Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.

And the gospel must first be preached to all nations.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.

For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?

As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.

Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.

The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”

For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen.

So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.

“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.

Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
