If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this:

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

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

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.

“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.”

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.

Blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.

My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.

Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.

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.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?

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.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.

May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you. May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion.

Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.

The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer. All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish; they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.

When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.

My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior— from violent people you save me.
