"If God be for us, who can be against us" from Romans

I usually sign in forums with:

Deus nobiscum, quis contra

Same basic meaning. I added it to my website links page near the end - the main God related quote on my business website.

I just found this one this week.
The Lord goes out to fight like a warrior, he is ready and eager for battle. He gives a war cry, a battle shout; he shows his power against his enemies. Issaiah 42:13

Isaiah 6:8 the one that Rnder pointed out, i always loved that one.
and there was another one i also really loved

Psalm 23
1 A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD Forever

The "William McBride" song/peom.

"Ah the sun's shining now on these green fields of France
The warm winds blow gently and the red poppies dance
The trenches have vanished under the plough
No gas and no barbed wire, no guns firing now
But here in the graveyard it's still No-Man's Land
The countless white crosses in mute witness stand
To Man's blind indifference to his fellow-man
To a whole generation who were butchered and damned"

Truely moveing....

Another good one from The Bible:

I have fought a good fight
I have finished my course
I have kept the faith.

"Some trust in chariots, and some in horses;
But we will remember the name of the Lord our God." Psalm 20:7

"A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
A horse is a vain hope for safety;
Neither shall it deliver any by its great strength.
Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,
On those who hope in His mercy...." Psalm 33:16-18

"I will not trust in my bow, nor shall my sword save me.
But You have saved us from our enemies....
In God we boast all day long, and praise Your name forever." Psalm 44:6-8

35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36As it is written:
"For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."[c] 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[d] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8: 35-40

I have found no greater comfort when dealing with a soldier's death than Isiah 57: 1-2

Also I wanted to drop a reference or two.
What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? That was Romans 8:31

What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?
That is also Mark 8:36 but I'm sure ur reference is about the same too.

Hey does anyone know the verse maybe in corinthians about sharing your brothers load? I want to find it.

In Flanders Fields

By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-191
Canadian Army

IN FLANDERS FIELDS the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.



" LEST WE FORGET"
