COMFORT

→ Matthew 11:28-30        He gives rest

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

 → Psalm 27:10                     He assures

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

→ Romans 15:4                 He teaches

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

 → 2 Corinthians 1:3-4       He comforts

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.

 → Hebrews 13:5b                  Assurance

... I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

→ Psalm 23:4                         No fear

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

 → Psalm 46:1-3              God takes care

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
