Scriptures:

James 5:7-8  Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.

8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

Proverbs 21:21  He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.

Matthew 7:20-21  Jesus says ...  Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

21 Not every one that saith unto ME, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of MY Father which is in heaven.

Proverbs 24:6  For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.
 
(Comments from Pam Padgett)  This month I have multiple medical tests and appointments with medical people scheduled.  Recently, when I recognized some fears coming into my mind about these things and began turning to God, I heard from the Holy Spirit, "God will work all of this according to HIS purpose for you".  Scriptures were also given to me, and I was reminded of dreams and a vision given.  I wrote all of these things down, and each time I went over them, there was such comfort and peace.  
 
About that time, I read Proverbs 24:6 and saw so clearly that the various Words I had been given by God in this matter were a "multitude of counsellors" and I was safe from fears as I thought on these things.  Without God's counsel for us in what we're dealing with, we have nothing solid to stand on and can easily fall.  But the counsel God gives us is sure, strong, and safe.  By what God gives us, we overcome.  
 
Proverbs 18:10 The name of the Lord (that given us by God in the matter) is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
