Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.

The eyes of the arrogant will be humbled and human pride brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

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.

The LORD reigns, he is robed in majesty; the LORD is robed in majesty and armed with strength; indeed, the world is established, firm and secure.

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!”

Sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things; his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.

Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

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,

Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

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.

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.

He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.

Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?

So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

I call out to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.

But you, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.

Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

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

May my meditation be pleasing to him, as I rejoice in the LORD.

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.
