For You make him most blessed forever; You make him joyful with gladness in Your presence.
For the king trusts in the Lord, And through the lovingkindness of the Most High he will not be shaken.
Psalms 21:6-7 (NASB)
The time is near
Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and heed the things which are written in it, for the time is near.
Revelation 1:3 (NASB)
Help is from God
How blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, Whose hope is in the Lord his God,
Who made heaven and earth, The sea and all that is in them; Who keeps faith forever;
Who executes justice for the oppressed; Who gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoners free.
Psalms 146:5-7 (NASB)
Homage to the Son
Now therefore, O kings, show discernment; Take warning, O judges of the earth.
Worship the Lord with reverence And rejoice with trembling.
Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, For His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
Psalms 2:10-12 (NASB)
The Comfort of God
“Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.”
2 Corinthians 1:3, 4 (KJV)
Enduring Temptation
“Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.”
