2 Corinthians 1:3-11
3Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
4Who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them who are in any trouble, by the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted of God.
5For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. 6If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
8We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, a about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. 9Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. 10He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, 11as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favour granted us in answer to the prayers of many.
GOD cares for me in all my tribulations. He is there to encourage us, help us, relives us, and supports us. He is the God of all my comfort.
Psalm 23:1-3
1The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

you ruins of Jerusalem,

so will I comfort you;
and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.”
Isaiah 61:1-2
1The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
2to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
John 14:16-18
16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— 17the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. 18I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

GOD bless us, we are dwelt by the Holy Spirit the Comforter. We have the GOD of all comfort living inside of us. Our daily Comforter. GOD of all comfort is saying keep going. He will see us through it till the end of the tunnel.
LORD Jesus will never put you down. No matter how often we stumble and fall in life GOD of comfort is there to remind us that we will make it because He is with us.
Psalm 19:71-73
71It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn your statutes.
72The law of your mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
75I know, O LORD, that your judgments are right, and that you in faithfulness have afflicted me.
Our tribulation – Intense pressure, inescapable. We feel trapped, hopeless, and helpless.
GOD is speaking to our spirit saying, don’t give up I am with you, it is My strength, My power, I will never leave you nor forsake you.
GOD is enough.
GOD comforts us for other people in mind. We are comfort carrier so that we may be able to comfort others who are afflicted. We carry the message. Just be there. Your healing will come when you help somebody else.
GOD will see you through it and you will come out on the mountain top.
