Words of Comfort For When I Get COVID or Am Afraid

“Remember not the former things,
nor consider the things of old.
Behold, I am doing a new thing;
now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
and rivers in the desert." 
(Isaiah 43:18-19 ESV)

“Be not afraid: for I have redeemed you;
Be not afraid: I have called you by name.
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
when you walk through the floods; they will not sweep o'er you;
when you pass through the fire, you'll not be consumed;
You are mine, you are precious in my sight." 
(Craig Courtney Be Not Afraid)

"Because you are precious in my eyes,
and honored, and I love you,
I give men in return for you,
peoples in exchange for your life." 
(Isaiah 43:4 ESV)

"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 NIV)

"In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered me." 
(Psalm 120:1 ESV)

"The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

"The righteous person may have many troubles,
but the Lord delivers him from them all . . .
The Lord will rescue his servants;
no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned."
(Psalm 34:17-19, 22 NIV)

"Remember my affliction and my wanderings,
the wormwood and the gall!
My soul continually remembers it
and is bowed down within me.
But this I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:

"The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
'The Lord is my portion,' says my soul,
'therefore I will hope in him.'

"The Lord is good to those who wait for him,
to the soul who seeks him.
It is good that one should wait quietly
for the salvation of the Lord."
(Lamentations 3:19-26 ESV)
28

“I know that you can do all things,
and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted." 
Job 42:2 ESV)

"I lift up my eyes to the hills.
From where does my help come?
My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot be moved;
he who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your keeper;
the Lord is your shade on your right hand.
The sun shall not strike you by day,
nor the moon by night.

The Lord will keep you from all evil;
he will keep your life.
The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore." 
(Psalm 121 ESV)

"A wonderful Saviour is Jesus my Lord
He taketh my burden away
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved
He giveth me strength as my day
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land
He hideth my life in the depths of his love
And covers me there with his hand
And covers me there with his hand" 
(Fanny Crosby He Hideth My Soul Vs 2 & Chorus)
