(9) Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.

(11) For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

PRAYER

Though I am troubled on every side, yet I will not be crushed by my troubles! Though I am confused, yet I will not give up hope!

  * Indeed I have been persecuted, but God has not forsaken me! Yea, I have been cast down, but I have not been destroyed!
  * Behold, O LORD my God, I have borne about in my body the dying of the Lord Jesus! Therefore, let the life also of Jesus be made manifest in my body! 
  * O God my Father, I have always been delivered unto death for Jesus' sake; therefore, let the life also of Jesus be made manifest in my mortal flesh!

2 Corinthians 7:5-7 KJV

(5) For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.

(7) And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your fervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.

PRAYER

O LORD, my flesh has had no rest, but I have been troubled on every side—without were fightings, within were fears!

2 Corinthians 1:8-11 KJV

(8) For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:

(9) But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:

(10) Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;

(11) Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.

PRAYER

Behold my troubles, O God; for I have been pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that I despair even of life!

  * O LORD, deliver me from so great a death—and continue to deliver me—for I have put my trust in You that You will yet deliver me!
  * God my Helper, raise up interceding helpers unto me, so that by their prayer for me, the gift of God bestowed upon me will cause many people to give thanks unto God!

(4) And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.

(5) Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.

(6) And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
