Psalms 145:20

20: The LORD protects all those who love him, but he destroys the wicked.

And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn, with many brothers and sisters.
And having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And he gave them right standing with himself, and he promised them his glory.

But I lavish my love on those who love me and obey my commands, even for a thousand generations.

My sheep recognize my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them away from me,
for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else. So no one can take them from me.

You who love the LORD, hate evil! He protects the lives of his godly people and rescues them from the power of the wicked.

Love the LORD, all you faithful ones! For the LORD protects those who are loyal to him, but he harshly punishes all who are arrogant.

The wicked will go down to the grave. This is the fate of all the nations who ignore God.

You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked; you have wiped out their names forever.

And God, in his mighty power, will protect you until you receive this salvation, because you are trusting him. It will be revealed on the last day for all to see.
So be truly glad! There is wonderful joy ahead, even though it is necessary for you to endure many trials for a while.
These trials are only to test your faith, to show that it is strong and pure. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold--and your faith is far more precious to God than mere gold. So if your faith remains strong after being tried by fiery trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.
You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him, you trust him; and even now you are happy with a glorious, inexpressible joy.

"Then the King will turn to those on the left and say, 'Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the Devil and his demons!

For the LORD loves justice, and he will never abandon the godly. He will keep them safe forever, but the children of the wicked will perish.

For the LORD watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

Listen to me, dear brothers and sisters. Hasn't God chosen the poor in this world to be rich in faith? Aren't they the ones who will inherit the Kingdom he promised to those who love him?
