- The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit.
You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God. - Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But not with God. Everything is possible with God.”
- So God created human beings in his own image.
In the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them. - Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
- No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.
- Our God is in the heavens,
and he does as he wishes. - Understand, therefore, that the Lord your God is indeed God. He is the faithful God who keeps his covenant for a thousand generations and lavishes his unfailing love on those who love him and obey his commands.
- I have been the Lord your God
ever since I brought you out of Egypt.
You must acknowledge no God but me,
for there is no other savior. - That’s why those who are still under the control of their sinful nature can never please God.
- And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, “God is tempting me.” God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else.
- But God is my helper.
The Lord keeps me alive! - God blesses those who work for peace,
for they will be called the children of God. - And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families of their own.
- Don’t you realize that all of you together are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God lives in you?
- I wait quietly before God,
for my victory comes from him. - Now all glory to God our Father forever and ever! Amen.
- 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.
- Why am I discouraged?
Why is my heart so sad?
I will put my hope in God!
I will praise him again—
my Savior and my God! - Let all that I am wait quietly before God,
for my hope is in him. - Arise, O Lord!
Punish the wicked, O God!
Do not ignore the helpless! - Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children.
- God is our refuge and strength,
always ready to help in times of trouble. - Yes, God will bless us,
and people all over the world will fear him. - So there is a special rest still waiting for the people of God. For all who have entered into God’s rest have rested from their labors, just as God did after creating the world.
- Glory to God in highest heaven,
and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.
