On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice,
"If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.
Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said,
streams of living water will flow from within him."
By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive.

On their way to Jerusalem,
Jesus predicts his death and resurrection
to the twelve disciples.
As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly towards the battle line to greet him. Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone he slung it and it struck the Philistine on the forehead, and he fell face down on the ground.
1Samuel 17:48
Listen! Listen to the roar of his voice
to the rumbling that comes from his mouth.
He unleashes the lightning beneath the whole heaven
and sends it to the ends of the earth.

This powerful verse from Joshua 1 is among the most helpful when facing difficult situations.
It also brings to mind Philippians 4:6

but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,
present your requests to God.
