Romans 4:18-24
NLT
18 Even when there was no reason for
hope, Abraham kept hoping—believing that he would become the father
of many nations. For God had said to him, “That’s how many
descendants you will have!”
19 And Abraham’s faith did not
weaken, even though, at about 100 years of age, he figured his body
was as good as dead—and so was Sarah’s womb.
20 Abraham never wavered in
believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in
this he brought glory to God.
21 He was fully convinced that God
is able to do whatever He promises.
22 And because of Abraham’s faith,
God counted him as righteous.
23 And when God counted him as
righteous, it wasn’t just for Abraham’s benefit. It was recorded
24 for our benefit, too, assuring us
that God will also count us as righteous if we believe in Him, the
one who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.

James 4:8,10 KJV
8 Draw nigh to God, and He will draw
nigh to you..."

The Lord, and He shall lift you up.
I Peter 4:12,13
KJV
12 Beloved, think it not strange
concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some

do, yet He did not sin.

throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we
will find grace to help us when we need it most.
