  • Isaiah 61:1-3
    'The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me,
    Because the LORD has anointed Me
    To preach good tidings to the poor;
    He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
    To proclaim liberty to the captives,
    And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
    To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD,
    And the day of vengeance of our God;
    To comfort all who mourn,
    To console those who mourn in Zion,
    To give them beauty for ashes,
    The oil of joy for mourning,
    The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
    That they may be called trees of righteousness,
    The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.'

     
  • Psalm 111:1-10
    Praise the LORD! I will praise the LORD with my whole heart,
    In the assembly of the upright and in the congregation. The works of the LORD are great,
    Studied by all who have pleasure in them.
    His work is honorable and glorious,
    And His righteousness endures forever.
    He has made His wonderful works to be remembered;
    The LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
    He has given food to those who fear Him;
    He will ever be mindful of His covenant.
    He has declared to His people the power of His works,
    In giving them the heritage of the nations. The works of His hands are verity and justice;
    All His precepts are sure.
    They stand fast forever and ever,
    And are done in truth and uprightness.
    He has sent redemption to His people;
    He has commanded His covenant forever:
    Holy and awesome is His name. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom;
    A good understanding have all those who do His commandments.
    His praise endures forever.

     
  • Isaiah 61:5-11
    Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks,
    And the sons of the foreigner
    Shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
    But you shall be named the priests of the LORD,
    They shall call you the servants of our God.
    You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles,
    And in their glory you shall boast.
    Instead of your shame you shall have double honor,
    And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion.
    Therefore in their land they shall possess double;
    Everlasting joy shall be theirs.
    ' For I, the LORD, love justice;
    I hate robbery for burnt offering;
    I will direct their work in truth,
    And will make with them an everlasting covenant.
    Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles,
    And their offspring among the people.
    All who see them shall acknowledge them,
    That they are the posterity whom the LORD has blessed.”
    I will greatly rejoice in the LORD,
    My soul shall be joyful in my God;
    For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation,
    He has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
    As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments,
    And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
    For as the earth brings forth its bud,
    As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth,
    So the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

     
  • Isaiah 30:23-26
    Then He will give the rain for your seed
    With which you sow the ground,
    And bread of the increase of the earth;
    It will be fat and plentiful.
    In that day your cattle will feed
    In large pastures.
    Likewise the oxen and the young donkeys that work the ground
    Will eat cured fodder,
    Which has been winnowed with the shovel and fan.
    There will be on every high mountain
    And on every high hill
    Rivers and streams of waters,
    In the day of the great slaughter,
    When the towers fall.
    Moreover the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun,
    And the light of the sun will be sevenfold,
    As the light of seven days,
    In the day that the LORD binds up the bruise of His people
    And heals the stroke of their wound.
     
  • Isaiah 62:2-3
    The Gentiles shall see your righteousness,
    And all kings your glory.
    You shall be called by a new name,
    Which the mouth of the LORD will name.
    You shall also be a crown of glory
    In the hand of the LORD,
    And a royal diadem
    In the hand of your God.

     
  • Isaiah 62:11-12
    Indeed the LORD has proclaimed
    To the end of the world:
    “ Say to the daughter of Zion,
    ‘ Surely your salvation is coming;
    Behold, His reward is with Him,
    And His work before Him.’”
    And they shall call them The Holy People,
    The Redeemed of the LORD;
    And you shall be called Sought Out,
    A City Not Forsaken.
     
  • Isaiah 66:19
    I will set a sign among them; and those among them who escape I will send to the nations: to Tarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles.
     
  • Matthew 24:14
    And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
     
  • John 16:16-24
    “A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.” Then some of His disciples said among themselves, “What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I go to the Father’?” They said therefore, “What is this that He says, ‘A little while’? We do not know what He is saying.” Now Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him, and He said to them, “Are you inquiring among yourselves about what I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’? Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy. A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she has given birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you. "And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
     
  • Philippians 2:12-13

  • James 1:14-15

  • 1 Peter 1:6-7
    In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,
     
  • 1 Peter 5:8-10
    Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
     
  • 1 John 1:1-4
    That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life— the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us— that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.

    "Cursed is the ground for your sake;
    In toil you shall eat of it
    All the days of your life.

    Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you,
    And you shall eat the herb of the field.

    In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread
    Till you return to the ground,
    For out of it you were taken;
    For dust you are,
    And to dust you shall return."

The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all he did to prosper in his hand. So Joseph found favor in his sight, and served him. Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority. So it was, from the time that he had made him overseer of his house and all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake; and the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had in the house and in the field.

You shall eat nothing leavened; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread."
     
  • Exodus 13:3-10
    And Moses said to the people: “Remember this day in which you went out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out of this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten. On this day you are going out, in the month Abib. And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this service in this month. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the LORD. Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days. And no leavened bread shall be seen among you, nor shall leaven be seen among you in all your quarters. And you shall tell your son in that day, saying, ‘This is done because of what the LORD did for me when I came up from Egypt.’ It shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes, that the LORD’s law may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand the LORD has brought you out of Egypt. You shall therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.
     
  • Exodus 19:1-8
    In the third month after the children of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on the same day, they came to the Wilderness of Sinai. For they had departed from Rephidim, had come to the Wilderness of Sinai, and camped in the wilderness. So Israel camped there before the mountain. And Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel: ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.' These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.' So Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before them all these words which the LORD commanded him. Then all the people answered together and said, "All that the LORD has spoken we will do." So Moses brought back the words of the people to the LORD.
     
  • Deuteronomy 8:7-14
    For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, that flow out of valleys and hills; a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey; a land in which you will eat bread without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper. When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the LORD your God for the good land which He has given you. “Beware that you do not forget the LORD your God by not keeping His commandments, His judgments, and His statutes which I command you today, lest—when you have eaten and are full, and have built beautiful houses and dwell in them; and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold are multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied; when your heart is lifted up, and you forget the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;

  • 2 Chronicles 32:27-32
    Hezekiah had very great riches and honor. And he made himself treasuries for silver, for gold, for precious stones, for spices, for shields, and for all kinds of desirable items; storehouses for the harvest of grain, wine, and oil; and stalls for all kinds of livestock, and folds for flocks. Moreover he provided cities for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance; for God had given him very much property. This same Hezekiah also stopped the water outlet of Upper Gihon, and brought the water by tunnel to the west side of the City of David. Hezekiah prospered in all his works. However, regarding the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, whom they sent to him to inquire about the wonder that was done in the land, God withdrew from him, in order to test him, that He might know all that was in his heart. Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, indeed they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
     
  • Nehemiah 8:10

  • Job 42:7-10
    And so it was, after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, that the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, 'My wrath is aroused against you and your two friends, for you have not spoken of Me what is right, as My servant Job has. Now therefore, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and My servant Job shall pray for you. For I will accept him, lest I deal with you according to your folly; because you have not spoken of Me what is right, as My servant Job has.' So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD commanded them; for the LORD had accepted Job. And the LORD restored Job's losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
     
  • Psalm 1:1-3
    Blessed is the man
    Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
    Nor stands in the path of sinners,
    Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
    But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
    And in His law he meditates day and night.
    He shall be like a tree
    Planted by the rivers of water,
    That brings forth its fruit in its season,
    Whose leaf also shall not wither;
    And whatever he does shall prosper.
     
  • Psalm 19:7-14
    The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul;
    The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
    The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
    The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;
    The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
    The judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
    More to be desired are they than gold,
    Yea, than much fine gold;
    Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
    Moreover by them Your servant is warned,
    And in keeping them there is great reward. Who can understand his errors?
    Cleanse me from secret faults.
    Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins;
    Let them not have dominion over me.
    Then I shall be blameless,
    And I shall be innocent of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
    Be acceptable in Your sight,
    O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.
     
  • Psalm 25:12-13

  • Psalm 73:1-9
    Truly God is good to Israel,
    To such as are pure in heart.
    But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled;
    My steps had nearly slipped.
    For I was envious of the boastful,
    When I saw the prosperity of the wicked. For there are no pangs in their death,
    But their strength is firm.
    They are not in trouble as other men,
    Nor are they plagued like other men.
    Therefore pride serves as their necklace;
    Violence covers them like a garment.
    Their eyes bulge with abundance;
    They have more than heart could wish.
    They scoff and speak wickedly concerning oppression;
    They speak loftily.
    They set their mouth against the heavens,
    And their tongue walks through the earth.
     
  • Psalm 74:1
    A Contemplation of Asaph. O God, why have You cast us off forever?
    Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture?

     
  • Psalm 74:9-12
    We do not see our signs;
    There is no longer any prophet;
    Nor is there any among us who knows how long.
    O God, how long will the adversary reproach?
    Will the enemy blaspheme Your name forever?
    Why do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand?
    Take it out of Your bosom and destroy them.
    For God is my King from of old,
    Working salvation in the midst of the earth.

     
  • Psalm 78:41
    Yes, again and again they tempted God,
    And limited the Holy One of Israel.

     
  • Psalm 104:1-35
    – Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, You are very great:
    You are clothed with honor and majesty,
    Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment,
    Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain. He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters,
    Who makes the clouds His chariot,
    Who walks on the wings of the wind,
    Who makes His angels spirits,
    His ministers a flame of fire. You who laid the foundations of the earth,
    So that it should not be moved forever,
    You covered it with the deep as with a garment;
    The waters stood above the mountains.
    At Your rebuke they fled;
    At the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.
    They went up over the mountains;
    They went down into the valleys,
    To the place which You founded for them.
    You have set a boundary that they may not pass over,
    That they may not return to cover the earth. He sends the springs into the valleys;
    They flow among the hills.
    They give drink to every beast of the field;
    The wild donkeys quench their thirst.
    By them the birds of the heavens have their home;
    They sing among the branches.
    He waters the hills from His upper chambers;
    The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works. He causes the grass to grow for the cattle,
    And vegetation for the service of man,
    That he may bring forth food from the earth,
    And wine that makes glad the heart of man,
    Oil to make his face shine,
    And bread which strengthens man’s heart.
    The trees of the LORD are full of sap,
    The cedars of Lebanon which He planted,
    Where the birds make their nests;
    The stork has her home in the fir trees.
    The high hills are for the wild goats;
    The cliffs are a refuge for the rock badgers. He appointed the moon for seasons;
    The sun knows its going down.
    You make darkness, and it is night,
    In which all the beasts of the forest creep about.
    The young lions roar after their prey,
    And seek their food from God.
    When the sun rises, they gather together
    And lie down in their dens.
    Man goes out to his work
    And to his labor until the evening. O LORD, how manifold are Your works!
    In wisdom You have made them all.
    The earth is full of Your possessions—
    This great and wide sea,
    In which are innumerable teeming things,
    Living things both small and great.
    There the ships sail about;
    There is that Leviathan
    Which You have made to play there. These all wait for You,
    That You may give them their food in due season.
    What You give them they gather in;
    You open Your hand, they are filled with good.
    You hide Your face, they are troubled;
    You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.
    You send forth Your Spirit, they are created;
    And You renew the face of the earth. May the glory of the LORD endure forever;
    May the LORD rejoice in His works.
    He looks on the earth, and it trembles;
    He touches the hills, and they smoke. I will sing to the LORD as long as I live;
    I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
    May my meditation be sweet to Him;
    I will be glad in the LORD.
    May sinners be consumed from the earth,
    And the wicked be no more. Bless the LORD, O my soul!
    Praise the LORD!

    That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth;

    Sculptured in palace style;
    That our barns may be full,
    Supplying all kinds of produce;
    That our sheep may bring forth thousands
    And ten thousands in our fields;
    That our oxen may be well laden;
    That there be no breaking in or going out;
    That there be no outcry in our streets.
    Happy are the people who are in such a state;
    Happy are the people whose God is the LORD!
     
  • Psalm 147:12-14

    He makes peace in your borders,
    And fills you with the finest wheat.

    For God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to a man who is good in His sight; but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and collecting, that he may give to him who is good before God. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.
     
  • Ecclesiastes 4:9
    Two are better than one,
    Because they have a good reward for their labor.

     
  • Ecclesiastes 11:4-6
    He who observes the wind will not sow,
    And he who regards the clouds will not reap.
    As you do not know what is the way of the wind,
    Or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child,
    So you do not know the works of God who makes everything.
    In the morning sow your seed,
    And in the evening do not withhold your hand;
    For you do not know which will prosper,
    Either this or that,
    Or whether both alike will be good.

     
  • Isaiah 2:2-4
    Now it shall come to pass in the latter days
    Thatthe mountain of the LORD’s house
    Shall be established on the top of the mountains,
    And shall be exalted above the hills;
    And all nations shall flow to it.
    Many people shall come and say,
    ' Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD,
    To the house of the God of Jacob;
    He will teach us His ways,
    And we shall walk in His paths.'
    For out of Zion shall go forth the law,
    And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
    He shall judge between the nations,
    And rebuke many people;
    They shall beat their swords into plowshares,
    And their spears into pruning hooks;
    Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
    Neither shall they learn war anymore.
     
  • Isaiah 12:1-6
    And in that day you will say:
    “ O LORD, I will praise You;
    Though You were angry with me,
    Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
    Behold, God is my salvation,
    I will trust and not be afraid;
    ‘ For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song;
    He also has become my salvation.’”
    Therefore with joy you will draw water
    From the wells of salvation. And in that day you will say:
    “ Praise the LORD, call upon His name;
    Declare His deeds among the peoples,
    Make mention that His name is exalted.
    Sing to the LORD,
    For He has done excellent things;
    This is known in all the earth.
    Cry out and shout, O inhabitant of Zion,
    For great is the Holy One of Israel in your midst!”
     
  • Isaiah 35:1-2

    The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
    The excellence of Carmel and Sharon.
    They shall see the glory of the LORD,
    The excellency of our God.

     
  • Isaiah 40:1-5
    “Comfort, yes, comfort My people!”
    Says your God.
    “ Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her,
    That her warfare is ended,
    That her iniquity is pardoned;
    For she has received from the LORD’s hand
    Double for all her sins.”
    The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
    " Prepare the way of the LORD;
    Make straight in the desert
    A highway for our God.
    Every valley shall be exalted
    And every mountain and hill brought low;
    The crooked places shall be made straight
    And the rough places smooth;
    The glory of the LORD shall be revealed,
    And all flesh shall see it together;
    For the mouth of the LORD has spoken."

  • Jeremiah 12:1-2
    Righteous are You, O LORD, when I plead with You;
    Yet let me talk with You about Your judgments.
    Why does the way of the wicked prosper?
    Why are those happy who deal so treacherously?
    You have planted them, yes, they have taken root;
    They grow, yes, they bear fruit.
    You are near in their mouth
    But far from their mind.

  • Ezekiel 18:25-29
    “Yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair.’ Hear now, O house of Israel, is it not My way which is fair, and your ways which are not fair? When a righteous man turns away from his righteousness, commits iniquity, and dies in it, it is because of the iniquity which he has done that he dies. Again, when a wicked man turns away from the wickedness which he committed, and does what is lawful and right, he preserves himself alive. Because he considers and turns away from all the transgressions which he committed, he shall surely live; he shall not die. Yet the house of Israel says, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair.’ O house of Israel, is it not My ways which are fair, and your ways which are not fair?

  • Ezekiel 44:10-15
    “And the Levites who went far from Me, when Israel went astray, who strayed away from Me after their idols, they shall bear their iniquity. Yet they shall be ministers in My sanctuary, as gatekeepers of the house and ministers of the house; they shall slay the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister to them. Because they ministered to them before their idols and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquity, therefore I have raised My hand in an oath against them,” says the Lord GOD, “that they shall bear their iniquity. And they shall not come near Me to minister to Me as priest, nor come near any of My holy things, nor into the Most Holy Place; but they shall bear their shame and their abominations which they have committed. Nevertheless I will make them keep charge of the temple, for all its work, and for all that has to be done in it. “But the priests, the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who kept charge of My sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from Me, they shall come near Me to minister to Me; and they shall stand before Me to offer to Me the fat and the blood,” says the Lord GOD.
     
  • Joel 3:14-18
    Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision!
    For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
    The sun and moon will grow dark,
    And the stars will diminish their brightness.
    The LORD also will roar from Zion,
    And utter His voice from Jerusalem;
    The heavens and earth will shake;
    But the LORD will be a shelter for His people,
    And the strength of the children of Israel.
    “ So you shall know that I am the LORD your God,
    Dwelling in Zion My holy mountain.
    Then Jerusalem shall be holy,
    And no aliens shall ever pass through her again.” And it will come to pass in that day
    That the mountains shall drip with new wine,
    The hills shall flow with milk,
    And all the brooks of Judah shall be flooded with water;
    A fountain shall flow from the house of the LORD
    And water the Valley of Acacias.

    He who flees from them shall not get away,
    And he who escapes from them shall not be delivered.

     
  • Amos 9:11-15
    “ On that day I will raise up

    I will raise up its ruins,
    And rebuild it as in the days of old;
    That they may possess the remnant of Edom,
    And all the Gentiles who are called by My name,”
    Says the LORD who does this thing.
    ' Behold, the days are coming,' says the LORD,
    ' When the plowman shall overtake the reaper,
    And the treader of grapes him who sows seed;
    The mountains shall drip with sweet wine,
    And all the hills shall flow with it.
    I will bring back the captives of My people Israel;
    They shall build the waste cities and inhabit them;
    They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them;
    They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them.

  • Matthew 4:1-11
    Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread." But He answered and said, "It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God."" Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:
    " He shall give His angels charge over you," and,
    " In their hands they shall bear you up,
    Lest you dash your foot against a stone."" Jesus said to him, "It is written again, "You shall not tempt the LORD your God."" Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, "All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me." Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, "You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve."" Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.
     
  • Matthew 5:14-16
    "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

  • Matthew 15:15-16
    Then Peter answered and said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.” So Jesus said, “Are you also still without understanding?
     
  • Matthew 15:19-20
    For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. These are the things which defile a man, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man."
     
  • Matthew 26:41
    Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
     
  • Mark 4:26-29
    And He said, 'The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how. For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.'
     
  • Mark 10:17-31
    Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, 'Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?' So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’” And he answered and said to Him, “Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth.” Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me.” But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!” And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.' And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, 'Who then can be saved?' But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.” Then Peter began to say to Him, 'See, we have left all and followed You.' So Jesus answered and said, 'Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's, who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
     
  • Luke 6:43-45
    “For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
     
  • Luke 16:10-11
    He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
     
  • Luke 18:9-14
    Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.' And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!' I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."
     
  • John 4:34-38
    Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work. Do you not say, 'There are still four months and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest! And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. For in this the saying is true: ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored, and you have entered into their labors.”

    Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
     
  • John 5:16-18
    For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath. But Jesus answered them, "My Father has been working until now, and I have been working." Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.
     
  • John 6:28-29

    "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

  • Romans 5:12
    Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—
     
  • Romans 6:23
    For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

     
  • Romans 7:14-24
    For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?
     
  • Romans 8:6
    For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

  • 1 Corinthians 11:2-3

  • 1 Corinthians 11:7-9
    For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man is not from woman, but woman from man. Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.

  • 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
    Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
     
  • 2 Corinthians 5:2-4
    For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven, if indeed, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked.

  • Galatians 5:19-21
    Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

    And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

  • Philippians 3:8-15
    Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you.
