May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.

Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.

May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.

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.

So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.

Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.

Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.

Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.

As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you; and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.

Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.

Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.

Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”
