Stiving to get closer to Jesus every day and sharing what I learn.
Keep away from every kind of evil.
– 1 Thessalonians 5:22 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
Do not try to see how close you can get to sin and still remain pure. That’s a trick of the enemy. Just stay away from it in the first place!
Let your gracious attitude be known to all people. The Lord is near.
– Philippians 4:5 (International Standard Version (©2008))
If you have negative attitudes all the time who will listen to you when you try to talk about what Jesus has done for you?
Pleasant words are [like] honey from a honeycomb- sweet to the spirit and healthy for the body.
– Proverbs 16:24 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
Ever have someone yell at you and it made you physically ill? This verse shows that doing the opposite has better results!
Let wicked people abandon their ways. Let evil people abandon their thoughts. Let them return to the LORD, and he will show compassion to them. Let them return to our God, because he will freely forgive them.
– Isaiah 55:7 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
God is willing to forgive anyone of their sins no matter how great they are. Jesus Blood is more powerful than ANY sin!
The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, And rescues them.
– Psalm 34:7 (New American Standard Bible (©1995))
We who fear and respect the Lord and His power don’t need to despair of danger.
In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.
– John 1:1 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
Before there was such a thing as “time” Jesus already existed in union with the Father and Holy Spirit as One God. The devil tries to make people think Jesus came to be when He was born to the virgin Mary…not true. Jesus created the earth that Mary walked on.
But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: He is their strength in the time of trouble.
– Psalm 37:39 (King James Bible)
When you feel too weak to go on draw your strength from the Lord!
But let all those that put their trust in You rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because you defend them: let them also that love Your name be joyful in You.
– Psalm 5:11 (American King James Version)
Praise Him no matter what the situation. There are others that are going through much worse than you. Pray for them too!
He was despised and rejected by people. He was a man of sorrows, familiar with suffering. He was despised like one from whom people turn their faces, and we didn’t consider him to be worth anything.
– Isaiah 53:3 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
We have a God that knows what it’s like to suffer in the very same things we do. Remember Him on the cross and turn to Him for comfort.
