and he will take care of you.
He will not permit the godly to slip and fall. - But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets.
- For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.
- We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love.
God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. - I thirst for God, the living God.
When can I go and stand before him? - Turn us again to yourself, O Lord God of Heaven’s Armies.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved. - For God saved us and called us to live a holy life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that was his plan from before the beginning of time—to show us his grace through Christ Jesus.
- Yes, God will bless us,
and people all over the world will fear him. - Not to us, O Lord, not to us,
but to your name goes all the glory
for your unfailing love and faithfulness. - For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself and not by human hands.

- Praise the Lord; praise God our savior!
For each day he carries us in his arms. - And don’t let us yield to temptation,
but rescue us from the evil one. - For the word of God will never fail.
- Give us today the food we need.
- And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him.
- But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
- And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.
- But now Jesus, our High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the old priesthood, for he is the one who mediates for us a far better covenant with God, based on better promises.
- For who is God except the Lord?
Who but our God is a solid rock? - For a child is born to us,
a son is given to us.
The government will rest on his shoulders.
And he will be called:
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.
- For who is God except the Lord?
Who but our God is a solid rock?
Keep me safe, O God,
for I have come to you for refuge.Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong. For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires.Next verse!With image
