Isaiah 12:2: Behold, God, my Salvation! I will trust and not be afraid, for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; yes, He has become my salvation. For I the Lord the God will hold thy right hand, saying onto thee.
Isaiah 43:2: Fear not, I will help thee when thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. Isaiah.
Isaiah 40:31: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. He did all of that.
