This biblical quote reflects the presence of God. Gen.15:1 After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.

During times of putting your faith to the test, this scripture has held particular appeal to me, Genesis 18:14 Is any thing too hard for the Lord? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son." God's promises are always true, they are yea and amen. He brings them to fruition at his appointed time. Hold on to your faith and the promises of God!

I think you're right. Each chapter ending with a quote from the Bible makes the book really inspiring!

The Lord is close to the the broken-hearted and saves those who’re crushed in the spirit.(34:18)

This verse is actually very soothing,I had to keep reading out loud to relish the feelings.
I felt the energy and the promise of God in my life.

Whenever you feel perturbed,Utter this verse with faith and you’ll feel relief wash over you.

when you fall
John 1:4-9

"In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] it. There was a man sent from God whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world."

You have inspired me to read so many scriptures in the New Testament.
I love this one and it can apply in these times when we were social distancing or otherwise feel lonely.

Hebrews 13:5-6

"Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,

“Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you.”

So we say with confidence,

“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?”

A biblical quote or verse that has given me the assurance of God's presence in the time of difficulty, The name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous run into it and they are saved.

Another verse that speaks of God's ability to provide for His people is Psalm 23. The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

Another verse that speaks about victory with Jesus--Psalm 25:1-2 Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

I like all the verses the author used in the book. I have found a scripture that helped me through crisis, Psalm 91. I find it so uplifting, when we are having fear in life. It is comforting knowing that we are not alone.

I completely agree with you. I do have Bible verses that help me in various situations.
