He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; he seats them with princes, with the princes of their people. (Psalm 113:7,8)
Feeling "down in the dumps?" There's hope for you because this verse says so. Putting in a lot of effort but failing? There's hope for you because the Lord Jesus has not abandoned you. He's planning new things for you. Are you willing to take up the plans he has jotted out for you and start afresh?
The Bible says,
"He does not take his eyes off the righteous; he enthrones them with kings and exalts them forever. (Job 36:7)"
No, he has not forgotten you. He says,
"Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! (Isaiah 49:15)"
Well, that should give you fresh hope.
If you are still not convinced, read this:
"Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed," says the LORD, who has compassion on you. (Isaiah 54:10)"
The purists may say that this promise was for a nation. I say, today it's for you. Will you accept it?
One more thing: Don't fear the enemy! Who says so??
The Lord says,
"No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me," declares the LORD. (Isaiah 54:17)"
