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

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.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith–and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God–not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.

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.

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.

Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD.

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

Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves.

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

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

I run in the path of your commands, for you have broadened my understanding.

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

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.

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

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

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

Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves.

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.

In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.

But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”

Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil.

In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil.

In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
