Changing the world, one WORD at a time…

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,

Righteousness guards the person of integrity,
    but wickedness overthrows the sinner.

There is no one holy like the Lord;
    there is no one besides you;
    there is no Rock like our God.

Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools. This too is meaningless.

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

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

And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

You make known to me the path of life;
    you will fill me with joy in your presence,
    with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

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,

Fear of man will prove to be a snare,
    but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.

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

A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,
    is God in his holy dwelling.

For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.

And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

He was despised and rejected by mankind,
    a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.
Like one from whom people hide their faces
    he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an examplefor the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
