They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint. - This is what the Lord says to Zerubbabel: It is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
- And Nehemiah continued, “Go and celebrate with a feast of rich foods and sweet drinks, and share gifts of food with people who have nothing prepared. This is a sacred day before our Lord. Don’t be dejected and sad, for the joy of the Lord is your strength!”
- For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.
- A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
- What joy for the nation whose God is the Lord,
whose people he has chosen as his inheritance.
It is better to be godly and have little
than to be evil and rich.
For the strength of the wicked will be shattered,
but the Lord takes care of the godly.And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.
