“Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.” - Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
- Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
- God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
- Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
- There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call.
- Heal the sick in it and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’
- For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps.
- I will never forget your precepts,
for by them you have given me life. - For you, O God, have tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried. - The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed and bring me safely into his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
- And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.

the Lord answered me and set me free. - Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last.

- My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed. - Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
- Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
- But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
- And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.
- I am coming soon. Hold fast what you have, so that no one may seize your crown.
- Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
- Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.”

But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.Next verse!With image
