Which New Testament verses align with Proverbs 10:30's message of the righteous' stability? Proverbs 10:30’s Promise “The righteous will never be shaken, but the wicked will not remain in the land.” At its heart, this verse celebrates God-given stability for those counted righteous. Jesus on a Rock-Solid Foundation • Matthew 7:24-25 — “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. … yet it did not fall, because its foundation was on the rock.” • Luke 6:48 echoes the same picture of an unshakable house anchored on Christ. Kept Secure by the Good Shepherd • John 10:28-29 — “I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand. … No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand.” • Jude 24 — “Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless ….” Nothing Can Shake Us from God’s Love • Romans 8:38-39 — “Neither death nor life … nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” • 2 Timothy 2:19 — “Nevertheless, God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: ‘The Lord knows those who are His.’” Steadfast Call to Believers • 1 Corinthians 15:58 — “Be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord.” • Colossians 1:23 — “…established and firm, not moved from the hope of the gospel.” • 2 Thessalonians 3:3 — “But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.” An Unshakable Kingdom • Hebrews 12:28 — “Therefore, since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be filled with gratitude ….” • Revelation 3:12 — “I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will never again leave it.” Guarded Until Glory • 1 Peter 1:4-5 — “…to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God’s power….” • Philippians 1:6 — “…He who began a good work in you will continue to perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.” Bringing It Together The New Testament consistently mirrors Proverbs 10:30: those made righteous through Christ stand on an immovable foundation, kept by God’s power, and destined for a kingdom that cannot be shaken. |
