“But give great joy to those who came to my defense. Let them continually say, ‘Great is the LORD, who delights in blessing his servant with peace!’” (Psalm 35:27, NLT).

“God’s name is a place of protection—good people can run there and be safe” (Proverbs 18:10, MSG).

“Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose” (Proverbs 18:21, MSG).
