Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. 

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

(Jesus has personally suffered rejection from the Father, so that I can be accepted by Him and so that I will never be forsaken again by Him. This is one of the great exchanges on the Cross: His rejection for my acceptance)

But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.  

God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.  

It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.  

They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.  

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?  

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?  

(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.  

For the Lord loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.  

Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about.  

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,  

That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.  

And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be full.  

Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
