Unless the LORD builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain. In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat – for He grants sleep to those He loves.(Psalm 127:1-2, NIV)
The fear of the LORD leads to life; then one rests content, untouched by trouble.(Prov 19:23, NIV)
My son, do not let wisdom leave your sight. Carefully observe sound judgment and discernment, and they will be life to you... Then you will travel safely on your way, and your foot will not stumble. When you sit down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be pleasant.(Prov 3:21-24, ISV)
Many are asking, “Who will help us to see better days?” LORD, may the light of your favor shine upon us. You have given me more joy in my heart than at harvest times, when grain and wine abound. I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, LORD, enable me to live securely.(Psalm 4:6-8, ISV)
Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.(Isa 41:10, NKJV)
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gently and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.(Matt 11:28-30, NIV)
My soul rests quietly only when it looks to God; from Him comes my deliverance. He alone is my rock, my deliverance, and my high tower; nothing will shake me.(Psalm 62:1-2, ISV)
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, 'He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I will trust.' Surely He will save you from the fowler's snare... His faithfulness will be your shield... You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.(Psalm 91:1-6, NIV)
