I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me.

The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.

You were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.

I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.

“Come now, let us reason together,” says the Lord. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.”

I have set the Lord always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

He Himself was not the light; He came only as a witness to the light.

There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.

But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

It is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him”.

This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.

Through these He has given us His very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.

If you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.

For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict.

For the Lord is good and His love endures forever;
   His faithfulness continues through all generations.

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with Me.

He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”

May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, He is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.

“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.”

The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.

Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end you will be wise.

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–His good, pleasing and perfect will.

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.
