Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise.

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.

I wait for the LORD, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope.

Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; sing praise to his name, for that is pleasant.

Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west.

And now, dear children, continue in him, so that when he appears we may be confident and unashamed before him at his coming.

In [Christ] and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.

It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

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

When hard pressed, I cried to the LORD; he brought me into a spacious place.

I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts.

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

Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me.

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

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.

As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.
