2020 verses

These are the verses I feel like God has given me for 2020... 

Judging from how many there are, this year evidently is gonna be doozie  😏




Hebrews 13:5 I will never leave you nor forsake you.


Deuteronomy 31:8 Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.


Matthew 7:7-8, 9-11 “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for.
Keep on seeking, and you will find.
Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you.
For everyone who asks, receives.
Everyone who seeks, finds.
And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.

“You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead?
Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not!
So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him.


I have 2 translations for this one...
2 Corinthians 12:9 My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.
My gracious favor is all you need. My power works best in your weakness.


Luke 15:27 what is impossible from a human perspective is possible with God.


Hebrews 10:35-36 So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.


1 Peter 5:6-7 So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God,
& in His good time He will honor you.
Give all your worries & cares to God,
For He cares about what happens to you.


1 Corinthians 1:8c (Jesus) will keep you strong right up to the end.


Matthew 10:39 if you cling to your life,
you will lose it;
but if you give it up for me,
you will find it.


Matthew 11:28 Then Jesus said,
Come to me,
all if you who are weary
& carry heavy burdens,
& I will give you rest.


2 Corinthians 4:8-10 We are pressed on every side by troubles,
but we are not crushed or broken.
We are perplexed
but we don't give up & quit.
We are hunted down,
but God never abandons us.
We get knocked down
but we get up again & keep going.
Through suffering, these bodies of ours constantly share in the death of Jesus,
so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies.


Proverbs 3:5-8 Trust in the Lord with all your heart;
do not depend on your own understanding.
Seek His will in all you do,
& He will direct your paths.
Don't be impressed w/ your own wisdom.
Instead, fear the Lord & turn your back on evil.
Then you will gain renewed health & vitality.



And for the first time, I've been given a song for the year, sung by the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir - here's the link...

My Life is in Your Hands - Kirk Franklin

You don't have to worry
And don't you be afraid
Joy comes in the morning
Troubles they don't last always
For there's a friend in Jesus
Who will wipe your tears away
And if your heart is broken
Just lift your hands and say...

(Chorus)
Oh, I know that I can make it
I know that I can stand;
No matter what may come my way
My life is in Your hands
With Jesus I can take it
With Him I know I can stand;
No matter what may come my way
My life is in Your hands

So when your test and trials
They seem to get you down
And all your friends and loved ones
Are nowhere to be found
Remember there's a friend named Jesus
Who will wipe your tears away
And if your heart is broken
Just lift your hands and say...
My life is in Your hands
