.

Psalm 34 (KJV)

4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile (clever or crafty character or behavior) .

14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

15 The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
16 The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

17 The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

18 The Lord is nigh (near) unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite (repentant) spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.

22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate (deserted).
