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 43:2] ↗

Whoever, then, thinks that he understands the Holy Scriptures, or any part of them, but puts such an interpretation upon them as does not tend to build up this twofold love of God and our neighbor, does not yet understand them as he ought. ↗

But now, thus says the LORD, your Creator, O Jacob,  And He who formed you, O Israel,  Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;  I have called you by name; you are Mine! When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;  And through the rivers, they will not overflow you.  When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched,  Nor will the flame burn you.  For I am the LORD your God,  The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;  I have given Egypt as your ransom,  Cush and Seba in your place.  Since you are precious in My sight,  Since you are honored and I love you,  I will give other men in your place and other peoples in exchange for your life.  Do not fear, for I am with you;  I will bring your offspring from the east,  And gather you from the west.  I will say to the north, 'Give them up!'  And to the south, 'Do not hold them back.'  Bring My sons from afar  And My daughters from the ends of the earth,  Everyone who is called by My name,  And whom I have created for My glory,  Whom I have formed, even whom I have made. ~Isaiah 43:1-7 ↗

I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them. ↗

Too often we assume that God has increased our income to increase our standard of living, when his stated purpose is to increase our standard of giving. (Look again at 2 Corinthians 8:14 and 9:11). ↗
