“For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
I myself will search and find my sheep.
I will be like a shepherd looking for his scattered flock.
I will find my sheep and rescue them..
I will search for my lost ones who strayed away,
and I will bring them safely home again.”
Ezekiel 34:11, 16
The Lord made the earth by his power,
and he preserves it by his wisdom.
With his own understanding
he stretched out the heavens.
When he speaks in the thunder,
the heavens roar with rain.
He causes the clouds to rise over the earth.
He sends the lightning with the rain
and releases the wind from his storehouses.
Jeremiah 51:15-17

Those who listen to instruction will prosper;
those who trust the Lord will be joyful.
Proverbs 16:20
Have you no respect for me?
Why don’t you tremble in my presence?
I,
the Lord,
define the ocean’s sandy shoreline
as an everlasting boundary that the waters cannot cross.
The waves may toss and roar,
but they can never pass the boundaries I set.
Isaiah 5:22
Be exalted,
O God,
above the highest heavens.
May your glory shine over all the earth.

“But I will reveal my name to my people,
and they will come to know its power.
Then at last they will recognize that I am the one
who speaks to them.”
Isaiah 52:6
“I,
yes I,
am the one who comforts you.
So why are you afraid of mere humans,
who wither like the grass and disappear?
Yet you have forgotten the Lord,
your Creator,
the one who stretched out the sky like a canopy
and laid the foundations of the earth.”
Isaiah 51:12-13
Sing for joy,
O heavens!
Rejoice,
O earth!
Burst into song,
O mountains!
For the Lord has comforted his people
and will have compassion on them in their suffering.
Isaiah 49:13
This is what the Lord says—
your Redeemer,
the Holy One of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
who teaches you what is good for you
and leads you along the paths you should follow.
