Confiança
A confiança em Deus é âncora da alma em tempos de tempestade. Quem confia no Senhor não será abalado — porque o Deus fiel sustenta, protege e guia os que nele esperam.
Confiança inabalável
Tudo posso naquele que me fortalece. O meu Deus suprirá toda necessidade. Quem confia não será confundido.
I may all things in him that comforteth me.
And my God [ful]fill all your desire, by his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
trusting this same thing, that he that began in you a good work, shall perform it till into the day of Jesus Christ.
What then shall we say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us?
neither height, neither deepness, neither any other creature, may part us from the charity of God, that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
He that dwelleth in the help of the highest God; shall dwell in the protection of God of heaven.
He shall say to the Lord, Thou art mine up-taker, and my refuge; my God, I shall hope in him.
Mine health, and my glory is in God; God is the giver of mine help, and mine hope is in God.
Of the highness of day I shall dread; but God, I shall hope in thee.
In God I shall praise my words; I hoped in God, I shall not dread what thing flesh, or man, shall do to me.
Fundamento de confiança
Deus não é homem para que minta. Todas as suas promessas são firmes. Confiar em Deus é segurança absoluta.
God is not a man, that he lie, neither he is as the son of a man, that he be changed; therefore he hath said, and shall he not do it? he hath spoken, and shall he not fulfill it?
Be your manners without covetousness, satisfied with present things; for he said, I shall not leave thee, neither forsake,
so that we say trustily, The Lord is an helper to me; I shall not dread what a man shall do to me.
Have thou the form of whole-some words, which thou heardest of me in faith and love in Christ Jesus.
Therefore thou, my son, be comforted in grace that is in Christ Jesus.

In all thy ways think on him, and he shall dress thy goings.

Show thy works to the Lord; and thy thoughts shall be addressed.
A learned man in word shall find goods; and he that hopeth in the Lord is blessed.
He that dreadeth a man, shall fall soon; he that hopeth in the Lord, shall be raised [up].
Confiar em todas as coisas
Não pertenço ao mundo — minha cidadania é do céu. A confiança cristã repousa na fidelidade de Deus, não nas circunstâncias.

When thou shalt go by waters, I shall be with thee, and floods shall not cover thee; when thou shalt go in fire, thou shalt not be burnt, and flame shall not burn in thee.
And this is the trust which we have to God [or that we have in God], that whatever thing we ask after his will, he shall hear us.
And this is the trust which we have to God [or that we have in God], that whatever thing we ask after his will, he shall hear us.
