Life can be quite challenging a times, and sometimes all we need is a little dose of some kind of positivity to enable us keep going or help us get through all we are being faced with. And what better way to stay positive during those times than to meditate on God’s promises for us through his word.
Here are a few of the bible verses and quotes that are inspiring me right now on my life’s journey!
1. Zephaniah 3:17
The Lord your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”
2. Psalms 16:8
I have set the Lord always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.
3. John 16:33
These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
4. Psalms 46:1-3
God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling.
5. John 14:27
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
6. Matthew 6:30-33
Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’
For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
7. Psalms 28:7
The Lord is my strength and shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I will praise Him.
8. Luke 2:52
And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
9. Psalms 92:12-14
The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing
10. Psalms 34:19-20
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all. He guards all his bones; Not one of them is broken.
11. Psalms 56:3-4
Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You. In God (I will praise His word), In God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me?
12. Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

I'm not a bible reader but I can see how this resonates with some people. Having, hope, inspiration during times of stress etc. is a great thing to have.
I am not religious but I do understand why people turn to religion in order to find strength. And that is totally ok, as long as there is something that you feel it guides and inspires you.
These are very interesting and inspiring to read even if I am not overly religious. I believe in good morals, peace and love generally and quotes like this do have such a meaningful, powerful and beautiful message to them.
I try to use bible verses as ammunition when I'm in stressful or fearful situations. My favorite is not actually on your list. Phil 4:13 – I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. That helps me to know – I can do anything I put my beautiful little mind too.
The Psalms are very often my go-to when the pressure builds up to exploding. John has been another book that my husband and I had gone through together. We have faced some tough times and needed the encouragement. I did like this quote too, "There is no need to be perfect to inspire others. Let people get inspired by how you deal with your imperfections." – Unknown
I'm not a very religious person, but there are certain quotes, mantras, & affirmations that I like to read. I try to read affirmations from my vision board every day.
Number 5 sounds like something I really need to repeat to myself more often! I liked reading others too, I haven't heard most of them before. Thanks!
Psalms 16:8 has always been one of my favorite verses. As long as the Lord is before us we cannot fail!
These quotes are really inspiring. We don't have a lots of opportunities to come across them on internet. Thanks for sharing!
I particularly love number 5 the one about peace! Very inspiring, and a good reminder!
These are really inspiring bible verses. I love this verse Psalms 56:3-4 whenever I am afraid I trust in god. God strengthen us!
Thanks for this. Pinned for future reference. I always look for verses to read when i'm in different situations so this list will help.
This is so great to read on even though we dont practice it but they really give us strength.
your post actually moved me to subscribe to your blog. this was so needed for me today – each and every one of these speaks to me on a different level. Faith is such a beautiful thing!
Really inspiring quotes. I always read bibles and I love it. It motivates me also to do our daily task. Very good reminder.
This is a very unique and beautiful post. I really feel like any one of these bible verses can speak to and touch someone.
