- For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
- Without counsel purposes are disappointed:
but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. - Commit thy works unto the Lord,
and thy thoughts shall be established. - There are many devices in a man's heart;
nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand. - A man's heart deviseth his way:
but the Lord directeth his steps. - Grant thee according to thine own heart,
and fulfil all thy counsel. - O Lord, thou art my God;
I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name;
for thou hast done wonderful things;
thy counsels of old
are faithfulness and truth. - Surely the Lord God will do nothing,
but he revealeth his secret
unto his servants the prophets. - The Lord preserveth the strangers;
he relieveth the fatherless and widow:
but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. - The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me:
thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever:
forsake not the works of thine own hands. - And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
- For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
- Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord,
and whose hope the Lord is.
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters,
and that spreadeth out her roots by the river,
and shall not see when heat cometh,
but her leaf shall be green;
and shall not be careful in the year of drought,
neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,
and his ears are open unto their cry. And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.Next verse!With image
