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.
13 For all things I have strength, in Christs strengthening me;
19 and my God shall supply all your need, according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus;
6 having been confident of this very thing, that He who did begin in you a good work, will perform [it] till a day of Jesus Christ,
31 What, then, shall we say unto these things? if God [is] for us, who [is] against us?
39 nor things about to be, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of god, that [is] in Christ Jesus our Lord.
1 He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,2 He is saying of Jehovah, My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,
7 On God [is] my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge [is] in God.
3 The day I am afraid I am confident toward Thee.
4 In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I fear not what flesh doth to me.
Fundamento de confiança
Deus não é homem para que minta. Todas as suas promessas são firmes. Confiar em Deus é segurança absoluta.
19 God [is] not a man -- and lieth, And a son of man -- and repenteth! Hath He said -- and doth He not do [it]? And spoken -- and doth He not confirm it?
5 Without covetousness the behaviour, being content with the things present, for He hath said, No, I will not leave, no, nor forsake thee,
6 so that we do boldly say, The Lord [is] to me a helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.
13 The pattern hold thou of sound words, which from me thou didst hear, in faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus;
1 Thou, therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that [is] in Christ Jesus,
5 Trust unto Jehovah with all thy heart, And unto thine own understanding lean not.6 In all thy ways know thou Him, And He doth make straight thy paths.
5 Trust unto Jehovah with all thy heart, And unto thine own understanding lean not.6 In all thy ways know thou Him, And He doth make straight thy paths.
3 Roll unto Jehovah thy works, And established are thy purposes,
20 The wise in any matter findeth good, And whoso is trusting in Jehovah, O his happiness.
25 Fear of man causeth a snare, And the confident in Jehovah is set on high.
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.
2 the things above mind ye, not the things upon the earth,
23 And Jesus said to him, If thou art able to believe! all things are possible to the one that is believing;
27 and he said, The things impossible with men are possible with God.
26 look to the fowls of the heaven, for they do not sow, nor reap, nor gather into storehouses, and your heavenly Father doth nourish them; are not ye much better than they?
33 these things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace, in the world ye shall have tribulation, but take courage -- I have overcome the world.
7 Blessed [is] the man who trusteth in Jehovah, And whose confidence hath been Jehovah.8 And hath been as a tree planted by waters, And by a rivulet he sendeth forth his roots, And he doth not see when heat cometh, And his leaf hath been green, And in a year of dearth he is not sorrowful, Nor doth he cease from making fruit.
2 When thou passest into waters, I [am] with thee, And into floods, they do not overflow thee, When thou goest into fire, thou art not burnt, And a flame doth not burn against thee.
14 And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if anything we may ask according to his will, He doth hear us,
14 And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if anything we may ask according to his will, He doth hear us,
16 and we -- we have known and believed the love, that God hath in us; God is love, and he who is remaining in the love, in God he doth remain, and God in him.
1 Beloved, every spirit believe not, but prove the spirits, if of God they are, because many false prophets have gone forth to the world;
Esperar com confiança
O Senhor está perto de todos os que o invocam. Na espera confiante encontramos descanso e direção divina.
18 Near [is] Jehovah to all those calling Him, To all who call Him in truth.
8 Cause me to hear in the morning Thy kindness, For in Thee I have trusted, Cause me to know the way that I go, For unto Thee I have lifted up my soul.
3 He suffereth not thy foot to be moved, Thy preserver slumbereth not.
3 Trust in Jehovah, and do good, Dwell [in] the land, and enjoy faithfulness,
19 How abundant is Thy goodness, That Thou hast laid up for those fearing Thee,
25 Whom have I in the heavens? And with Thee none I have desired in earth.
4 and let the endurance have a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire -- in nothing lacking;
6 and let him ask in faith, nothing doubting, for he who is doubting hath been like a wave of the sea, driven by wind and tossed,
7 for through faith we walk, not through sight --
