God is with you in all that you do.

Genesis 21 (English Standard Version)

19 Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
20 And God was with the boy, and he grew up. He lived in the wilderness and became an expert with the bow.
21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother took a wife for him from the land of Egypt.
22 At that time Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, “God is with you in all that you do.
23 Now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me or with my descendants or with my posterity, but as I have dealt kindly with you, so you will deal with me and with the land where you have sojourned.”

1 Corinthians 10 (English Standard Version)

28 But if someone says to you, “This has been offered in sacrifice,” then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for the sake of conscience—
29 I do not mean your conscience, but his. For why should my liberty be determined by someone else's conscience?
30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?
31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
32 Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God,
33 just as I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

21 He lived in the Desert of Paran. His mother chose a wife for him from the land of Egypt.
22 Around this time Abimelech came with Phicol, the commander of his army, to see Abraham. “God blesses you in everything you do,” Abimelech said.
23 “So swear to me right here and now that you won't betray me, my children, or my descendants. In the same way I've proved I'm trustworthy to you, do the same to me and my country where you're currently living.”
24 “I so swear,” Abraham replied.

1 Corinthians 10 (Free Bible Version)

28 But if someone tells you, “This food has been sacrificed to idols,” don't eat it for the sake of the one who mentioned it and for conscience' sake.
29 His conscience I mean, not yours. For why should my freedom be determined by someone else's conscience?
30 If I choose to eat with thankfulness, why should I be criticized for eating what I'm thankful to God for?
31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, make sure to do everything to the glory of God.
32 Don't cause offense, whether it's to Jews or Greeks or the church of God—
33 just as I try to please everybody in all I do. I don't think of what benefits me, but what benefits others, so that they may be saved.
