I love the word uphold. As I was meditating on Psalm 119:116-117 I thought of these words. Sustain. Secure. Undergird. Strengthen. Reinforce. Fortify. Support. The verses say, “Uphold me according to Your word, that I may live; and do not let me be ashamed of my hope. Hold me up, and shall be safe, and I shall observe Your statutes continually.”

I love Isaiah 41:10 also. It says, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” There is no greater security than to know that our lives are hidden with Christ in God. Colossians. 3:3.

Here is a verse that fortifies me when I am facing impossible situations. Psalm 63:8 Amplified says, “My whole being follows hard after You and clings closely to You; Your right hand upholds me.”
