Favorite Bible Verses

Post by Missionary »

What are some Bible verses that have meant a lot to you? Why are they some of your favorites?


I'll start: Two of my favorite verses are Job 42:2-3. They first stuck out to me at a time when I was facing a situation where I didn't see how any good could come out of it. These verses reminded me that God was in control and He could do anything. Just because I couldn't see a good outcome with my limited view, didn't mean that God couldn't use the situation for good! God did use it in ways that I never would have thought of! Now, when I face things that look hopeless, I remember these verses and know that God can do anything.

Psalm 56:3-4 is pretty much the most encouraging verse I know! I love the way it sounds sort of like a poem!

I also pretty much LOVE the whole 12th chapter of Romans! [Romans 12]

I absolutely love 2 Corinthians 1:1-13(?) THat passage is called the God of all comfort. It means a lot to me because first, it is a wonderful pasage that reminds you that no matter what you are going throu, you are not alone and that there are other believers around you. Second, this pasage was shown to me when I was going through a really hard time and God used to and the person sharing it with me to comfort me. It was pretty cool. I have other favorites but this is the one that sticks out in my mind right now.
A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ that a man would have to seek Him to find her.

Anything from 1 Corinthians, I absolutely LOVE that book!
And I also love Romans 12, and 2 Timothy. Oh, and Psalms! And Proverbs!


Uh yeah....I have a hard time pin-pointing a single verse. But if I had to, it would be John 3:16! \:D/

Psalm 91, Psalm 103, Psalm 119:9-11, Proverbs 3:5-6, John 14-15, to name a few. Remember, all Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. Not one letter, not the least stroke of a pen will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

My favorite verse changes as I change and grow, but right now it is 2 Cor. 12:9-10, especially the phrase, "For when I am weak, than I am strong"
