Jer 23 1 "Woe to the shepherds who are
destroying and scattering the sheep of my
pasture!" declares the LORD. 2 Therefore this is
what the LORD, the God of Israel, says to the
shepherds who tend my people "Because you have
scattered my flock and driven them away and have
not bestowed care on them, I will bestow
punishment on you for the evil you have done,"
declares the LORD. 3 "I myself will gather the
remnant of my flock out of all the countries
where I have driven them and will bring them back
to their pasture, where they will be fruitful and
increase in number. 4 I will place shepherds over
them who will tend them, and they will no longer
be afraid or terrified, nor will any be missing,"
declares the LORD

Jer 23 18 But which of them has stood in the
council of the LORD to see or to hear his word?
Who has listened and heard his word? 19 See, the
storm of the LORD will burst out in wrath, a
whirlwind swirling down on the heads of the
wicked. 20 The anger of the LORD will not turn
back until he fully accomplishes the purposes of
his heart. In days to come you will understand it
clearly.

Jer 30 12 "This is what the LORD says " 'Your
wound is incurable, your injury beyond healing.
 17 But I will restore you to health and heal
your wounds,' declares the LORD 22 " 'So you will
be my people, and I will be your God.' " 23
See, the storm of the LORD will burst out in
wrath, a driving wind swirling down on the heads
of the wicked. 24 The fierce anger of the LORD
will not turn back until he fully accomplishes
the purposes of his heart. In days to come you
will understand this.

 2 Cor 614Do not be yoked together with
unbelievers. For what do righteousness and
wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can
light have with darkness? 15What harmony is there
between Christ and Belial? What does a believer
have in common with an unbeliever? 16What
agreement is there between the temple of God and
idols? For we are the temple of the living God.
As God has said "I will live with them and walk
among them, and I will be their God, and they
will be my people."  17"Therefore come out from
them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no
unclean thing, and I will receive you." 18"I will
be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and
daughters, says the Lord Almighty."

1 Peter 16In this you greatly rejoice, though
now for a little while you may have had to suffer
grief in all kinds of trials. 7These have come so
that your faithof greater worth than gold, which
perishes even though refined by firemay be
proved genuine and may result in praise, glory
and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

James 12Consider it pure joy, my brothers,
whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because
you know that the testing of your faith develops
perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work
so that you may be mature and complete, not
lacking anything.

Matt 631 So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we
eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we
wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these
things, and your heavenly Father knows that you
need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his
righteousness, and all these things will be given
to you as well.
