Psalms 55:16-22
As for me, I shall call upon God, And the Lord will save me.Evening and morning and at noon, I will complain and moan, And He will hear my voice.He will redeem my soul in peace from the battle which is against me, For they are many who are aggressive toward me.God will hear and humiliate them— Even the one who sits enthroned from ancient times— Selah With whom there is no change, And who do not fear God.He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; He has violated his covenant.His speech was smoother than butter, But his heart was war; His words were softer than oil, Yet they were drawn swords.Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.

2 Kings 19 14-2 Kings 19 19
Then Hezekiah took the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it, and he went up to the house of the Lord and spread it out before the Lord.Hezekiah prayed before the Lord and said,“ Lord, God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, You are the God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.Incline Your ear, Lord, and hear; open Your eyes, Lord, and see; and listen to the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to taunt the living God.It is true, Lord; the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands,and have hurled their gods into the fire; for they were not gods, but only the work of human hands, wood and stone. So they have destroyed them.But now, Lord our God, please, save us from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that You alone, Lord, are God.”

Acts 4:24-30
And when they heard this, they raised their voices to God with one mind and said,“ Lord, it is You who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything that is in them,who by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David Your servant, said,‘ Why were the nations insolent, And the peoples plotting in vain?The kings of the earth took their stand, And the rulers were gathered together Against the Lord and against His Christ.’For truly in this city there were gathered together against Your holy servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel,to do whatever Your hand and purpose predestined to occur.And now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant it to Your bond servants to speak Your word with all confidence,while You extend Your hand to heal, and signs and wonders take place through the name of Your holy servant Jesus.”

Then Jacob said,“ God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, Lord, who said to me,‘ Return to your country and to your relatives, and I will make you prosper,’I am unworthy of all the favor and of all the faithfulness, which You have shown to Your servant; for with only my staff I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two companies.Save me, please, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, that he will come and attack me and the mothers with the children.For You said,‘ I will assuredly make you prosper and make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which is too great to be counted.’ ”
